2 Click
. The file browser window appears.

does not have proper transparency set up in the alpha layer of the file, it may not
show up correctly on maps.
Adding a Filter
To add a filter:
1 Type the string of the filter to use in the Filter String field.
NOTE:
You can use * for wild card strings and ? for wild card single character.
2 Select an icon, that you want to associate with the filter, from the Icon
dropdown and click
.
Sorting Filters
Select the desired filter and click or to move the filter up or down
the list. The printers use the icon of the first matching filter.
For example, printer XYZ-237 with a description of Dell 5330 + 2 Trays
is posted on a map. In the filter list, you have four entries in this order:
•
5330
•
Dell
•
*5330*
•
*Tray*
According to this list of priorities, the first matching filter would be *5330*
and the printer uses the icon for the filter names *5330*. The reason for this
is the first two filters do not utilize wild card characters. Without the
wildcards, the utility assumes that you want items labeled exactly 5330 or
Dell, and not strings containing these words. The search doesn't proceed
beyond *5330* to search *Tray* as the filter named *5330* has a higher
priority rating.
