Configuring Available Refinements display options

The Configuration Options tab of the Available Refinements edit view provides default options for displaying either value lists or range filters. It also controls the target page to display.

To configure these options:

  1. Under List of Values Settings:
    List of Values Settings for Available Refinements
    1. To allow negative refinement by default, check the Negative refinement available by default check box.

      You can override this default for individual attributes.

    2. To allow end users to do a type-ahead search for a value, check the Enable type ahead for filtering checkbox.

      In the Maximum type-ahead suggestions field, type the maximum number of matching values to display.

    3. In the Maximum values to show for a single attribute field, type the maximum number of values that can be displayed.

      If the number of values is larger, then end users must use type-ahead to find specific values.

    4. In the Number of values to display before "Show More" button field, type the number of values to display initially.

      If the number of records is greater than this number, the Show More button displays to allow end users to display the remaining values, up to the maximum values to show setting.

  2. Under Range Filter Settings:
    Range Filter Settings for Available Refinements
    1. In the Minimum width for individual histogram bars field, type the minimum width in pixels for a histogram bar.

      Studio uses this value, along with the minimum increment for a histogram bar and the number of values, to determine the number of bars it can display.

    2. In the Default histogram height field, type the default height in pixels of the histogram.
  3. In the Target page for refinement selection field, type the name of the page to display when end users select a refinement.

    If you leave the field empty, then end users stay on the current page.

    See Syntax for specifying a target page.
