Imagine that you have a lot of controls selected but you are only interested in seeing and handling certain channels, say RotateZ. To achieve this, it would be as simple as following these steps:

Select the channel or channels you want to filter in the ChannelBox (for example, RotateZ).
In customGraph, press the "Filter" button.
All the controls that you select from now on will only show the RotateX channel.
To break the filter, click on the filter menu icon located in the GraphEditor at the top left.
