<para>When you launch it, the <guilabel>User defined filters</guilabel>
dialog appears that lists all the filters (if any) previously defined
by you. Click <guibutton>Add...</guibutton> to define a new filter.
Once you have designed your filters, you can edit, test, and delete
selected filters using <guibutton>Edit...</guibutton>,
<guibutton>Test...</guibutton>, and <guibutton>Delete...</guibutton>
buttons, respectively. All the filters displayed in the list will be
automatically saved along with your database and will be available

<para> Type the name for your
new filter into the <guilabel>Name</guilabel> field. Enter any
comment that would help you identify this filter in the future
into the <guilabel>Comment</guilabel> field. Add as many rules as you
would like to your filter using <guibutton>Add...</guibutton> button.
Check <guilabel>Invert box</guilabel> to negate the filter rule
(e.g. inverting "has a common ancestor with I1" rule will match
everyone who does not have a common ancestor with that person).
If the filter has more than one rule, choose whether all of them
must apply, only one (either) rule must apply, or exactly one (either)
rule must apply, in order for the filter to generate a match. </para>
<para> Note that the filters you already designed may be used as a rule
for another filter. This gives you nearly infinite flexibility in
custom-tailoring your selection criteria that can be later used in
most of the exports, reports and some of the tools (such as comparing
individual events). </para></listitem>
