2023-09-18 - Field Filter - splitting rule on colon
=================================================================================

Release
==================
*Status: Available*

*Type: Bug-Squash*

*Date: 2023-09-18*

Problem
==================
When users enter a formula that contains a colon into a field filter, the gui is splitting the rule contents (to produce an alias) when it shouldn’t be, that behaviour is only for calculated output fields and wizards that allow aliasing …

Solution
==================
By deploying a dummy ‘field filter’ wizard , we can over ride the default pattern that is splitting the attributee on the colon.

Leverage the Magic
====================================
A magical feature, no action by Data Magicians required.

ADI
==================
Resolved, but we will need to deliver the field filter wizard at some point
