apologies, didnt focus that you mentioned martEDITOR. its a check in
biomart-perl which prevents display of such a long filter menu. Its
removed from 0.6. If you want to lift this check from 0.5,

biomart-perl/lib/BioMart/Configurator.pm

search for:

if (@{ $xmlFilter->{'Option'} } > 200){


set this value from 200 to a higher number.

I would recommend to use BioMart 0.6 if you have not done a lot of work
already, its very nice to work with 0.6.

good luck!

cheers
