@eirikbakke the platform API is designed for this purpose. In fact, none of the IDE's widgets can be reused in the platform currently - the files and projects widgets require friends access for now, but could move into those modules for reuse later. The API supports alternative displayers. You could certainly display it wherever you want, including in a custom TopComponent. The missing piece at the moment is an SPI support class to access the default Swing-based panel, widget and component renderers. You'd have to copy that across. I was planning that access as part of the additional improvements I personally intend to work on for this in NB23, alongside those in the original description. If access to that is useful for you earlier, it's an easy addition for NB22. Just say. I'm personally going to be using the default displayer for now. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
