Columns

Columns in the Selected Columns box will display in the Feed headline window. Those in the Available Columns box will not.

Viewing Fields with Headline View

The default view is separate columns. Turning that view off results in a 'Headlines' view which is more compact.

Show All and Show Unread

Users can select whether they want to continue seeing headlines of stories they have already clicked on by selecting Show All.

If Show Unread is selected then stories will be filtered out of the view after they have been clicked on.

Sorting

Stories can be sort in ascending or descending alphabetic order based on Tags, Author, Subject or Source or chronologically by Time or Date.

View Selected Story

 

When View Selected Story is selected a browser window is launched with the Story from the website that the RSS feed came from. The story can also be retrieved by double clicking on the Headline.

Saving Default Properties

Configuration Parameters such as which columns are set to display can be saved as the Default so that when the Web Feeds window is brought up again those settings will be the default.
