My suggestion would be to use right-click popup menu to give options for more powerful things like negation. Using different icons in the check-box could show the different states.

Hi Vincent, There's no support for that yet, although there have been similar requests in the past. The challenge is not in the query implementation, but rather in the user interface. Right now I don't have any good solution for supporting negation without making the facet look too busy and confusing. Do you have any suggestion? By the way, if your exhibit is public, please feel free to share its URL with us (or put it up on our wiki as an example). We're always on the look out for variety in the use cases of our tools.
