By default, Collections folders display the most recently viewed study at the top of the list.

If the Snapshot you saved from a remote Synapse datasource is renamed in the remote Synapse datasource, the name will not automatically update in your local Collections folder.

If you add Snapshots to either a default or user-created Collections folder from a remote Synapse datasource, the following columns are intentionally left unpopulated, to ensure optimum performance:
