Filter buttons are handy shortcuts that apply a display filter as soon as you press them.
You can create filter buttons by pressing the btn:[{plus}] button, right-clicking in the filter button area, or opening the Filter Button section of the <<ChCustPreferencesSection,Preferences Dialog>>.
The example shows a filter button with the label “Squirrels”.
If you have lots of buttons you can arrange them into groups by using “//” as a label separator.
For example if you create buttons named “Not Squirrels // Rabbits” and “Not Squirrels // Capybaras” they will show up in the toolbar under a single button named “Not Squirrels”.
