There is a known problem of invisible letters when typing in the values for
[?] in a filter. It has been reported. If you left arrow once or tab out of
the field, the letters pop into view.

The recessed boxes are positioned in the filter where brackets might be
applicable. You have to tell the filter where you want the brackets by clicking on
the respective boxes; then the actual symbols should appear. If they don't
appear, then that may be a new problem.
