Command Overview

Filter all visible strings overlays.

This command makes it possible to selectively display and work with strings using a filter expression. As soon as the command is invoked any previously set string filters is removed.

It is advisable not to use coordinate data in the expressions but to use attribute fields. If any one point in a string fails to pass, then this string is "turned off".

Existing filters can be removed by running this command without any filters. The redraw-display command will display all the data.
