It is documented, but not easy to find I admit. http://ant.apache.org/ivy/ivyde/history/latest-milestone/preferences.html#settings This is a comma separated list. This UI can definitively be improved. I have also faced myself the issue with the *.xml default filtering which is indeed boring. I'll try to come up with a better UI. Nicolas
