You can create a Quantify filter file (.qft) that contains filters to filter data that originates from a specific module, whenever you profile a program that uses that module.
For details about filter file names and their locations, click .
To create the filter file:
1. If a filter file already exists for the program you're profiling and you want to keep those filters, rename the file.
2. Profile your program.
3. When Quantify displays the performance data, in the Call Graph, Function List, or Function Detail window right-click any function, procedure, or method (collectively referred to here as functions) in the module for which you want to create a filter file.
4. Select Filter > Hide modulename or Delete modulename from the shortcut menu, depending on whether you want to retain or delete the time. Quantify automatically saves the filter to the filter file Exename_exe.qft, where Exename_exe is the filename and extension of the program you're profiling.
5. Rename Exename_exe.qft using the module's filename and extension for Exename_exe. For example, if you filtered data from MFC42.dll, rename the filter file MFC42_dll.qft.
Note:
§ To use the filter file you renamed in Step 1 again, remember to change the name back to its original filename.
