Copying a filter: Example
For example, a filter that lists out the requirements to be addressed in a particular product release can be copied and shared with all the developers. If required, a developer can customize this filter to list only the requirements of interest. Copying filters need not be based on the user role. The filter is copied to the list of user's private filters. Like any other private filter, copied filters can be modified by the user. Other users cannot view the changes that a user has made to the filter. If a new user is added to the view, the filter is not automatically copied to the new user. To copy a filter to the new user, the filter must be shared by using the Copy filter option.
