    HI gdbaerg,

    It seems like you are trying to get filters from a custom visual, I'm not so sure if these functions are fully compatible with custom visuals. Have you tried the getfilters function on other visuals?

    If 'get filter' works on other visuals, you can try to create a variable to cache the history filter before the 'text filter' visual filter is applied. Then you can compare the current filter and history filter to get the custom visual filters.
