I use EDT for some basic data cleanup/modeling work and have seen datasets where I could an additional output for Filter or Join. This is a nice-to-have idea as I am able to work around it with transform patterns.
Idea #1: Have an optional output for the Filter transform that is the “Not Filtered” result.
Idea #2: Have an optional outputs for the Join transform that is the “Not Top Joined” or “Not Bottom Joined” results.
Can’t you just bypass the filter transform?
Note also that you can disable the filter with 1 click:
I can see that might be useful. I will make a note of it. But I think it would be a significant amount of work add. And you can achieve the same thing with Subtract.
(Edit Modified image above to add Clone).
Note also that we are adding a new feature so make it easier to see the misses in a Join.
@Admin Yes those are the workaround that I have, with the transform + subtract pattern.
For the idea #1, I have a branch that subtracts outbound of the Filter from the original to get the “Not Filtered” results (similar to what you drew for the misses in Join).
I think the benefits here (to the user) is to better understand the control of the data flow. Right now my setups are relatively simple, hence I call these ideas as nice-to-have.
I’ve made a note and will give it some thought.
