View Drawing Filter

Post by Alexander Nicol »

I recently learnt about the view drawing filter and using it for example to filter by colour or string type.
I have been wondering if there is a way to do the opposite.
Instead of filtering all of the green lines in the view, (so only they are visible) is it possible to filter the green lines out of the view?
Essentially this would be like removing a model from the view but only temporarily.
Also is there a way that you can filter by multiple colours or linestyles?

as far as I know, you can only do NOT selection based on Names
and only on the [Name Masks] tab
row 1
active not myPipe
row 2
active [ ] *

that would show you everything other than elements with myPipe name

if someone was to make an ER
having a new TICK box after the source box, to reverse the selection, that would be awesome, so you could still use the source box as it is to show all Green strings with specific attribute etc
tick that box and show everything else
Cheers

+1 for UNO Reverse.

Bonus if it works on all the global panels with filter options.
