List
The List panel is a tab strip over result sets. Each tab holds one set of points, a bag or a set of search results, and the body below shows those points as rows you can click, hover and add to a bag. It is the only panel that holds several result sets at once, which makes it the place to flip between two searches without losing either.
Where to find it
View menu, Exploration section, List.
How tabs appear
You do not create tabs directly. A tab is added for you when:
- you highlight a bag in the Bags panel, which also makes it the active bag;
- you run a search from the map’s search box, which creates a bag of the results and a tab named after the query;
- an extension or the Composer opens a point set through the SDK.
Until one of those happens the panel shows its empty state: No Bags Selected, with the hint to select a bag from the map or use search.
Each tab shows its title and a small type label underneath. Closing a tab is the only per-tab action: hover the tab and click the × in its corner. Clicking a tab makes it current, and the current tab’s points become the map selection.
The two views
The pair of icon buttons at the right of the tab strip switches the body between two layouts. Clusters is the default.
List shows the current tab’s points as a flat list of rows, one per point, each with a colored bar for its cluster. Clicking a row makes that point the current selection and adds it to the map selection. Hovering a row highlights the point on the map.
Clusters shows one scrollable column per cluster in the space, not per cluster in the tab: a color bar, the cluster label, and a virtualized list of that cluster’s points. Clicking a point there selects it alone and flies the map to it. The tab still drives the map selection, so switching tabs while in this view changes what is selected without changing the columns.
Adding and removing points from a bag
Every row in both views carries a clipboard toggle on the right. It adds or removes that single point from the active bag, which is the bag you most recently highlighted or searched into. This is the only place in Mantis where you can take one point back out of a bag; the Bags panel can only add.
Locked bags reject both operations, so the toggle will appear to do nothing on a bag created from the Tree, from a category, or from a search until you unlock it.
Limits
- Tabs cannot be renamed, recolored or reordered, and there is no export.
- A tab shows no point count and no color swatch.
- Tab state is held in memory only. Reloading the page empties the strip; the bags themselves survive.
- Closing a tab closes every tab that shares its title and type.
- The Clusters view always renders every cluster in the space, which is slow to scroll on spaces with many clusters.
