Hi Utkarsh, I tried editing the XML file and it doesn't affect the GUI. However, I can see them in the Python shell if I do a dir() on the custom filter.

I can't remember if the UI allows you change the name but you should indeed be able to change the "exposed_name" in the XML to your liking to overcome this issue.

Hi, I created a custom filter that takes two inputs. During the Create Custom Filter wizard I set the Input Names to "Source" and "Filter" and add them.  However, when I use the filter the Change Input Dialog window lists the Available Input Ports as Input and Input. Is there a way to get the Change Input Dialog to use the names I entered? I exported the filter and the exposed_name attribute does have these listed.

Thanks,
Mark
