Resource Editor: 9.4 Resource Editor Menus: Filter Menu

Each of the "Don't show ..." menu items in the Filter menu is a radio button which allows you to turn on or off a filter. By turning on a filter, you ask that ResEdit not show chunks of a certain type. These options can be helpful when editing updated Translation Files, making it easier to find those items you want to work with.

Don't show Text:: If this filter is on, ResEdit won't display any text monikers or other text chunks.
Don't show Monikers:: If this filter is on, ResEdit won't display any monikers, whether graphic or text.
Don't show GStrings:: If this filter is on, ResEdit won't display any graphic strings. This will filter out graphic monikers.
Don't show Bitmap s:: If this filter is on, ResEdit won't display any bitmap graphics. This will filter out most graphic monikers, since most of these are simple graphics strings displaying bitmaps.
Don't show Objects: ResEdit will normally display the keyboard shortcuts associated with an object so that you may change the shortcut. If this filter is on, then ResEdit won't try to display the objects, and thus no keyboard shortcuts will appear.

Each of the "Show ..." menu items is a radio button which allows you to view specific chunks affected by updating the Translation File. At most one of these may be selected at a time. To show all chunks, make sure that none of these menu items are selected--choose the selected item to un-select it.
