Hi Geertjan, Any reason why you recommend that approach? Is TableView deprecated in favor of OutlineView? I’m using Netbeans 12.4 for my Platform development.
OutlineView (http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-explorer/org/openide/explorer/view/OutlineView.html <http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-explorer/org/openide/explorer/view/OutlineView.html>) TableView (http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-explorer/org/openide/explorer/view/TableView.html <http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-explorer/org/openide/explorer/view/TableView.html>) If I use OutlineView I still have the questions I posted in my original email. Do you have any ideas how to accomplish them? - Tim > On Jul 2, 2021, at 4:54 PM, Geertjan Wielenga > <geertjan.wiele...@googlemail.com> wrote: > > Recommend to use OutlineView instead. > > Gn > > On Fri, 2 Jul 2021 at 22:44, Gheorghe TUDOSE <tudo....@gmail.com > <mailto:tudo....@gmail.com>> wrote: > Oh my...
