<title>Filter log</title>

The log viewer allows you to filter log content based on regular
 expressions. To set up or manage a new filter:

<steps>
 <item>
 Open the filter manager dialog by clicking <guiseq><gui>Filters:</gui>
 <gui>Manage Filters</gui></guiseq>.
 </item>
 <item>
 Click <gui>Add</gui> to add a new filter, or select an existing filter
 and click <gui>Properties</gui> to edit it.
 </item>
 <item>
 Fill in the form or edit the fields that you wish to change:
 <terms>
 <item>
 <title>Name:</title>
 The identifier for the filter
 </item>
 <item>
 <title>Regular Expression:</title>
 What the filter will filter for
 </item>
 <item>
 <title>Highlight:</title>
 This option emphasizes the line containing the regular expression
 <terms>
 <item>
 <title>Background:</title>
 This is the font color
 <note style="tip">
 The default font color is black, which does not emphasize the
 text.
 </note>
 </item>
 <item>
 <title>Foreground:</title>
 This is the highlight color
 <note style="tip">
 The default highlight color is black, which shows solid black
 lines as a result, so it would be wise to change it.
 </note>
 </item>
 </terms>
 </item>
 <item>
 <title>Hide:</title>
 This option hides the lines containing the regular expression from
 the shown log
 </item>
 </terms>
 </item>
 <item>
 Click <gui>Apply</gui> to save the new filter or save changes to an
 existing one
 </item>
 <item>
 Back at the filter manager dialog, click <gui>Close</gui> to apply the
 changes.
 </item>
 </steps>

Check the box next to the name of the filter that you want to enable in
 <gui>Filters:</gui>. If you want to view only the filters which have
 <gui>Highlight</gui> enabled and are checked, check
 <guiseq><gui>Filters:</gui><gui>Show matches only</gui></guiseq>.

<note style="tip">
 If there is a conflict between a hidden and a highlighted filter, the
 line many show as an empty white line.
 </note>

<note style="bug">
 If you uncheck a filter while viewing only matches, the log will show the
 lines without any formatting, regardless of whether they were hidden or
 highlighted before. The filter should reset when you check a highlighted
 filter.
 </note>
