Filters
Filtering allows you to limit the types and numbers of items that appear in the upper pane.
A filter is a named arrangement of data that consists of a set of fields (used as column headers), sorting and grouping information, and (usually) a query. Once a filter has been created, it can be used in every project that has the same server configuration.
You can filter data in the upper pane in several different ways:
- By applying an existing filter.
- By arranging the data (changing displayed fields, sorting and grouping the files, and so on) and applying a query. You can then use this arrangement as the basis for a new filter.
- By creating a new filter from scratch.
Note: Only private queries can be used in private filters, and only public queries can be used in public filters. Therefore, you cannot copy a filter and change the status of the new filter unless the filter does not include a query.
