Protobi supports simple search and filtering of text verbatims. The search filter appears when there are 10 or more distinct values.
Example filters
Try entering the following filters:
- able matches any element containing the string 'able'
- able$ matches any element ending with the string 'able'
- ^fa matches any string starting with 'fa'
- some|ful matches any string containing 'some' or 'ful'
Values are filtered out as you type, but do not drill in. Press the "Apply" button to actually enter the filter as a subsetting constraint.
Protobi search uses Regular Expressions, which can be very simple to very expressive. See the RegEx cheat sheet.
