changing multiple filters in multipe view templates

ThazenbergAFZXV — Fri, 05 Apr 2024 10:30:00 GMT

I need to change multiple Rule based filters for multiple View templates. for each view template are the rule based filters. All the templates have the same filters, its just that some of the filters visibility are turned of. When i change the filters in one template will the same filters in a diffrent template not change. and when i check the template i changed the changes are undone. does anayone know how i can change all the rule based filters for all the templates at the same time?

The filters (what they filter and what parameter based on) will be the same in all your view templates. But what each filter does in each view template (i.e. "make all things filtered red") will depend on each view template. If you want the same things shown blue instead of red, you need to manually change that in each view template.

Hello,

In you current View Templates, uncheck filters.

Create a View Template with only filters checked.

Appy the new view template to the Views With the current View template.

Now from this view, create a new View Template with all necessary settings checked.

Instead of creating a new view template, you can also overwrite the existing one.

If I have multiple view templates to overwrite, do I have to do them one by one? I have easily over 50. What ocurred is that I have certain elements that i need to hide from all but one view template, they were already in the model.
