Database Products pane

The Database Products pane shows what nodes are in the currently selected database.

Elements

A search bar at the top of the pane allows you to quickly filter and find specific database products by typing keywords. You can also build complex queries by using an equal sign (=) before a Pandas query syntax.

Products View

The Products view displays a list of all the products in the currently selected database, along with some key attributes like: type, unit, and location. If the database is based on the Functional SQLite backend, only products are shown, grouped by their processors.
