Can you set the FileFilters for a Gtk Dialog in Glade?

Question

In my code, I have lines like this:

Builder builder = new Builder();
builder.AddFromFile(gladefile);
FileChooserDialog dialog =
    (FileChooserDialog) builder.GetObject("dialog");

FileFilter[] filters = new FileFilter[2];
filters[0] = new FileFilter();
filters[0].Name = "Some filter";
filters[0].AddPattern("*.someextension");
filters[1] = new FileFilter();
filters[1].Name = "All files";
filters[1].AddPattern("*");

foreach (FileFilter filter in filters)
    dialog.AddFilter(filter);
dialog.Filter = filters[0];
dialog.SetFilename(defaultFile);

Is there a way to set up these filters in Glade, rather than doing it manually?

Answer 1

No. You can create a file filter object in glade (version 3.6 and up) and add it to the dialog, but since you can't actually set the name or pattern of the file filter, it's fairly useless.
