Description

In Regina 6.0.1 and earlier, the filter element was used to store different types of normal surface filters, and was held within an enclosing packet (surface filter) element. Since Regina 7.0, each type of filter now has its own XML element, which also serves as the XML element for the filter packet. This filter element is no longer used.

A filter element represents a normal surface filter, used to filter desirable surfaces from a large list.

Different types of filter are available, and the precise filter content model differs between filter types. These type-specific content models are individually documented on the following reference pages.

Parents

The following elements contain filter: packet (surface filter).

Children

The elements occurring in filter depend upon the specific filter type; these are documented on separate reference pages for each filter type (see above).

Attributes
