To use the Lasso map control:
- Click the
button. - Click the map.
- While holding down the mouse button, drag the mouse over the area that you would like to include.
- A rectangle displays over the selected area.
- After you have selected the area for which you would like to view records, release the mouse button.
A green rectangle displays around the selected area. The items pane displays data for only those records that are within the selected area. If the selected area includes item records in a location, but the location is not in the selected area, the location data is still displayed in the items pane.
