  <title>Filtering Files</title>

  <p>You can select what types of files to show in the browser view
  using the <guiseq><gui>View</gui><gui>Filter</gui></guiseq> dialog.
  The default is to show all media files (images, movies, audio), but
  this can be made more or less restrictive.</p>

  </figure>

  <p>The figure above shows how to configure <app>gThumb</app> to display
  media files only, by setting the <gui>General Filter</gui>.</p>

  <p>Also, by enabling <gui>Filename</gui> in <gui>Other Filters</gui>,
  a filter-by-filename ability is added to the filter bar at the bottom of
  the browser view:</p>

  <p>In the above figure, the filename filter has been configured to 
  show only files with "gen" in the filename. The matching is
  case-insensitive.</p>
