Segment filtering

Apply last: Applies the last filter used in this function

Favourite filters: Your favorite filters selected from the context menu.

Clear filters: The option becomes visible when any filter is activated. When the filter is deactivated, the Apply last option is displayed.

Choose filters: The option opens the Apply filters popup allowing for filter application.

To switch off the filtering option and show all segments
  • Select Filter filter-solid.png > Clear filters.

Creating combined filters

You can create advanced, customized filters by joining two or more segment filters together with the use of AND/OR operators and by saving the combination as a Combined filter. You can also save frequently used configurations of a single filter for convenient reuse.

Note

Filters in the form of already existing templates can’t be included in the new combined filter.

To create a combined filter
  1. In XTM Workbench, select Filter filter-solid.png > Choose filters.

  2. In the Apply filters popup select the box next to one or more filters on the list and configure the filter parameters.

  3. In the popup, check the Exclude box to exclude segments meeting that condition from the display.

  4. If more than one filter is selected, choose whether to join the filters using the AND or OR operators by using the radio buttons at the top of the window.

    1. The AND operator means all of the conditions must be met for a segment to be displayed.

    2. The OR operator means that only one of the selected conditions must match segments to be displayed.

    Important

    If any filter profile has been preselected by your Project Manager for the relevant project and you want to apply additional filter(s):

    • if you have been granted rights to modify this preselected profile filter – the operator (AND, OR) which you select to combine this filter profile with the additional filter will impact relationship between all applied filters, including the ones in the profile filter.

    • if you have NOT been granted rights to modify this preselected profile filter – regardless of the operator (AND, OR) which you select all applied filters will be linked using the AND operator, including the ones in the profile filter.

  5. Type a template name and then select Save to save the selection in the form of a template.

  6. Your new combined filter will be visible under the Combined filters tab.

Note

In some cases, the Segment filter parameters that you have selected, or that your Project Manager has predefined for your project, cause all segments in the relevant file to be filtered out. In this case, XTM Workbench will display an information that no segments have been found. To see the file segments again, adjust the filter values, or contact your Project Manager.

Note

XTM Workbench stores the most recently set filters and applies them when you open the relevant project in XTM Workbench again.

To edit segment filters
  1. In XTM Workbench, select Filter filter-solid.png > Choose filters.

  2. Select the filter you wish to edit to open the Apply filters popup.

  3. Select the Manage button to go to the segment filters popup window under the Settings tab.

  4. Make the necessary changes. Here, you can deactivate favorite filters or edit, or delete filters.

  5. Select Save to save the changes or Apply to make use of them straight away.
