Figure 3.22 Select Layer Filter Window
-
In the Select Layer Filter window, select the filter you want to apply from the list displayed in the Select Objects Where: dialog box.
| Note |
| The list displayed depends on the metadata contained in the map layer you have selected.
|
-
Select an operator from the list displayed on the left and then enter a value for the operator on the right.
| Note |
| You can filter an already filtered map layer again.
|
-
If you want to split a layer by grouping the objects that do not match the filter, check the Create a layer for non matching objects box. In this case, you create two filtered layers: one that matches the filter and one that does not match the filter.
| Note |
| You can split a map layer more than once.

Click OK.
