Filtering action using in org.eclipse.ui.activities [message #849797]

I want to filter out "Use Step Filters" view action from Debug view using "org.eclipse.ui.activities" extension point. This action is contributed by "org.eclipse.debug.ui" plugin with "id=org.eclipse.debug.ui.
actions.ToggleStepFilters".

I tried using this extension point, say,

<extension
point="org.eclipse.ui.activities">
<activity
id="com.test.debug.ui.activity1"
name="XYZ1">
</activity>
<activityPatternBinding
activityId="com.test.debug.ui.activity1"
pattern="org\.eclipse\.debug\.ui/org\.eclipse\.debug\.ui\.actions\.ToggleStepFilters">
</activityPatternBinding>
<category
id="com.test.debug.ui.category1"
name="XYZ">
</category>
<categoryActivityBinding
activityId="com.test.debug.ui.activity1"
categoryId="com.test.debug.ui.category1">
</categoryActivityBinding>
</extension>

But this is not filtering the action from view. I have verified in preference page General -> Capabilities, the defined category "XYZ" is unchecked.

Is there anything which I am missing here?

Activities are inclusive, in that if any activity is true an item is visible. The "Development" capability includes activities for Debug. Even if you try and disable one, as long as the general Debug activity is true it will still be visible.
