Dragging and dropping from one Filter Builder to another

A quick way to create a filter on UNIX is to drag and drop elements from one open Filter Builder to another open Filter Builder.

About this task

To drag and drop from one Filter Builder to another:

Procedure

  1. Move the cursor over the drag point icon, which is located to the right of the Editable check box.

    This figure shows the drag point icon in the UNIX Filter Builder.

  2. Click and hold down the middle mouse button over the icon.
  3. Drag the mouse to another Filter Builder. When the cursor is over a valid drop area, it changes color to green.
  4. Release the mouse button to drop the filter.

    If the filter is not valid or is incomplete, a red cross is shown on the drag point icon, and you cannot drag and drop.
