Can I export a filtered item list to CSV?

I’d very much like to do a CSV or JSON export of just the items that pass the current filter set, but when I export, I see that everything is dumped into the file. Is there a way to do a filtered export? It would be extraordinarily useful for me.

If you haven’t found a corresponding option, your version of Aeon probably can’t do that. If I were the developer of the application, I would also separate the display from the data export. Then the data export can be part of a workflow with predictable results, regardless of how the user has organized the screen at the moment. Of course, this can be seen as an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on the situation.

But that shouldn’t be a problem if you know a little bit about programming. After all, a CSV file is nothing more than a text file that can be read line by line using virtually any programming language, and then the lines that meet the filter criteria can be written to a new CSV file. As far as the filter criteria are concerned, you then have maximum flexibility.
