Filters not working

[bronowski]

None of the filters that I have made work at all. The gui files will only run
for all files in the directory.

First, unchecking unwanted files one at a time using the check boxes does not
work, it's always the whole folder that starts to update (luckily it tells me
this first and I can cancel it). When I save the gui with a whole lot of check
boxes unchecked, and then exit the program and reload it, the check boxes all
revert to checked again.

Second, the Configure Filter box also does not work.

Initially, I wrote just the file names in the Include field, like this:
spreadsheet.xlsx
This did not update when I changed the sheet and ran the gui file.

So I put in the whole path, like this:
C:\users\username\myfiles\spreadsheet.xlsx
This also did not update upon change.

in the Configure Filter box, there is an instruction called:
"File names must be relative to base directories"
What exactly does this mean? What syntax should I use in the filter for file
names?

The checkboxes are for temporary exclusion only and you need to specify your
filter relative to base directories. See the help file for examples. Or
simpler: use the context menu for file exclusion, then look up what was added
to the filter settings.
