Depends on the type of filter. If it's a logical filter then no filteritem is
required. If
it's using regex or a straight string match then you need the filteritem. Of
course
this assumes you're using non-db connections. For PostGIS, Oracle and SDE the'
filter is given in a native database format (i.e. a where clause).
So, in your case you could try something like:
FILTER ('[DXF_LAYER]' ne 'BACKGROUND')

Do I need to set FILTERITEM or can I put the entire expression inside of
FILTER?
I need to filter a shapefile so that all features where [DXF_LAYER] <>
'BACKGROUND' show on my map.
So, I have tried:
FILTER "[DXF_LAYER] <> 'BACKGROUND' "
this did not work....
How do I setup FILTER parameters for this?
