I build several different sensors in the main window, and they could be clicked to open a popup window.

I want each popup window could show the alarms form the selected sensor. I use the source filter to filt the Alarm Status Table.

I have tried _Sensor{Root Container.SensorNumber}_ or indirect tag _Sensor{1}_ {1} = Root Container.SensorNumber

All incorrect.

Is there anyone could give me some advise?

Youll need to put wildcards (\*) around your tag path filter, and, depending on version you’re running, you might also need some other stuff at the start as well.
