Per now, we can only sort by, or exclude classes by tag or text, but not both at once, and not multiple of each.
This limits how well a filter can work when multiple classes follow a numbering system.
As example, we have classes for styles, and for the layers in the styles. the classes follow the same numbering system at the start of the class name, but the classes should not show at the same time when using a filer.
I have a tag on the classes used for the "layers" that only show the relevant classes when building up these styles, but if i want to make a filter that sorts by a range of numbers, as well as excluding these tagged classes, i can not.
Please add this function as it would make working with many classes a lot easier.
Example for what i wish for:
Exclude by word: text1 , text2 , text3 , etc
Exclude by Tag: Tag 1, Tag2, Tag3 , etc
Exclude by word and Tag: Exclude (text1) & (Tag1)
where i work, this would make it a lot easier to only show relevant classes per filter, but as of now, it is not possible as we can only sort by one word or tag
