The Filter Stack
What is Filter?
Filter is a Stacks 3 stack element that allows the designer to easily create lists of items that can be displayed and filtered in magical ways.
Watch the screencasts below to see some how easy it is to use Stacks 3 and Filter.
Filter
--Filter is a fantastic stack. This is perhaps the best, most useful, coolest stack I've ever used. Anyone who has a lot of content to display will find multiple ways to do so. It looks great, works flawlessly and is worth every penny. My only concern is I may have a Filter overuse problem ahead. I'd like to use it for everything.
