Work with Item View

The results of selecting a folder or using a filter to search for an item will be displayed in Item View. Unless you specify otherwise in the filter, all files that apply to the filter will be displayed in all levels below the selected folder.

If an item appears in red

The item may appear in red. In this case, the item information is recorded in the project’s database, but the file is not found.

If it is correct that the file is missing, e.g. by deleting the file, you can remove the information from the project’s database by selecting the item in red and doing “Delete from index”.
