Got tired of popping the filter menu open all the time so made a quick Autohotkey Script.
Since you can’t access Filter:Notes in Chords via key commands I made a mini floating tool palette that does it for me. Radio button for select/deselect and a hotkey CTRL+F to open the filter menu. CTRL+X with the toolbar in focus will exit it. Toolbar always floats on top. Relatively new to scripting so no guarantees it will work for everyone but it’s been great for me.
Autohotkey is unfortunately Windows only, you can find it here: https://www.autohotkey.com
Paste the script below into a new text document and rename it with file extension .ahk to run.
Mac alternative that might work: ControllerMate
