Easier way to add cosmetic filter exceptions from the logger

[gestate-8]

Is there a way to quickly add cosmetic filter exceptions from the logger?

For static filters the logger offers a Create button that lets users add them with a single click.

For cosmetic filters like example.com#@^style:has-text("wow"), there is a #@# button to add temporary exceptions, but there is no button to add those directly to My filters unlike static filters.

Currently filters have to be copied manually from the Details tab and pasted into My filters.
Is there a simpler method to do this, or could such a feature be added in future releases?

For cosmetic filters/scriptlet filters, no.

then only scirptlets is problematic.

There should be a shortcut to DOM Inspector, I keep forgetting about this feature.

Sad. I hope this feature gets added someday.

You can use this:

For the exception to work best, do not edit the text in the text field (just select the items you want to disable and save).

If this does not ‘disable’ them, you can add a comment above them in my filters and they should be unblocked and parsed to allow the item to be displayed.

Or add one cosmetic exception at a time and allow the page to reload.

Well, what I wanted was a button to immediately add an exception for a logger entry like this.
example.com##^style:has-text(@media print)
It's not really related to DOM elements. It seems like such a feature doesn't exist. I guess I'll have to copy and paste it manually.

This is HTML filtering done before the page was parsed by browser. So it is invisible to DOM Inspector (only in logger table).

Maybe it's better to report a bug that no longer needed to remove the element from "your" site's code: https://github.com/uBlockOrigin/uAssets/issues/new/choose

These sites aren’t owned by me, and I already have dozens of similar exceptions in my filter list.
It’s not ideal but I think the best way to avoid burdening the contributors is to just add them myself.

If someone didn't add them to the list just for fun (And the entry waits until it is caught by the dead or parked domain mechanism), they should be checked from time to time.
