Advanced Filtering

This page is a WIP. There is likely to be incomplete and/or missing information while the page is being built.

Advanced Filtering

The Filter Field, found in the Results View of the Parameters (WIP) pane, allows you to construct expressions that are used to perform advanced filtering operations. These expressions consist of five distinct elements:

A Scope Selector, which [optionally] tells the application which attribute of a property the filter should be evaluated against.
A sequence of Scope Modifiers that are used to modify the selected scope. Optional in some cases, necessary in others.
A Syntax Selector, which [optionally] tells the application which Syntax Interpreter to use.
A Syntax Modifier, which is [optionally] used to modify how the Syntax Interpreter is used.
A Query Pattern, which represents the value or expression to match.

A properly constructed expression is formatted as¹⁾:

[1::[2::[2::]]][3::[4::]]5

Scope selectors, scope modifiers, syntax selectors and syntax modifiers each consist of predefined alphabetic character sequences followed by two colons; e.g. “abc::”. Which characters a query pattern consists of depends on which of the other elements in the expression are (or are not) declared.

Within any given expression, only one scope selector can be declared. Depending on the scope selected, an expression may also contain one or more scope modifiers, in sequence. When using a sequence of scope modifiers, the order in which they are declared makes a difference, so pay particular attention to it if you find yourself in that scenario.

As an example, consider an expression that matches the properties with names that contain “JCM”, irrespective of the case:

Scope Selector
  |
  |   Query Pattern
 _|__  |_
/    \/  \
name::JCM

In the example above, we first select the Name scope. Then, we indicate that we only want properties that contain “JCM”.

Notice that, in the example above, we did not declare a syntax selector or syntax modifier. It is important to understand that unless a syntax selector is declared, the default that will be used is equivalent to wc::*<something>*, where <something> represents the text to match, which is the syntax to define a Wildcard expression that matches properties that contain the text to match. Below we see the expression that is actually being used, in this case, to filter:

Scope Selector
  |
  |  Syntax Selector
  |    |
  |    |  Query Pattern
 _|__  |_  _|_
/    \/  \/   \
name::wc::*JCM*

Logical AND

When the parser that evaluates the text entered in the filter field encounters the character sequence && (space, ampersand, ampersand, space), the sequence is interpreted as a logical AND. If we apply this meaning to the sample expression name::JCM && lbl::Elbow, the property being evaluated must match both name::JCM AND lbl::Elbow (separately) before the property is not filtered from the view.

Scope Selectors

Scope selectors tell the application which attribute of a property the filter should be evaluated against. If explicitly declared, scope selectors are always declared at the beginning of the expression.

Scope selectors are not supported in builds prior to 4.23.1.2. All builds prior to this are effectively using the equivalent of the Label scope selector with the Wildcard syntax selector.

Syntax Modifiers

Case Insensitive

By default, regular expressions are case sensitive. Use the ci syntax modifier to signify that the regular expression should be evaluated as being case insensitive; that is, where both uppercase and lowercase characters should be matched regardless of the case used in the expression.

Query Pattern

The query pattern represents the value or expression to match.
