    Expander Rows in Search Result Grid

    The search result grid is set up very much like a spreadsheet with familiar options for sorting and re-ordering. The spreadsheet-like view is helpful to quickly assess your search results.

    However for doing a semi-detailed level-one analysis of each patent, it is helpful to view more information than what is available in the standard view–specifically the abstract and the representative patent image.

    Adding & Removing Filters & Facets

    In AcclaimIP you can add and remove filters from the Refine Panel, and show by default only those filters that you use regularly.

    Filters can be added on the fly without having to reload your search results, so it is a good idea to load only the ones you use the most often to minimize the number of filters you see on the screen and minimize scrolling.
