Examples of filters 2

Different operators are available for each attribute. Some examples:

Filter rule

Explanation

Project name = Station

Finds attributes exactly matching this string: Station Uppercase and lowercase letters are taken into account.

Project name like station

Finds attributes exactly matching this string: station Uppercase and lowercase letters are ignored.

Project name = *station

Finds attributes that end with the term "station" (south_station, central_station) Uppercase and lowercase letters are always ignored if the string contains an asterisk (*).

Project name = *station*

Finds attributes that contain the term "station" (south_station_platform, central_station_terminal)

Project name <> ...

Identical to "="; the only difference is that only attributes whose occurrence is not equal are displayed.

Project name > P

Finds attributes whose occurrence comes after the capital letter P in the alphabet: for example, all projects from R on such as Riga, Southern Wales.

Project name >= R

AND project name < S

Finds attributes that start with the capital letter R.

Many custom project attributes contain numerical values. The system checks whether the value entered is a numerical expression and if so, it applies numerical criteria. Example: Numerical construction volume >= 1000 finds 1000.0 but 1ABC is not found.

Filter rule

Explanation

Construction volume >= 1000

Numerical query; all numerical occurrences whose integers are greater than or equal to 1000.

Construction volume >= 1000.5

Numerical query; all numerical occurrences whose floating point numbers are greater than or equal to 1000.5.

Applies to the "=" and "<>" operators accordingly.

 

Construction volume like 1000

"like" is always used alphabetically; never numerically. This condition finds attributes that match the string 1000.

 

 

Description = "1000"

You can force the system to look for a numerical value alphabetically by enclosing the string in brackets ("). This condition finds attributes whose occurrence is exactly 1000 (and not 1000.0).

Note: If an attribute does not exist, it cannot be found. This also applies to the "<>" operator: description <> museum, for example, only finds projects containing the description attribute that is not equal to museum.
