Pre-Defined Search Filters

Question

Is there a way with Trello or with the Butler add-on to enable pre-defined search filters? I find I have a set of filters I always use. Its easy to clear the filters, but when I want to set them I have to drill into ...Show Menu > Search Cards, then set the filters. No very convenient.

Even better - Is there a way to set this on hot keys?

@Iain Dooley, thanks for noting the hot key option. Cheers!

Thanks for the suggestion @Stu Smith ️. Ideally I'm looking for a solution that can be managed within the application rather than through the browser, but I think this will help to improve my workflow. Cheers!

@Greg Horie as @Stu Smith ️ mentioned you can save links to common filters (I also do this with saved searches, and I keep a "library" of them as links in a Trello card for easy access).

To your point about hot keys, yes there is a way to filter your board using the keyboard, just hit the "f" key. You can then start typing a search term, and use the arrow keys to pick a matching label, overdue/date term and so on.
