Define your own filter

Filters are an effective means of supporting uniform modeling and accelerated evaluation. You can combine filters according to your requirements. You can create filters very quickly by merging filters or creating filters based on a database.

Filters can be used for logging in to databases in ARIS UML Designer only if they allow the entire UML 2 content. For the content to be allowed, the corresponding UML metamodel must be selected when the filters are defined.
