  From the Views page, after you create a custom view, you can update the view EQL definition. Note that if you change the definition, you could affect components that are using the view, as well as other views that may use attributes from this view.
• Guidelines for using EQL to define a view
  The view definition EQL defines the content of the view. When defining a view, you need to keep the following guidelines in mind. For complete details on EQL syntax, see the EQL Reference.
