• Click the Media button in the bottom left and select the New command for intelligent.
• In the dropdown, select a criterion for your selection.
• Use the buttons to set the criteria, for example to indicate the maximum age of files to distinguish.
• Change if necessary the name of the view intelligent then click OK.
• Click on the new list in the library to start reading.
