save filter settings and use this settings to reset the filter

sebastians

is it possible to save filter settings and use this settings to reset the filter?
minimal example:

dt=open("$sample_data/big class.jmp");
new window("test",
    ldf=dt<< Data Filter( Add Filter( columns( :sex ), Where( :sex == "F" ) ));
);
//[save the filter settings]

ldf<<clear;
//[reset the filter]

 

Thank You!

The documentation, along with examples of each of the items you are working with are available in the Scripting Index.  I suggest you familiarize yourself with it.

Secondly, I believe what you really want to use, is the ability to Save and Apply Favorites.  See the Scripting Index for details and examples.  Here is an example based upon your included example

dt = Open( "$sample_data/big class.jmp" );

ldf = dt << Data Filter(
	Mode( Show( 1 ), Include( 1 ) ),
	Add Filter( columns( :sex ), Where( :sex == "F" ) )
	
);
ldf << add favorites("savedit");

Wait( 5 );
ldf<<delete all
Wait( 5 );

ldf<<apply favorites("savedit");
