   2 You can setup filters in <span class="application">KAddressBook</span> which depend on the categories a
   3 contact belongs to. For example, you can create a filter that matches all
   4 contacts which belong to the categories <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Family</span></span> and <span xmlns:doc="http://nwalsh.com/xsl/documentation/1.0" class="guiitem"><span class="guilabel">Friends</span></span>;
   5 you can also create a filter that matches all contacts which do not
   6 these categories. To manage filters, use the filter configuration dialog:

   8 Filters can be used in views to reduce the number of contacts shown.
   9 In the <a href="using-filters.html" title="Using Filters">view configuration dialog</a> you can
  10 specify what filter should be used by a view by default.
