RegEx for Excluded Files by Filetype?

[Twitch_City]

I am trying to filter out my .base files from the Graph View via Settings → Files and Links → Excluded Files.

What I’m trying to do

I’m trying to include a RegEx expression in the Excluded files setting to hide the .base files from my graph view (since they are linked/embedded in my MOC notes).

Things I have tried

I have tried out a variety of what I believe to be proper RegEx filters that should hide the .base files from the graph view, but none seem to work. Filters I’ve tried include: "*.base", ".base", "/.base/", "/(.base)/", and the above without quotes but the .base files still show up. I have successfully hidden folders using this setting but I can’t seem to get RegEx commands to work as expected. Is there something I’m missing about how this setting interprets RegEx?

Did you try to add -file:.base to the “Filter” in the Graph View?

Side note: Once you configure a graph with a set of filters/options/colors/etc, you can “save it” using a bookmark. This way you can have different saved configurations to see your vault under different criteria.

This works but I’m still wondering why the RegEx/settings approach doesn’t? I’d rather not have that filter always on in the Graph View.

It works in the general settings if you write it like this: /.*\.base/

Anyway you can always have several different bookmarks to different “views” of your graph, as I explained in the (edited) previous answer.

That worked perfectly, thanks! I guess I was thrown by the example text showing that RegEx commands should be contained within quotation marks.
