Grouping Work Items

You can make queries in TeamLook even more powerful by grouping the work items returned by the search. Work items that have the same value for the field they are grouped by will be listed together in a collapsible list. This allows you customize the layout of the search results in a manner that will make them more powerful.

To group your query results, right-click on the field you want to group work items by at the top of its column, and choose "Group By This Field."

Right-click on field heading at the top of column.

The field that designates the grouping is displayed just above the list.

The results now are grouped by the field that you selected.

You can group by multiple fields to create a hierarchical, collapsible list. Just right-click on the field that you want to create subgroups by and select "Group By This Field" like before. The hierarchy of the groupings is displayed at the top of the search results.

The results are now grouped by two different fields and the heirarchy of those
                 fields is indicated by a graphical representation at the top of the search results.

Click on the grouping field buttons to reverse the sort. Drag and drop to change the hierarchy. Right-click on the field and select "Don't Group By This Field" to remove the grouping.
