Just as the name suggests, a new appearance flag to reset the filters so that they aren't inherited in a vis stack.

Ter13	Filters aren't inherited. They cause an implicit KEEP_TOGETHER; The flag to disable filters on children is KEEP_APART.

Albro1	I think the desired effect in this case is the ability to disable a filter on a child without also dealing with the other baggage of KEEP_APART - like preserving inheritance of transforms and such.

Exactly

Currently, the only way to remove filters from a vis child is with KA, and using that decouples everything else that KT impacts, such as transform, which is exactly what I want to preserve.

Workarounds exist, but this'd be berry nice to have

Lummox JR	Actually for clarification, filters do not cause an implicit KEEP_TOGETHER. They only apply to the icon they're on, unless it explicitly uses KT. But if it does use KT, there's no way to exclude another icon in the group from the filter without also excluding it from KT via KEEP_APART.
