- Right-click in the tab and select New.
The New Filter (Process) dialog appears.
- In the Name text field, type in a unique name. Filter names have a maximum of 100 characters. Special characters are allowed, and you can include numbers in your filter names.
- In the Description text field, type in a description identifying the filter. Descriptions have a maximum of 256 characters. Special characters are allowed, and you can include numbers in descriptions.
