Hi Johannes, I just pushed a tentative fix for your problem. Can you install the newest build and kindly try it out and let me know if it works? Unfortunately we do not have access to a Mac at the moment so we cannot verify it ourselves. Best Regards, /Sebastien

We finally were able to test on MAC and it seems that the problem reported is caused by an Eclipse bug. Refer to bug 377019 for a similar problem. We use the filter *_group_root.xrer for Review groups and filter *_rule_set.xrer to filter the files that one can include as Review Group and RuleSet respectively. However the filtering does not work. It would work if we change the filter to *.xrer for both file types, but this will make R4E prone to error e.g. it lets users select a Rule Set file as a Review Group and vice-versa. We will have to see if we do this as a temporary solution until bug 377019 is resolved
Fix is implemented and will included in next release
