<p>To
enable or disable filters, complete the following steps</p>
</div>
<ol>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>Open the Select Common Navigator Filters window by selecting <span class="uicontrol">Customize
View...</span> from the drop-down menu at the top right corner of the
view. </span></li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>On the <span class="uicontrol">Filters</span> tab, select the check boxes
next to the filters you want to enable.</span> For example, when the <span class="uicontrol">Closed
projects</span> filter is enabled, closed projects are not shown in the
Project Explorer view. Other filters can hide empty packages, non-java files,
and files with names ending in ".class".</li>
<li class="stepexpand"><span>On the <span class="uicontrol">Content</span> tab, the filters work in
the opposite way: the selected check boxes describe the projects, folders,
and files that are shown in the Project Explorer view. Select the check boxes
next to the filters you want to hide.</span> For example, if you clear
the check box next to <span class="uicontrol">J2EE EJB Deployment Descriptors</span>,
the deployment descriptors are hidden from each project in the view.
