Hide non-bookmarked lines

Hi, I'm using UltraEdit to review log files, and I have bookmarked lines of interest. Now I wish to hide all lines that are NOT bookmarked. Is there an easy way to do this?

As workaround you could use the macro I posted at Copy to clipboard bookmarked lines? to copy all bookmarked lines to a new file. Append the commands

NewFile
Paste

to the macro and you have a quick solution. I will try to write a macro which uses command HideOrShowLines to hide (most) lines not bookmarked.

Here is the macro to hide (most of) all lines not bookmarked. I hope, I got all special cases and it works for all settings and versions. The macro is for UE v12.20 and UES v6.10 or any later. For previous versions delete the red marked bookmark numbers -1 and it should work too.
