AND Filter on views not working?

Hi,

 

I want to display only sections (views) which meet 2 parameters but it don't want to work with AND in filters I have made a small example where  section 2 structural and fine as parameters (pic 1) and section 1 structural and fine (pic 2). The view itself has a filter in which the condition is included that both structural and fine are the condition to display (pic 3).

 

what am I doing wrong?

 

structural - finestructural - finestructural - coarsestructural - coarsefilterfilter

The top of the last screen shot seems to be cut off. I can see the Filter and its Rules that were created, but I cannot see the View Filter settings where you apply changes to elements that match that filter. Can you share that as well? Simply creating a Filter in your model is not enough, of course. You must add that Filter to a View Filter and change the settings on that tab either in Visibility Graphics or under the View Template attached to the view.

Thanks for your reply and yes the filter is set in the active view

 

Also the filter is working if i set the visibilty in the filter unchecked the section (section 2) that meets the parameters is disappearing but the one (section 1) that not meets the parameters stay visible in both scenario's.

Does nothing to your view. Once you create a Filter you add it to teh View's Filter tab and then you can change the appearance by changing the settings. In the other sample, Visibility is unchecked, so the filtered elements do not show up. But this other example has no changes made to the filtered elements.

 

I believe you need to make another Filter that is the opposite of the one you have, and then uncheck Visibility in the View Filter.
