You can use these filters to perform the following:

• Control the selection of compound (or owner) objects versus selection of the constituent components. For example, in the Piping task, you can locate the run, the parts, or the features of the run.

• Filter on any object independent of the current task.

• These filters remain available if you switch tasks, but they are not saved to the session file.
