Hello!

I want to create a rule for folder with the condition "Item of a specified type or its subtypes".
When I click the "set value and add" button I get the following error:

javax.faces.FacesException: javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: Cannot get value for expression '#{WizardManager.bean.modelTypes}'
caused by:
org.apache.jasper.JasperException: javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: Cannot get value for expression '#{WizardManager.bean.modelTypes}'
