Description David-john Burrowes 2003-12-12 22:08:02 UTC 
Issue 37943 points out that the notion of
"customize" is used very inconsistently in the
IDE, and the HIE group has concluded that it would
be beneficial if the existing "customizers" were
all dealt with differently.

There are at least three customizers on portions
of a Java class that appear in the filesystems
view (the class itself, fields and methods). 
While these look nice, we suspect that they aren't
actually needed (these details can be changed in
the source code quite quickly), and the similar
information in the new class wizard is probably
going to be removed.
Comment 1 Chris Ledantec 2003-12-15 10:32:50 UTC 
agreed. we should get rid of the custoimzers that are removed from the wizard. the 
utility of them is questionable but if there is a significant user need/expectation for 
them we'll consider that...

Jan, do you see a problem with gettting rid of the corresponding custoimzers from the 
java node?
Comment 2 Jan Pokorsky 2003-12-15 13:52:54 UTC 
I personally do not use that customizers at all. IMO the work flow to
edit a source file via them is not optimal. In order to customize
members of the java source you have to visit the member customizer,
javadoc customizer, beans customizer.

Anyway the best place to address potential clients of the customizers
is nbusers@netbeans.org IMHO.
Comment 3 Chris Ledantec 2004-01-05 14:13:03 UTC 
a quick pulse of nbusers indicates that these customizers are not used (though other 
bits of functionality would provide some benefit to the folks on that list). i recommend 
we remove the customizers that correspond to the panels removed from the new java 
class wizard.
Comment 4 Jan Pokorsky 2004-08-10 10:56:13 UTC 
Gabo, this contradicts your ui spec for nb 4.0
(http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/hi/promoD/jdk15support.html). Is this
still valid from the hie point of view? Please close it if not.
Comment 5 Martin Matula 2004-11-12 23:13:52 UTC 
This should be addressed in 4.1 or closed as WONTFIX.
Comment 6 Jan Becicka 2005-03-18 12:14:05 UTC 
Gabo is not responisble for this issue any more. Rudo please take a look at it.
Thanks
Comment 7 Jan Becicka 2005-05-06 14:05:04 UTC 
There are no customizers on java nodes in latest build
