The Process Lasso GUI Rules Column

[Batu69]

 

New, or even long-term, users of Process Lasso may not have realized the nifty ‘Rules’ column that is displayed in the Process Lasso GUI. It gives a quick representation of the rules that apply to a specific process, even if those rules are wildcard based. In this post, we’ll define them.

Rules

You can see them in the Process Lasso GUI as shown above.

Tip: You can right-click on column headers to choose which are shown, and also drag them around and resize them!
