    1011== Filtered objects ==
    11 * not selectable using [wikitr:/Help#Selection selection tools] (with few minor exceptions in #4929, comment 14)
     12* not selectable using [wikitr:/Help/Action/Select selection tools] (with few minor exceptions in #4929, see [ticket:4929#comment:14 comment 14])
    1213* not returned during [wikitr:/Help/Action/Search Search] action
    1314* will disappear from several menus until filters are disabled ([wikitr:/Help/Dialog/SelectionList#SmalltriangleinSelectbutton example])

    1517== Use cases ==
    16 
    1718Simple usage is to enter single tag (or more complex expression similar to search) in "Text" column: objects complying with that text will be disabled.
    1819
    19 More complex scenarios include filters as quick way to develop and test custom [wikitr:/Rules tagchecker rules].
     20More complex scenarios include filters as quick way to develop and test custom [wikitr:/Rules validator rules].

    2122=== Usability ===
     
    2728* Disable/separate objects that were fully tagged (using tag count and custom filters) from incomplete objects
    2829* Disable recently modified objects (and it is irrelevant: if it modified by you or another person)
    29 * Untagged objects {{{untagged}}} can be used instead of Notes at osm.org. It is faster than to set/remove {{{fixme=resurvey}}} - please don't overuse this principle
     30* Untagged objects `untagged` can be used instead of Notes at [osmwww: openstreetmap.org]. It is faster than to set/remove `fixme=resurvey` - please don't overuse this principle

    3132=== Overview ===
    32 
    3333The filter lines are evaluated from top down, with respect to values in [#Columns Columns].

    3737=== Columns ===#Columns
    38 
    39  * '''E''' (''Enable''): Enable or disable this filter line.
    40  * '''H''' (''Hide elements'' from [wikitr:/Help/MapView main view]): normally, all matched objects are disabled, but you can completely hide them:
     38 * **E** (''Enable''): Enable or disable this filter line.
     39 * **H** (''Hide elements'' from [wikitr:/Help/MapView main view]): normally, all matched objects are disabled, but you can completely hide them:
    4140  * disabled - visible and displayed as grey
    4241  * hidden - the chosen objects are completely hidden
    43  * '''Text''': The search term or property that defines the objects that are filtered. Every search query from [Help/Action/Search Search] action is supported:
     42 * **Text**: The search term or property that defines the objects that are filtered. Every search query from [wikitr:/Help/Action/Search Search] action is supported:
    4443  * standard substring search (or exact search with "quotes")
    45   * Regular expressions ([http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html Java Regex])
     44  * Regular expressions ([https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html Java Regex])
    4645  * MapCSS syntax
    47  * '''I''' (''Inverse Filter''): Normally, the specified objects are hidden and the rest is shown. If this option is activated, only the specified objects are shown and the rest is hidden.
    48  * '''M''' (''Filter Mode'') - how a ''filter line'' is combined with ''filter lines'' above ''filter line'' in question:
     46 * **I** (''Inverse Filter''): Normally, the specified objects are hidden and the rest is shown. If this option is activated, only the specified objects are shown and the rest is hidden.
     47 * **M** (''Filter Mode'') - how a ''filter line'' is combined with ''filter lines'' above ''filter line'' in question:
    4948  * R (''replace selection'') - effectively disable all ''filter lines'' above
    5049  * A (''add to selection'') - most users want this, ''filter lines'' with this mode are independent of each other

    5655=== Control buttons ===
     56TODO explain 7 buttons.
    5757
    58 TODO explain 5 buttons.
     58=== Keyboard shortcuts ===
     59Additional to the checkbox in the filter panel, enabling or disabling filters is possible with keyboard shortcuts. `Ctrl+Alt+E` plus `[1-9,0,A-Z]` toggles the corresponding filter on or off, counting from the top of the list. If unsure, `Ctrl+Alt+E` only, without addition, will show a list of available shortcuts.

    8992== Auto filters ==#Autofilters
     93Auto filters automatically adds filter buttons in the top left corner of the [wikitr:/Help/MapView map view] for special keys. This needs to be enabled in the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/DrawingPreference OSM Data settings]. These buttons only appear if there is at least one object tagged with the respective tag within the mapview. See the following screencast on how to enable and use the filter buttons. Above the filter buttons the key which is currently used for the autofilter is displayed (not yet shown in the screencast). A click on that button leads to the preferences where you can change the key.
