Is there any chance you could add a Filter Editor toolbar icon when working with the Data view? I often have to make a lot of manual data changes and having a way to quickly open the Filter Editor would really help. I realize that I can use (right click) -> Quick filter -> Condition... or quick filter icons in the table headers but these have proved to take too much time to work with, not to mention when having to set up multiple conditions.

I have attached a picture where in my opinion it would be ideal to put the icon and what dialog it should open.

We will review this suggestion when developing the next versions of the product.

Thank you for taking it into consideration.

Sorry for double posting but if you do decide to implement this feature request could you also consider adding a keyboard shortcut for Filter Editor?

You can assign your own key combination for this command as follows:

1. Select 'Tools -> Options' from the main menu. The 'Options' window opens.
2. Navigate to the 'Environment -> Keyboard' branch.
3. Type 'DataEditor.FilterCondition' in the 'Show Commands Containing' field.
4. Select the found command in the list below.
5. In the 'Use new shortcut in:' dropdown menu, select 'Data Editor'.
6. Set the focus in the 'Press shortcut keys:' field and press the desirable key combination.
7. Click the 'Assign' button.
8. Click 'OK'.

Now we are talking! Thanks! I was actually trying to set a keyboard shortcut myself but didn't know the exact command for the Filter Editor (there is no description for commands etc.)

This will really do nicely. Thanks again!
