Hiding Files/Folders From Eclipse Projects Using Filters...

After watching Rob Rohan's CFEclipse Intro Videos, I decided to give Eclipse another go around. I've played around w/Eclipse several times before, but I've always gone back to HomeSite+. Rob's video showed me a few key features (such as the Bookmarks and To-Do list) that are very intriguing to me. Following Rob's directions, install was simple and I was up and runing within minutes of downloading Eclipse.

One thing I ran into though, is I wanted to hide my .svn and .project entries from showing up in my Navigation bar. In order to hide those files/folders from showing up, you need to turn on the ".*" filter. Here are step-by-step instructions for turning on that filter.

  1. Click on the "Navigation" pane.
  2. Press [CTRL]+[F10] or click on the "View Menu" icon (which looking like an upside down triangle.)
  3. Click on the "Filters..." option.
  4. In the Navigation Filters, find the ".*" option and click in the checkbox just to the left of the label.
  5. Click "OK".
