Sorry for the delay, Lasse.
It cannot be done with 'does not contain' rule indeed since it works with
sub-contexts only. To filter out tasks by a parent context you need to use
the sub-rule 'contains'. Here are the steps:
1. In 'Filter' menu go to Add Advanced > Setup
2. Add Rule > Add sub-rule
3. Select from a drop-down list:
Contexts - contains - <Parent context>
4. For the rule select 'NOT' in the first field.
5. Click 'Ok'
So the opposite can be achieved through excluding the group of contexts
from the total amount of tasks.
I've attached a screenshot ('@Home' used as a parent context)
Hope this helps.
