Studio columns

[SIMION BRAD]

Hi,

 

do anybody know how to change the default columns in Studio or how to save them if changed ?

 

Thanks,

Simion

[Darren Etheridge]

Please add my vote for saving the columns after customizing. Perhaps an administrator role flag?

[GARY YOURMAN]

Please consider changing the design.

 

I'd say it's a good waste of the customer's time to change the settings from what Citrix thinks I want to see to what I really want to see EVERY time I open up Studio.

[Rowen Gunn]

I agree, having to manually setup the columns every time in Studio is frustrating. All the power of XenDesktop and the stupid admin console has to be manually configured to the view you need EVERY TIME YOU LAUNCH IT. This isn't helping anyone.

[Miroslav Blasko]

I would also appreciate the studio to remember this..It is very annoying to set this everytime we open studio.

It's now August of 2018, and this problem persists.   Having to select the columns one wants every time Citrix Studio is launched is frustrating and primitive.   It's also difficult to explain to customers that have switched from the old XenApp 6.5 and earlier versions why the Citrix Studio console is so bad compared to previous versions of XenApp.   Saving the columns is just one thing, but I have an entire laundry list of items - things like being unable to show the session idle time in Citrix Studio (you have to use Citrix Director to see this), and where is the auto-refresh of user data?    XenApp/XenDesktop 7 has been out for YEARS, and the yet the Citrix Studio console is still playing catch-up.   I know it's a different architecture.   I know it's doing both XenApp AND XenDesktop, and I appreciate the difficulties, but from the customer's point of view, if all you've ever known is XenApp, Citrix Studio is just plain awful to work in for basic XenApp management, day in and day out, and Citrix Director is not much better, when compared to the management consoles for previous versions of XenApp.    Sorry to go on and on with a diatribe - but this one's been cooking for a couple of years now.

So now it's May 14, 2020, and I still can't save my customized default view.  Please provide the ability to customize and save my default view.   It seems like a pretty simple fix that should have been part of the original design.  Who came up with the columns in the out-of-the box default view.  Most of them don't have any value to me.

 

While you're at it how about adding a column to show which/what Citrix Desktop is associated with the session.

[Jason Pierce]

I agree 100% that these request to change studio view defaults need to happen sooner rather than later... whoops sorry, its already much later!  What gives?!  As an administrator Studio is used much more than Director so having this ability would be nice to have.

Found this thread after arranging the columns to my liking for the millionth time...

[Wilmer Heredia]

August 2020, same problem for me this is just a waste of time having to customize the columns selection each time Studio restart, Citrix please help!!! 

[Devin Trotter1709160712]

This is absolutely ridiculous and preposterous that we STILL CANT CHANGE something this simple. What a disgusting joke. I doubt anyone will even take this into consideration now that Citrix has been sold.... So stupid.

[Harsaranjeet Kaur]

Hey Simion,

 

We can change the columns by right clicking on the column titles and then select the desired column to be added. You can refer to following link:

 

http://docs.citrix.com/en-us/xenapp-and-xendesktop/7-6/xad-search.html

 

However the changes won't stay and will go if studio is closed. This something by design.

This is very annoying feature. Have spent lots of time finding out why pending update column disappears. Thought that this had something to do with Citrix profile management not preserving settings, problems was on "static" single session VDA machine, but glad i found this.  Hope seeing this in future releases.

[Zach D. Neal]

Is there any plan to address this?  It's still an issue.

[Mike Soucie]

I completely agree that this needs to be addressed and is long overdue.  I'm just moving from 6.5 to 1912 LTSR, not because I want to, but because I'm being forced to.  The main reason for the holding back all these years is the terrible "downgrade" in the usability of the console.

And automatically saving the column preferences should be at the top of Citrix Development lists.

 

[Kareem Logan1709154405]

I got to this thread hoping someone would have a hack on how to save the column change. I agree 200% with everyone. It is soooo annoying. In this day and age, Citrix is saying it is by design and ack like it is a good thing? Give the people what the want Citrix. Hire better developers.

[bernhard schanderl]

@Citrix we need this!!

[Martin Bohusch]

I fully agree. It is really frustrating to select the really needed columns after every restart. Please make it able to save.....

[Sergey Tchemchit]

+1 and same for the Director

[Tony Velarde]

I agree 100%! Are Citrix even monitoring these Discussion forums? Unusual a Monitor has jumped in with a response that they are atleast looking at it.

I also would really appreciate this setting to be persistent.
