Large tables can be filtered to display only entries matching the specified criteria.

Filtering Entries by Selection

Filtering by selection is a simple way to limit the number of entries in a panel. To apply a filter, select the entries you want to be displayed. To select multiple entries, hold down the Ctrl key and click each entry. To select a range of entries, hold down the Shift key and click the first and last entries in the range. Then right-click and select Filter > Show Selected. Non-selected entries will be hidden.

To invert the filter, right-click and select Filter > Show Non-Selected.

To remove the filter, right-click and select Filter > Show All.

Filtering Entries using the Filter Manager

For conditional filtering, use the Filter Manager to set up filters and turn them on when necessary. Note: filters set up in the Filter Manager apply to the current instance of the panel only, and are stored in the Workspace. This means that they will be lost if you close the panel, and that they will not last beyond your current session unless you save the Workspace.

To set up a filter:

1. Right-click in the table you wish to filter and select Filter > Manager. The Filter Manager dialog box will appear:

1. Specify the conditions to be met for not-filtered entries.
2. Choose the relation: AND/OR.
