Overview

The Store Current Filter function in AnalyticsCreator allows you to save the currently applied diagram filters—such as object types, layers, schemas, or groups—as a reusable filter view. This helps developers quickly switch between modeling contexts without reapplying the same filters manually each time. Stored filters can be accessed and managed later through the Filter Manager.

When and Why to Use This Feature

  • To improve navigation in large or complex data models
  • When working on specific layers, schemas, or modeling tasks
  • To create role- or task-specific diagram views for team collaboration
  • To avoid repeatedly reapplying the same filter settings during development

How to Use the Store Current Filter Function

  1. Open the diagram view where you want to save the filter
  2. Apply desired filters using the Filter Panel (e.g., by schema or layer)
  3. Go to the Diagram Toolbar
  4. Click on Store Current Filter
  5. Give the filter a name and confirm to save it
  6. Use the Filter Manager to restore or manage saved filters
