    Hi Rasheed,
    I am confused. In uBlock Origin, element picker rules can easily be deleted from the My filters tab. Or was that not what you meant?

    I will explain:

    uBlock Lite has a new feature that lets you select a ''remove filter'' option, and then it will show you exactly what has been blocked on a website via visual indicator. While in uBlock Origin you can only remove those filters via the ''My filters'' tab.

    Problem is that sometimes stuff gets blocked, and then I can't actually know which filter (made by element picker) needs to be removed, so this new feature saves me a LOT of time. Weird that he never implemented such a feature in uBlock Origin.

    Ah, thanks, Rasheed,
    That sure sounds like a handy option indeed.

    Hi,
    It appears after you have created a cosmetic rule.
    If you try to hide the two iframes under the image I have inserted, you will see what you are looking for.
