Hi Olivier, Richard The subtleties of the action of the list filter are as Richard has inferred:
If it is negated, it acts as a filter, removing any of the currently selected titles that are present in the list field. If it is not negated, it acts as a selector, replacing the currently selected list with the content of the list field. The filter operators include both filters (like "is") and selectors (like "all"). > Why is there a way to AND the tag-filter with NOT the list but there isn't a way to AND it with the list. You can do it the other way around: [list[]tag[mytag]] But it is undoubtedly an oversight. > Also, I don't really understand why it would be useful to replace the whole list as part of a filter expression. One would usually have the list filter operator as the first operator in a run, using it to select the tiddlers to be filtered by subsequent operators. Best wishes Jeremy.
