Chainsaw V2 - cannot filter on MSG with NOT operator

I want to see all messages NOT containing the words 'invalid user'. I try to
insert an expression in the field "refine focus on". I tried the following
variants:
(!(msg LIKE 'invalid user*'))
(!(msg ~= 'invalid user'))
!(msg ~= 'invalid user')
msg ! ~= 'invalid user'

and so on... but always get the message "invalid expression..." showing in a
tooltip.

What is the correct syntax for a filter like this?

Thanks for any help,
Urs

Currently, you need spaces around parens and operators..

! ( msg ~= 'invalid user' )
