    Customizing Library Views


    I have this issue, where I added an extra folder to a library and it changed how the library was viewed. I do not know how the change back to the other view, as I much preferred that view.

    I would like it to look like how my Documents Library views, without stating the file everything is in.

    For example:

    Hello Dominic, and welcome to Seven Forums.

    You could click on Group by -> (None) to no longer have your Documents grouped by folders.

    File and Folder Arrangement - Group by - Sort by - Arrange by

    Next, click on View by -> Details to have columns.

    File and Folder Arrangement - Change in Windows Explorer Window

    Hope this helps, :)

Library Views
in Customization

I love the library except for one thing: folder views and specifically the fact that if you open a folder via the library it does not remember which view you used. It works fine viewing the folder any other way than through libraries. It's incredibly frustrating having to change the view every...
