Setting Filter Parameters

Use this dialog box to define filter parameters.

Settings

Object types	Specifies the object types you want to filter. DIAdem only displays the object types that relate to a data storage.
Object properties	Specifies the properties DIAdem filters.
Operator	Specifies the operator that DIAdem filters with.
Operand	Specifies the operand that DIAdem filters with.

Note If you use the =- operator, you can use text attribute wildcards as an operand. Use a question mark (?) as a wildcard for one character, and an asterisk (*) as the wildcard for any number of characters. DIAdem filters case-sensitively.

Note A gray rectangle with a green point in front of the object type indicates that the filter is enabled.

Further Settings

New file name	Specifies the name of the file where DIAdem saves the filter settings.

Note If you set several filters for one object type, DIAdem filters with all the set filter settings simultaneously.
