Set Filter - Children

GSAK allows you to set a filter by interrogating the child waypoints that match your selection criteria.

For options that allow regular expressions, see this topic for more information

Code - The child waypoint code
Type - The child waypoint type
Date - The creation date of the child waypoint
Name - The name of the child waypoint
Comments - The child waypoint comments
By User - Use to discriminate between user created child waypoints, and those loaded by Groundspeak GPX files

Count - This enables you to condition the selection of the cache depending on the number of "matched" child waypoints using the criteria from the previous selections
