Re: How to show filtered views of single ExplorerManager's nodes?
It's a quite powerful module especially if you want to slice-and-dice the same underlining business model in multiple ways. Sadly there is a bug related to refresh, I believe you have to refresh the whole view, it's not more fine-grained. My feeling is that Sun/Oracle could have put more work into the module but it was stopped when it was good enough (ie. not enough resources). --emi ‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐ On 24 July 2018 5:07 PM, Andreas Sewe wrote: > Emilian Bold wrote: > > > I don't believe FilterNode is designed for filtering that changes much the > > hierarchy structure. > > I recommend reading about > > http://bits.netbeans.org/8.1/javadoc/org-netbeans-spi-viewmodel/org/netbeans/spi/viewmodel/package-summary.html#package_description > > which is more generic but should allow you easily to redesign the > > hierarchy. > > Thank for you for the pointer; I wasn't aware of > org-netbeans-spi-viewmodel.

Re: NB printing question
Thanks Geertjan - aside from not preserving tab width settings & some text being a little difficult to read (in dark themes, there's lots of light-colored fonts for keyword, comment, etc. that become very light grey on greyscale printers), that works pretty well. At least it's faster than switching themes to print. tom On Tue, Jul 24, 2018 at 1:53 AM Geertjan Wielenga wrote: > File | Print to HTML... > > Gj > > On Mon, Jul 23, 2018 at 11:27 PM, Thomas Wolf wrote: > >> I'm on a Mac running NB 8.2 and was wondering what folks do to get >> Netbeans to provide decent print output?

Thank for you for the pointer; I wasn't aware of org-netbeans-spi-viewmodel. (New to NetBeans and re-reading _The NetBeans Platform for Beginners_, which doesn't cover that API.) It looks to be more low-level, though. In particular, how would I react to changes in the underlying mode? Currently, my Node and ChildFactory subclasses listen to property changes of the model at the respective levels. Who would be responsible to listen to model changes using the view model API?

Re: How to show filtered views of single ExplorerManager's nodes?
I don't believe FilterNode is designed for filtering that changes much the
hierarchy structure.
I recommend reading about
http://bits.netbeans.org/8.1/javadoc/org-netbeans-spi-viewmodel/org/netbeans/spi/viewmodel/package-summary.html#package_description
which is more generic but should allow you easily to redesign the hierarchy.
