Visual Query is an interactive method of querying specific criteria in your documents to quickly identify related tags within the context of the document. CONNECT visualization retrieves queries from Asset Information Management Advanced, which are created by users with administrative access in AVEVA AIM Dashboard. More information on creating queries can be found in the AVEVA AIM Dashboard Help.
To get started with Visual Query, load a document and select the Properties button, then select the Visual Query tab.

Enter a query
Visual Query retrieves queries from AIM-A. In the Visual Query field, you can begin typing the name of a query to help filter when you have many queries. Select a query from the list.

CONNECT visualization will return any criteria in the document that match the terms of the search.

Filter tags and modify display options
From the search results, you can select specific criteria to enable or disable highlighting them on the document.
To change the color of the highlighting, select the arrow icon
to the right of the criteria name and choose a new color from the color picker. You
can also adjust the transparency of the selected color.
Note that any changes to the color or transparency are not saved back to the document.
