Create Personal Subfilter

You always save a search result with a filter. In this case we will show you how to create a sub-filter, i.e. there is already a main filter with a defined search result, which is broken down further. Here is a  example: Main filter 'All current drawings', possible sub-filters 'Approved drawings' or 'All current drawings - architecture'.

To create such a filter, move the mouse over the filter symbol of the main filter in the navigation on the left and then select Create subfilter in the context menu:

A new window opens where you can now define the final settings for the sub-filter. Some settings are already predefined by the main filter and are applied directly. Filters created by you are always personal filters and are not visible to other participants in the project room.

General tab

In this tab, give the filter a name:
