Metaproperty Views

Use the two views below to create an overview page for a metaproperty. This will give your users a more visual way to browse through the metaproperty.

Metaproperty tile view

This view shows all metaproperty options of the metaproperty in a separate tile. The selected metaproperty (option) will not be set as a filter, so the moment you leave this view no filter will be applied.

Metaproperty tile view (with filter)

This view categorizes all metaproperty options of the metaproperty in a separate tile and is very similar to the view mentioned above. The biggest difference is that the moment you click a metaproperty option it will be set as a filter, which will remain applied until you manually clear the filter.
