The Color Filter Configuration GUI displays a list of all the color filters that are defined in the order
in which they should be applied. If an event meets the criteria for more than one of the color filters,
the first color filter configuration is applied. For example, the following filter configurations are
created and attached to color filter configuration:
Color filter configuration 1: sev=2 (with background color red and text color yellow)
Color filter configuration 2: sev>1 (with background color white and text color black)
Any event with severity=2 will meet the criteria for both color filters, but because the sev=2 color
filter configuration is at the top, all the events with sev=2 are coded according to color filter
configuration 1. All the other events with sev>1 (For example, sev=3, 4, 5 and so on) follow color
filter configuration 2.
