Description Udo Walker CLA 2020-08-03 03:22:38 EDT 
It is not possible to customize the Project Explorer view in an RCP product, which is based on the Eclipse IDE, i.e.:

* setting of custom "User filters" is not possible as they are stored as memento in the workbench.xmi file. For the Eclipse IDE based RCP product the workbench.xmi file is part of the application with id "org.eclipse.ui.ide.workbench"

* un-setting "Pre-set filters" is not working. They should be customizable via plugin_customization.ini file but it does not work.

It would be nice if all the filter settings of the Project Explorer are stored in dialog_settings.xml or as normal preferences properties.
