Canvas

The standard selection rule’s canvas initially displays a message:

Criteria, criteria lists and linked selection rules are described elsewhere in this documentation.

The following options are available when you right click a standard selection rule’s canvas:

•       Add New Criteria List: adds a new, empty criteria list to the standard selection rule.

•       Add Selection Rule: allows you to choose an existing standard or basic selection rule from the RPI file system in order to link it to the current rule or create a criteria list in the current rule based upon it, using the Linked or Embed an existing Selection Rule dialog.  This is described elsewhere in the standard selection rule documentation.

•       Add Custom SQL Expression: this option allows you to add a custom, inline SQL expression to the standard selection rule, using the Add Custom SQL Expression dialog.  This is described elsewhere in the standard selection rule documentation.

•       Paste: only available if the clipboard contains something that may legitimately be pasted into the rule (e.g. a criterion or criteria list).
