Filter Options window let you configure general filter options which apply to all filters, for Applied Filters.
  • You can set the name of the filter, as long you do not have two filters with the same name.
  • Most of the filters can be applied on any text field of a file or folder. You can, for example, apply the Letters Case Filter on the ID3 Album field. Some of the filters, e.g. ID3 Setter Filter have a predefined apply target which cannot be changed.
  • Use the "Apply To" drop down lists to select apply target for the filter. The first drop-down list lists the available field groups, and the second drop-down list lists the available fields in the selected group. Only text fields which can be changed are listed.
  • You can apply the filter on different parts of fields.
    • Whole: Apply filter on all the text of the field.
    • Substring: Apply filter on a portion of the text. You should set the start and end positions that define the text portion you want to apply on.
    • Token: Apply filter on one part of the text. You should set a separator string, which will be used to separate text into tokens. E.g: the string "-" separates the text "Artist-Song" into two parts "Artist" and "Song". You should also set the part (token) you wish to apply filter on.
