Display only processes by a user in htop?

Question

How can I display only the processes of a specified user in htop?

Applying a filter (F4) doesn't seem to work, because it doesn't seem to apply the filter on the USER column.

   -u --user=USERNAME
          Show only the processes of a given user

So, if you run htop -u colord, you'll only see processes by the user colord.

Another possibility is to press the 'u' key in htop. A selector that allows you to filter the process list by users will be displayed.
