How do I add a Problem filter? [message #1066492]

I have a "Errors/Warnings" view in my app which displays issues using resource.createMarker(). This works fine, however the view does not have the "Configure contents..." filtering options so it displays issues from all the projects instead of just the currently selected project.

How do I enable this functionality? My configuration is below:

I added the <problemFilter> part but it does nothing. I'm not sure if this is even correct!

  <extension
         point="org.eclipse.ui.ide.markerSupport">
         <!-- I Added this --> <problemFilter name="problems" enabled="true" id="markererror.myPlugin.filterId" scope="ON_ANY_IN_SAME_CONTAINER"/>
      <markerField
          class="com.example.SomeClass.ValidationErrorField"
            id="com.example.SomeClass.validationErrorVariable"
            name="Variable">
      </markerField>
 
     [more field definitions]

     <markerContentGenerator
            id="com.example.validationsMarkerContentGenerator"
            name="Errors and Warnings">
         <markerTypeReference
               id="com.example.validationerror">
         </markerTypeReference>
         <markerFieldReference
               id="org.eclipse.ui.ide.severityAndDescriptionField"
               visible="true">
         </markerFieldReference>

         [more field references]

    </markerContentGenerator>

   <extension
         id="validationmarker"
         point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers">
   </extension>

   <extension
         id="validationerror"
         name="Validation Error"
         point="org.eclipse.core.resources.markers">
      <super
            type="org.eclipse.core.resources.problemmarker">
      </super>
      <super
            type="com.example.validationmarker">
      </super>
      <attribute
            name="validationError">
      </attribute>
      <persistent
            value="true">
      </persistent>
   </extension>

Where do I add the problem filter code and how do I enable it?
