| Summary | 0011567: filter rules for <attribute> would be more useful with ability to search for empty values & all values | ||||
| Description | It would be a useful data maintenance feature to be able to easily Search for attributes that have no value set. (They should be deleted or populated with a value.) Likewise, simple searching for Person that has a particular attribute with ANY value has inspection uses. RegEx is difficult for the average user. Could 2 alternatives to entering the Value & selecting the RegEx option? | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Open the example.gramps Tree Try to find any Person with a SSN attribute Find any Person with a SSN attribute but has a null value | ||||
| Additional Information | Added the RegEx patterns to the wiki: https://www.gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_5.1_Wiki_Manual_-_Filters#regex_null To find all values, (.|\s)* will match: any character or any whitespace character; and zero or more repetitions of those. To find empty (blank or null) strings, ^.{0}$ looks from the start of the match ^ for any character (except newline) . occurring precisely zero times {0} before the end of the match $ | ||||
