     9The filter dialog allows the user to temporarily hide from display certain types of objects on the JOSM screen. The usage is to enter any property or just text in the text box. Objects complying with that text or property will be hidden on your JOSM screen. This allows for easier editing in crowded areas. The 4 selection options are used when multiple filter lines are active. The filter lines are evaluated from top down, using the selection properties that are active for the appropriate filter line. A filter with mode ''R'' will effectively disable all filters above, while a filter with mode ''D'' will un-filter all elements matched, but only those that has been filtered by the ''above'' filters. You most likely want mode ''A''. Filters with this mode are independent of each other. (I'm not sure how ''F'' works?)

     11If any filter is active, a transparent message box will appear so you don't forget.

    713=== How to activate ===
    814Click on the [[Image(source:/trunk/images/dialogs/filter.png)]] symbol on the lower left of the main window. If the symbol is not there, check if your JOSM version is >= 3189. If it is still not visible, you can try setting {{{displayfilter=true}}} in the advanced preferences (and restart).
