Click the Add All button to add all the individual resources in the
right-hand list to the Resource Results list.
There is an important difference between adding individual resources as
children of a group, and adding a group as a child of another group. Adding a
group to the results list does not have the same effect as selecting the group in
the Component Tree, and then adding its children using the Add All button.
When you add a group as a child of another group, all members of the subgroup (its
children) are considered members of the higher level (ancestor) group. As membership
in a subgroup changes, so does the membership in the higher level (ancestor) group.
Resources added individually, on the other hand, remain as children until they are
explicitly removed from the group (or deleted from the EPICenter database).
To search for a resource using the Query function, click theFind button. You can add
the results of your query directly into your Resource Results list by selecting the
resources you want to add and clicking the Add button at the bottom of the Query
window. See “Searching for a Resource”on page 8-23for moreinformation on the Find
function.
