Saljack opened a new issue, #7355: URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/7355
### Description It would be nice to have rendered javadoc comments in code. This can increase the readability of code. The same functionality has IDEA and it helps a lot see it in their documentation https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/javadocs.html#toggle-rendered-view . ### Use case/motivation When a method, class etc. has a javadoc comment then this comment is rendered in code as you can see in the Javadoc window instead of raw javadoc. E.g.: ```java /** * Represents an operation that accepts a single input argument and returns no * result. Unlike most other functional interfaces, {@code Consumer} is expected * to operate via side-effects. * * <p>This is a <a href="package-summary.html">functional interface</a> * whose functional method is {@link #accept(Object)}. * * @param <T> the type of the input to the operation * * @since 1.8 */ ``` there will be rendered javadoc: """ Represents an operation that accepts a single input argument and returns no result. Unlike most other functional interfaces, Consumer is expected to operate via side-effects. This is a [functional interface](https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/package-summary.html) whose functional method is [accept(Object)](https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/*2). Type Parameters: T - the type of the input to the operation Since: 1.8 """ And it will be changed back to raw javadoc if the user click into this rendered part. Current raw javadoc:  vs Rendered javadoc example:  ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a pull request? No -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
