I remember using this when I played during 0.12
But then I didn't play for a while and recently came back to the game after I stumbled onto The Hydra Dilemma series and figured I'd pick up the game again.
I played a bit of 0.13.?? the past weeks, before 0.14 went live on steam.
(I'm painting a scenario here)
Now while playing I noticed it was impossible for me to filter anything. (Chests, wagons, nor toolbar.)
At first I figured, maybe they changed it and I have to research it first.
I went through the entire tech tree and obviously did not find anything.
I know for a fact my middle mouse button is working. I use it all the time to open links in a new tab/close tabs in my browser and in other games.
So I Google searched and Google searched, figuring it had to be a bug, right?
Nothing to be found, but people talking about how great it works.
Cue Annoyed Planet.
So... I did some testing just now.
I plugged in an old "standard" HP mouse and suddenly I could filter shit.
So here's me, reporting that for some reason the game does not register middle mouse clicks from my Logitech G300 mouse, which is working properly as stated before.
I'd reassign the hotkey for filtering, (trust me, I've tried), but the game tells me I need to pick a mouse button. It won't pick-up any of the additional buttons on my mouse, 'cause of reasons (that's fine, I understand) and my other two remaining mouse buttons, left and right click, I kinda use already. A lot.
Frustrated Planet is frustrated.
I guess for now, I'll just use this shitty old mouse to play Factorio...
Damnit. It feels weird in my hand. I don't have my extra buttons to rotate shit and open my inventory. It was so nice not to have to use my keyboard for that. ):

Like I said at the beginning of the post above, I remember using it when I played during 0.12
I was using the same G300 mouse at the time. Forgot to mention this. Might be important for the devs.

Chests never could be filtered.
You forgot to mention your OS and mouse driver /Logitech software might be relevant too i think.
And just in case: Have you tried reassigning it to the middle mouse button? I once had to reassign middle mouse/additional buttons (though that was most likely because i copied the config from a Windows to a Linux install)

Re: Toolbar/chest/cargowagon filtering *NOT* working...
I just now noticed that in the Logitech Gaming Software the middle mouse got unassigned.
I have no clue how this happened, 'cause if you set up a profile for a game (it detects which game you're playing and applies the custom settings to your mouse) it sets the default mouse buttons to default. All I did was add [E] & [R] to additional buttons.
Fuck me.

Well, at least now I get to make some of my trains shorter, seeing as I can filter wagons now.
And redesign most of my stations...
And the infrastructure leading to and from them, in the places there are no 'bots...
Might as well start a fresh game. d;
