Is this because of the number of records or fields in some tables? Some of my Tables show an Apply button when I set up the filter. But other tables do not have that button, so adding a filter or changing it will apply things in the current view on the fly. Both ways work well, with larger tables if changes are applied on the fly the page may freeze. I haven’t noticed this before. ---

Haven’t seen it yet but hoping it becomes a permanent feature soon. Changes on filters can easily trigger 1000s of automations unexpectedly and without notification. ---
