Filtering

Overview of Quilter’s filtering tools, describing automatic filter application, real-time candidate updates, and options to reset filters for candidate exploration.

Overview

Quilter provides straightforward filters that let you quickly pinpoint candidates that meet your design criteria.

When you submit your layout job, if you include Design Parameter preferences (see Specify design parameters), they'll be automatically used as filters to help you narrow down to the candidates that match your preferences.

Using filters

Here are a few notes on using filters:

  • Updating filters changes the layout candidates visible in your candidate list in real time.

  • You can click the Reset Filters button to clear all filters and view all candidates explored by Quilter throughout the layout job.

  • The Show 100% routed candidates only filter is automatically applied to all jobs, and you can manually clear it at any time to see <100% routed layout candidates.
