Quick Select (Filters)

Quick select lets you filter references according to frequently used criteria. You can filter by category, keyword, reference types, person, periodical, series, and year of publication. In the navigation pane, click the filter button and then click More to search for references with a certain number of stars or for references without a local file. You can combine multiple filters and invert filters as well, making the filters a quick alternative to Citavi's Search feature.

You can add your own search to the filter by saving the search.
