View Filter
This image illustrates the new ‘context sensitive task bar’ that is displayed across the filter UI.
In the task bar you can see the details of the current filter, a clear summary of exactly what it contains and the operations you can perform on it (for example Save, Save As, Sharing, Rename and soon Subscription)

Manage Filters
The cleaner Manage Filters interface shows you a clear summary of all of your available filters.
You can share filters globally (ie with all users) or with a particular group of users (ie with your developers).
