5.23.1 Simple Filtering
For simple filtering just type in text in the “filter line” and the list or view will be filtered to
only show items containing that text.
5.23.2 Advanced Fitering
For advanced filtering use the following format to show all items with the property
containing the text:
[propertyname] =
The = is the operator. Valid operators are:
=
Contains the text
==
Text is equal
!=
Not equal
>
Value higher
<
Value lower
For example,
Name=Stage
Shows all items where the Name property contains “Stage”.
5.23.3 Multiple filters.
+
Shows multiple filters.
For example,
FOH + Stage
Show all items containing FOH or Stage.
,
A comma allows extra filtering.
For example,
Stage, ID>10
Show all items containing Stage with an ID higher than 10.
Pressing [enter] will add the filter into the drop down list of previously used filters. The
drop down list is displayed by clicking the “V” button at the right end of the filter line.
5.23.4 Autocomplete
The filter also features an autocomplete function.
For example, if you are in a Fixture List and you type in “m”, a suggestion appears in grey
to change it into “manufacturer”. This suggestion can be accepted by pressing the right
arrow key. If you were not looking for “Manufacturer” but for “Mode”, you can step through
the suggestions by pressing the up and down arrows.
To select all current shown items, press alt+enter.
