Some search results are too important not to save. LightBox Vision™ enables you to save your search results lists for future reference. You can also open and save your layers as lists which is a convenient way to read field values.
Note:
The Open and Save icons are located at the top right corner of the Results List
Saving a Results List
1. After adding search results to a list or opening an existing list, you will notice it is available at the bottom of your screen with various icons (see documentation for Search and Results List if needed)
2. Click the Save icon at the top right corner of the Results list.

3. In the Save As window select a Folder to save your list to and give the list a name (in the below example, I want to share my list with others on my account so the SHARE folder was chosen)
Note:
Special characters and spaces are not acceptable in list names however an underscore _ can be used in replacement of a space
4. Click OK

Tip:
You can create a point layer from your saved search results. As a layer, you can increase your visual analysis by using Map Styling. This allows you to identify trends and make more informed decisions based on your data. To create a layer from your results list, you can export the results to a csv file and then load the csv file as a layer in LightBox Vision (see related documents).
Opening a Saved Results List
To open a list if one is not already open, choose the List icon from the Main Toolbar and it can be open by choosing Browse List (or Browse Layer if there is a layer to view):

The other way to open a list is by selecting the Open File Folder icon from the section at the bottom of the screen and then choosing to Browse List (or Layer):
