Overview of the main dialog elements:
This drop-down list displays all the available filters. A selected filter is automatically activated and is applied to both the tree and the list view. The "- Not activated -" entry deactivates the filter and causes an unfiltered display of the data. Click [...] to open the Filter dialog. Here you can create, edit, delete, copy, export, import, and manage filters.
The popup menu of the Filter drop-down list contains the following entries:

- Activate <filter name>: This popup menu item is available if the filter setting is "- Not activated -": Reactivates the last active filter.
This allows you to toggle rapidly between the unfiltered representation and a representation filtered in accordance with your requirements.
Use this field, via Quick input, to adjust quickly the value of a filter criterion for a defined and activated filter.
The tree view displays all the devices in the previously selected layout space in a hierarchical structure. A check symbol before each device / each structural level indicates whether the devices in question will be shown or hidden in the view.
