  • Named collection - A named collection is the second of three types of Chandler collections. A named collection is a persistent collection of content items. Named collections are a combination of behaviors taken from rule-based collections, explicit collections and program action collections. A named container can start out as a simple explicit collection populated by explicit user DnD? manipulations. Users can add a rule to named collections where the named collection will act as a container that is in turn populated by the rule. Users can then perform DnD? manipulations to add and remove items from the collection that violate the rule. Named collections may exhibit a labeling effect. All items added to the collection can be optionally labeled by any label attributes values specified by the rule. (ie. All items in a rule-based collection defined by All tasks with a status of Blocked would be labeled Blocked.)
