Active FileFilter in JFileChooser

Ok, here is my problem:

I successfully installed 2 TextFilters to my JFileChooser. But unfortunately when i open the JFileChooser Window only the last added FileFilter is active...But i want to start this window with the common file filter (*.*). So how can i set the active FileFilter from beginning?

here is my Code:

fileChooser =new JFileChooser();

FileView fv =new ImageFileView();

fileChooser.setFileView(fv);

fileChooser.setFileFilter(new MyFileFilter(".pdf","Adobe Acrobat files (*.pdf)"));

fileChooser.setFileFilter(new MyFileFilter(".rtf","Rich Text Format files (*.rtf)"));

fileChooser.showOpenDialog(this);

I figured this out in 2 minutes. Was this really so hard?

private static void JFileChooserTest() {

JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();

FileFilter o_filter = chooser.getFileFilter();

FileExtensionFilter filter = new FileExtensionFilter.HTMLFilter();

FileExtensionFilter filter2 = new FileExtensionFilter.RTFFilter();

FileExtensionFilter filter3 = new FileExtensionFilter.TextFilter();

chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter);

chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter2);

chooser.addChoosableFileFilter(filter3);

chooser.setFileFilter(o_filter);

chooser.showOpenDialog(null);

}
