Using the Event Types View to Work with Operative Sets

Read about operative sets at What is an Operative Set?.

You can add events to an operative set or remove it from the set directly from the Event Types view. This feature is useful when you want to add or remove all events of that type, add or remove all events from that specific thread, and so on. These features are enabled by using a context menu accessible from the Event Types view (Figure 16-16).
