Use filter - with no filter (outcomment)

Hi 

Sometimes when your using a filter you want to let everything pass through. Which means you have to remove the filter or go around it.

In stead of beeing able to out comment your filter. And the filter tool see's that as no filter.

1. I think Alteryx uses // as for comments.

2. I commonly use a User Variable as a Flag to replicate this to the same effect, so IF User Variable Run All = 1, then 1 = 1 ELSE Account Number = 10001 ENDIF

You can use Detour tools to avoid your filter when in development. You'll only have to tick/untick the detour option to pass through the filter or not.
