I often find myself in a situation where I need to temporarily disable a condition for filtering or colour-coding. This, however, either requires me to duplicate the view to ensure I don’t mess with the original conditions or delete the original conditions and recreate them later.

It would be great if there is a disable option that could be activated to disable the effect of the condition and grey-out the condition. I think it is generally a great global addition that should be available wherever the condition logic is used.

Agree that a quick disable toggle next to the delete toggle (or the ability to undo) for filter conditions would come in handy many times.

It could be limited to groups, which also makes the groups more meaningful as ao currently hardly use them.

I think we are talking about the same thing:

> I am increasingly using Filter Rules and Groups to create different filters in Table Views. The problem is I keep on removing filters to create different filters. Later I recreate the same filters I removed, again. It will be great if the created filters can be active or inactive in order to apply only the active filters to the view. This will save a lot of time so that previously used filters do not have to be recreated every time. The filters could have a checkbox to select which ones should…
