SHOW and HIDE BUTTON - cannot seem to undo

[sigmundtheseamonster]

1. I have been trying for three days to create a BUTTON that will simply only make visible files and folders CREATED or MODIFIED today. That far I got - made a filter named _ONLY_TODAY_MODIFIED .

2. Made a button with following code:

[code]Select NONE 
SELECT FILTER=_ONLY_TODAY_MODIFIED FILTERFLAGS=hidenomatch [/code]

<img src="/uploads/default/original/3X/4/a/4acabc497cf068dc335ab7eb11652cb11af2ee64.png" width="498" height="130">

i.e. this only shows TODYAS files - as expected.

3. PROBLEM is I cannot seem to UNDO this filter. I thought the following should work:

   Set CLEARFILTERS 

   I have tried oodles of combinations of UNHIDE, CLEARFILTERS , HIDEUNSEL, MAKEVISIBLE, NONE etc., but cannot REVERT back to showing all files. I also tried making a new FILTER like SHOW_ALL with pattern ., but nuttin !!!!

ALSO, is it possible to LINK the VIEW FILTER BOX (in TOOLBAR) to use a PRE-DEFINED FILTER.

Please help before I flip out.

A Select filter isn't a real filter in that it's a one-time operation; it hides files at the time you run it, and nothing more after that. To reveal files hidden by a Select filter you need to use the Select command again (e.g. Select NOPATTERN SHOWHIDDEN to reveal everything previously hidden). Or, use Go REFRESH to reread the folder.
