The File Properties filter has a "Hide Versions" option.  Is there any reason why it couldn't have a "Hide Masters" option?

So far never requested.
It can be done easily by creating a category with the "@collection[relation|master]" formula and then filtering on that category.

I'm not sure if hiding versions will be useful to many users. Or required often enough to warrant another check box in the filter...lets see what other users are saying.

Hide Versions] filter would not be needed if one could easily "collapse the version stack" for all (Master) files in the window.

I think I would find it useful to have these 3 options: (rather than implementing it with filters)

Collapse all  (i.e. show only MASTERS)
Expand all   
Invert collapsed Version stack (i.e. show only Versions)

How stacked files should fit in this I have not thought through yet.

Quotefilter would not be needed if one could easily "collapse the version stack" for all (Master) files in the window.

This can be done by selecting all files in the scope and then Toggle Version stack.

I have added a new hide masters option to the File Properties filter. You now can hide versions, masters or a combination of both (to see only unversioned files).
