  2. Go to the Favorites tab.
  3. The favorites are listed in the box on the left.

To add a new favorite expression:

  1. Open the Expression Editor.
  2. Build or write the expression that you want to save as your favorite.
  3. Go to the Favorites tab.
  4. Copy the expression (select your expression then to CTRL+C on Windows or + C on Mac OS)
  5. Click New.
  6. Type in a name for the favorite expression in the Name field on the right.
  7. Paste the expression in the box under the name.
  8. Click on Save.

To delete an existing expression:
