*Discover* has a *Document Explorer* with resizable columns, better data sorting and comparison,
|
||||
and a fullscreen view.

|

To use the *Document Explorer* instead of the classic document table:
|
||||
|
||||
. Open *Discover*.
|
||||
. In the toolbar, click *Options*, and then click *Try Document Explorer*.
|
||||
. Turn off the classic view and save the changes.

[[document-explorer-columns]]
|
||||
=== Reorder and resize columns
|
||||
|
||||
Use drag and drop to organize the columns and improve the view of the data.
|
||||
|
||||
To reorder columns, do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
* Click *Columns*. In the pop-up, select the column you want to move and drag it to the new location.
|
||||
|
||||
* Click the header of the column you want to move. In the dropdown menu, click *Move left* or *Move right*.
|
||||
|
||||
To resize a column, drag the right edge of the column header until the column is the width that you want.
|
||||
|
||||
Column widths are stored with a saved search. When you visualize saved searches on dashboards, the saved search appears the same as in **Discover**.

||||

||||

[[document-explorer-sort-data]]
|
||||
=== Sort data
|
||||

||||
The default sort is based on the time field, from new to old.

||||

||||
. In the *Document Explorer*, click and open the *field sorted* options.

|
||||
|
||||
. To add more fields to the sort, expand the dropdown menu.
|
||||
+
|
||||
By default, columns are sorted in the order they are added.
|
||||
For example, to sort by `order_date` then `geo.country_iso_code`, make sure `order_date` appears first.
