1. Would like to be able to pin/unpin commonly used expressions in the history list.

2. Have an option to clear all filter history items instead of one at a time, while leaving pinned items alone.

Thanks for your consideration.

Don't know.  
Perhaps you have a look at this thread that describes a local solution to keep a sort of history plus explanation:  
[/t/12361/1](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/12361/1)  
Not quite the same as pinning but perhaps with a similar result.

Thanks ohrenkino! I do that already though.

I could also suggest saving the filter history in a user editable format.

e.g. filters.ini file

So we can change the contents and order of items.

Please Florian!!

I've added an option to manage the filter list with [Mp3tag v3.14b](https://community.mp3tag.de/t/455). This also includes pinned filters that are then made available as dedicated entries via the filter helper menu.
