Negative search in filters

Post by Mophilly »

Given a project called "Customer Service", that has ten issue Categories defined including one called "Training", how to set the filters to view the all the issues except "Training"?

I don't think there is an option for this. I searched the documentation, the bug tracker, and this forum. I found some information, such as "negation" in the text entry field of View Issues, but nothing precisely this case.

Has anyone considered or dealt with this?

it sounds that the filter has been applied, then the results (viewing issues) can not be recalculated via selection.

Advanced filters... I had not noticed that. I will give it a try.
Thanks for all the replies.
