Hello,

I have seen that in the Filter Library Browser inside FF you can have the option to see ALL the filters from the online library OR HIDE the ones that you have already downloaded, BUT there is no option to SHOW ONLY the filters that you have already downloaded smile:?:

I know that the Filter Library Browser main use is for downloading filters from the online library, but why only is available the HIDE downloaded feature and not available the SHOW ONLY downloaded.

Would it really be very difficult to add this option. I do not think so, as it would be the opossite of HIDE, and ONLY show the ones that you have downloaded.

WHY WOULD BE USEFUL TO SHOW ONLY THE DOWNLOADED FILTERS?

Well It could have another use other than only for downloading.

This could be used to really BROWSE through all the filters that you have in a MUCH BETTER WAY than is available in the Filter Library List at the left side of FF.

You can see in a bigger screen with a big grid full of bigger thumbnails of the filters you have and so would be much better and faster to find the filters that you want and need.

Also this way you would be able to remember much more easily the filters you have and see them better than the very small and very short list of the left side of FF

Here below I show that ONLY "Hide already downloaded" is available, so please I suggest to add ALSO "SHOW ONLY already downloaded".

Thanks very much

Its unlikely that dev time will be spent on the built-in library browser, as it's been Officially Obsolete™ for ages now.

Instead, how about we put together a thread that collects all the feature requests for the filter library of the future (i.e. FF4 and beyond)?! (!!!) smile;) smile:D

I do not understand why this has not been included I do not think that you must make a great effor to include this simple option.

This would really be very helpful to see much better the filters that you have already downlaoded and search them in a much better way than in the filters left tiny and small list

Sorry to bump this thread again, but as it is now going to be a new Filter Manager in FF 4.0 I want to know if this new Filter Manager would be able to show the filters possibly in the great and lovely way as the Filter Browser shows them with all these big and nice thumbnails or it will keep being the same little and tiny thumbnails

And another reason for this thread bump is to know if there will be any possible update to the Filter Browser in FF 4.0 AND if this could have this "Show ONLY downloaded filters" if the Filter Manager in FF 4.0 will not have bigger thumbnails as Filter Browser already has now
