This page captures discussion on creating compound filters. Mark has created a 'Bundle Wizard, which takes you through the process of creating a bundle.

The wizard is really cool. I love it! I have a few questions/todo items:

1. Mark called compound proxies bundles. Would people understand what it is? As a non-native English speaker, it is not a common word for me. I actually like it now that I am used to it.

2. We have to add some label-like text to properties in SM so that people can easily understand what they mean. These could be used in auto-generated panels as well as the wizard. We also need some help text for each property in SM.

3. We have to add connections between 3D widges and proxies like Tim suggested. Otherwise, bundles won't have 3D widgets associated with them. We should do this next month.

4. Will all bundles have auto-generated panels? If custom panels are allowed, how are we going to associate them with loadable bundles.

• This is really great work - it makes the whole thing real, and it's great to see it in such a complete, professional-looking implementation. I think the use of a wizard here is really ideal - leading the user through the process in this way is very nice.

• After playing with this a while, it seems to me that we can use our 'edit in place' guidelines to make it a bit easier. Here's a proposal for doing it in place.
