Creating a New Filter

  1. Right-click a column header on upper pane and choose Filters.
    The Filters dialog box appears.
  2. Click New. The New Filter dialog box opens.
  3. Type a name for this filter in the Filter Name field.
  4. Check Public if you want to add this filter to the project so that anyone with the appropriate access rights can use it instead of making it available to your user ID.
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click any of the following buttons in the Filters dialog box and specify the options:
    Fields
    Select the column header fields.
    Sort, Group
    Sort and group items in up to four fields in ascending or descending order.
    Query
    Limit the items that appear in the upper pane to those that match the query.
  7. Click Context, for files only, and specify the files that will be affected by the filter. Clicking this button opens the Set Filter Type dialog box where you apply the filter to one of the following by selecting an option button:
    Items in the view
    Equivalent to applying both your filter and the Files in view filter.
    Items not in the view
    Equivalent to applying both your filter and the Files not in view filter.
    All items not excluded from the view
    Equivalent to applying both your filter and the <All Non-Excluded Files> filter.
  8. Click OK to return to the Filters dialog box.
  9. Click OK to apply the filter.
Note: If this is a public filter, you can set individual or component-level access rights for it.
