If instead, you need to filter only records (elements of layer) visible in
canvas, this it is also possible:
but  you can do it only from the  attributes table and only layer by
layer... 
You need to select in the drop down menu (at the bottom left on attribute
table) the filter "show only  visible elements in the map"
