I fixed the initial issue by adding a combo box to select a view as DEM source. See:
[Issue #324] FilterReplaceElevation: no indication which view is used as source for DEM data I also experimented with the idea of having a list of quick filters as a tool button in the screen option. This did not turn out well. Only filters with no input really make sense. And some of those with inputs you can use the last setup. With others even this does not make sense. And the resulting code was really ugly. At least if the goal is to duplicate as less code as possible. Anyway I dumped that idea. Oliver Am Dienstag, 13.
