What Are the Filter Modes?

Filter modes control how lines are matched and processed.
You can use simple keyword filtering or more advanced inclusion and exclusion logic.

Different filter modes for removing specific lines
Choose how matching rules are applied to your text
  • Remove matching lines: Deletes lines that match your criteria.
  • Keep matching lines: Extracts only the lines you want.
  • Multiple keywords: Match one or more terms at once.

Case Sensitive vs Case Insensitive — What’s the Difference?

Case sensitivity determines whether letter casing matters during filtering.
This affects how accurately lines are matched.

Case insensitive filtering example
Case Insensitive (default): “Error” and “error” are treated the same.
Case sensitive filtering example
Case Sensitive: Uppercase and lowercase are treated as different values.
  • Case Insensitive: Best for general text cleanup.
  • Case Sensitive: Ideal for code, IDs, or exact matches.

How Do Advanced Rules Work?

Advanced rules give you precise control over filtering behavior.
Combine multiple conditions to target exactly the lines you want.
