Is there a way to see if an attachement is added without having to use dropdown menu?
Is there an attribute that can be added in grid that contains a symbol or character showing that one or several attachements are added?

Hi Stefan,
Yes, there are several ways to see if an attachment (or a list of attachments) is added without having to use the drop-down menu and I will list two of them here, which are Tree view and Grid.
First: Tree view, there is no predefined attribute that you can use to view attached files however, you can use the Path language to do that, as shown below.
In the Add Filed Column, you need to enter:
?/item::.Select(Attachments).Join(',')
? Activate the path language. /item:: Navigate from a node to its item (because the tree view contains SystemWeaver Node).
.Select()Transforms a list (item) into a new list(of attached files) by applying the given expression(Attachments) on each element in the first list.
Attachments Returns the attachments on an item or issue. Only the attachment objects are returned not the actual attachment data.
.Join(',') Convert a list of strings to a string with a given delimiter.
Result:
Second: Grid view by adding a TextColumn that shows attachment files.

Similar to the Grid view you can add attachments to Report, if you are interested to know how, you can search for "ForEachAttachment" in the Help.
