Filter name and Filter Macro name collisions

Post by meteorquake »

I'm not sure if it's intended but if you have a filter with a name the same as another filter's macro name then they both get applied on usage.
I can see how that might occur in terms of how things are implemented, but it might be helpful to warn the user if they create something with a collision in this way as probably they don't intend it (in my own case it took a short while to work out what was going on).
Cheers! David

Everything will use the first filter or bookmark matching the name or macro.



I'll look into showing a balloon tip when reusing a macro name.

Thank you for the suggestion.
