Hey guys, if I wanted to "reverse" filter something how would I go about it? For example, filter CD1 with %\_path% MATCHES CD1 so that I see nothing but folders with the path CD1, then reverse and see all files in folders that don't match CD1.
I hope you understand what I'm trying to say here...
Cheers 🙂
