3.6.4 Filtering data
Filtering data
In several of the FlexPendant menus you can use filtering. This can be useful when
you are looking at instances of a data type, for example, and there are more
available than is possible to overlook. By filtering instances starting with a specific
character for example, the number can be greatly reduced.
Depending on the type of data, you can filter data either alphabetically or
numerically.
Illustration of filtering
The filter function is switched on until the active filter is removed (For example, by
tapping
