Custom Filters
==Custom Filters==
{{man tip|Custom Filter migration|Keep your collection of custom filters through a minor updates of Gramps (e.g., from version 5.0.x to 5.1.x) by manually copy copying your ''custom_filter.xml'' from [[Gramps User Directory]] to the corresponding directory in new ''gramps_version_number''. <br /><br />Even minor upgrades (e.g., from a 5.0.x to a 5.1.x version) may include format changes since the recent innovation of add-on rules are causing rapid evolution in Filters. So porting filters in this manner requires verification that the XML definitions haven't changed. Also, Add-on rules may have to be installed in the new upgrade before copied custom filters will work safely.}}
You can carry out a considerable amount of selection of persons, events, places, etc., just using the Filter Sidebar in Person, Event, Place,etc. Views; but note, however, that the 'Use regular expressions' option '''only works with particular fields''' in each View.
