Creating filters

Creating a filter is easy:
Click [filter] in the top right corner to start creating a filter for the current page.
Select what data categories you want to filter, for example: location, aspect ratio, screen tags. You can select multiple categories.
Specify what data the filter should include or not include for each category.
Results are shown and updated underneath the filter while you create it. You can also save the filter by pressing [save filter].
A saved filter will show up as it's own tab on the current page for quick access. A great tool for organising loads of data. Some views also has built in filters for media types or different types of statuses for quickly swapping between those. Note that a saved filter is personal and only visible for you.
