 Manual query definition allows users to exactly specify which signals and metrics they want to pull out of the loaded library by creating conditions for each  definition of signals. This is broken into several distinct tabs:
+**Query Name**: The title displayed for the defined query
+**Condition Name**: The title of the condition to be added to the query
