By default, all the dives in the dive log are shown in the dive list. After several years one's dive log can become quite long and, sometimes, one would like to list only the dives of a particular type, e.g. those at a particular dive site or those with a specific buddy or dive master. Use the Filter to achieve this. The filter mechanism searches through all the information for each dive, looking for one or more key words. Only the dives containing these key words are listed in the dive list. In the xref:S_Settings[_Settings_] screen there two options that affect the way the filter searches for appropriate information. Firstly, one can select _Match filter case sensitive_ which causes the search of key words to be case sensitive. Secondly, one can select _Include notes in full text filtering_. If this option is not selected, the filter does not search through the dive notes for key words. Selecting the _Filter_ action button brings up a text box at the top of the dive list. Type the key words to be searched for. In the image on the left, the dive list has been filtered for the word "Nitrox" and 265 dives were found containing this word as a tag. For each trip in the dive list the number of dives containing "Nitrox" as a tag is shown. To clear the filter, remove the key words from the text box and select the Filter action button to switch off filtering.
