Compare results side-by-side

Compare results side-by-side

You can run two searches side-by-side simultaneously. When multiple pages are open, you can split the current screen to display two or more pages at the same time. For example, you can view multiple search results pages in the client allowing you to compare the results against each other.

* 
NOTE: For optimal viewing, this feature should be used in a dual monitor configuration.
To compare results side-by-side:
1
Run the searches to be compared. On the Search Results pages, we recommend that you hide the Event Details pane and Search Properties tabs so that when the screen spits, you will have more space for viewing events.
2
Right-click the heading tab of one of these Search Results pages and select one of the following commands:
▪
New Horizontal Tab Group - to view two or more panes down the screen.
▪
New Vertical Tab Group - to view two or more panes across the screen.
3
This splits the screen (either horizontally or vertically depending on the command selected) displaying multiple pages in the single view.
4
To move a page from one pane to another, right-click the heading tab of the page to be moved and select Move to Next Tab Group. This will move the selected page to the other pane displayed. To move this page back, right-click the heading tab and select Move to Previous Tab Group.
5
To close the split screen and return to a single pane, use Action | Reset Display.
