**Cascade Filter on ALL Profiles**

This is a very helpful option if you have more than 1 profile and you know that you are going to have the same DataSet Filters for all Profiles.

Tick this option and set filter for one of the profile and same set of filter will be set for all the profiles. If this option is ticked and you create new profile, existing filter will be, automatically, set for new profile otherwise you have to set the filter for the new profile.

The Dataset dropdown in the logging window will only contain the filtered Datasets.
