Filter out categories

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Dear NI,

couldn't it become possible to sort out filter tags that I don't want to be shown (in opposite of the ones that I would like to be shown)?

I would like for example being able to filter in tags that I want to be seen with one mouse click and maybe if I click a second time on the tag it will sort out the categorie maybe like this:

The result would be I get only exactly the tags that I am looking for and can easily select or deselect tags, that I want or do not want with only one or two clicks…

I’ve asked for being able to use Boolean’s in searches many times, to me it makes no sense for NI browsers to be based on cumulative OR Boolean operators which combine tags when most times I would want to use tags to narrow down results (AND operators) or find one thing but NOT another

Yeah, as Kymeia has stated, many of us power users have requested and detailed just how it could work for literally over a decade now and it would honestly be almost no effort since it is just standard database filtering rules and a few lines of GUI code. Instead NI went the opposite rout with V3 and decided to cripple the browser so you cannot even browse files while the plugin window is in view instead of adding useful features.
