Being totally new to creating QuickSearchProviders I might be off here. I noticed that my translation didn't kick in when using this generated layer.xml file.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE filesystem PUBLIC "-//NetBeans//DTD Filesystem 1.2//EN" " http://www.netbeans.org/dtds/filesystem-1_2.dtd"> <filesystem> <folder name="QuickSearch"> <folder name="Bookmarks"> <attr name="command" stringvalue="b"/> <attr name="position" intvalue="0"/> <file name="org-mapton-bookmarks-BookmarkQuickSearchProvider.instance"> <attr name="displayName" bundlevalue="org.mapton.bookmarks.Bundle#QuickSearch/Bookmarks/org-mapton-bookmarks-BookmarkQuickSearchProvider.instance"/> </file> </folder> </folder> </filesystem> So I changed it to the following and got it working. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE filesystem PUBLIC "-//NetBeans//DTD Filesystem 1.2//EN" " http://www.netbeans.org/dtds/filesystem-1_2.dtd"> <filesystem> <folder name="QuickSearch"> <folder name="Bookmarks"> <attr name="command" stringvalue="b"/> <attr name="position" intvalue="0"/> <attr name="displayName" bundlevalue="org.mapton.bookmarks.Bundle#QuickSearch/Bookmarks/org-mapton-bookmarks-BookmarkQuickSearchProvider.instance"/> <file name="org-mapton-bookmarks-BookmarkQuickSearchProvider.instance"/> </folder> </folder> </filesystem> Will simplify it to <attr name="displayName" bundlevalue="org.mapton.bookmarks.Bundle#QuickSearch/Bookmarks"/> Is this a bug that I should file in jira? /Patrik
