GitHub user harshaindunil added a comment to the discussion: CodeLens-style reference count hint to the NetBeans Java editor.
thanks, I appreciate the feedback. for the virtual text above part, I implemented it in the swing editor rendering layer rather than inserting real lines into the document. The hint is painted as an above, line block in the editor view, so it is only visual and does not become part of the file contents. Because of that, line numbers and actions like _Go to Line_ should still map to the real source lines, not to the reference hint. So if the declaration is on line 3, “Go to Line 3” should still jump to that declaration line. I also agree with your VS Code comparison. The hint should not behave like a new full line starting at column 1. It should visually belong to the declaration and align with the code start, not replace the actual line start or interfere with line numbering. I have already adjusted the current implementation in that direction.
