Show Filter

If you create a filter just to set a rule, you may not be interested in having the filter clutter your view.  In this case, you can hide the filter by unticking the 'show' box.  Hidden filters can be recovered using the Rule Manager.

5

Parser Rule

The parser rule checkbox is used to determine if this filter (including the rule) should be automatically applied every time the given parser is used.  If selected, a new configuration setting will be added to Automatic Templates.  Parser rules may also be hidden.

A simple description of the rule.  The description states which log entries are included, the filter, and the actions to be applied. 

Some action descriptions may include a hyperlink which can be used to configure the action.

The Finish command can be used to save your changes and apply the rule.  Cancelled changes cannot be recovered.
