I wonder if it is possible, to hide some packages (or directories) from the netbeans package view window.
Currently, I am working on a project, which has many projects, but I only know some of them.
I like the list view, so just collapsing it to a tree is not what I'm searching for.
Thanks in advance!
You can't hide only some packages of some project, you've got opened. You can only show/hide whole projects. If you don't want to have so many projects opened in your current perspective, just click with you RMB to that project and click Close. Then press select it with LMB and press Delete. Just be sure NOT to check Delete files also on local disc, otherwise, you permanently lost your files!!!

I am working on an android project. I was just trying to split the view so that I could see two files side by side, when I lost the view. Basically, I grabbed apple.xml file and slide it to split the screen. This normally works. But, someone bumped into me and then when I looked, the file I just moved to split was gone. So I thought I closed it by accident (as the other files were still there). So I double clicked the apple.xml file in package explorer, but it did not open. So I decided to close all. And then when I double click on any of my files none of them opened: java or xml. A grey view shows as if it's where the file should be. But strange enough, the outline view for the file is shown.
How do I get the view back?
I find a workaround for the problem. I wouldn't call it a solution, so I am hoping someone who understands better can explain what happened and how to actually fix it.
workaround
click on the menu window
click on New Window
close the old window
Is there a way to extend the “Open Call Hierarchy” function to the whole working set or workspace? (i.e. across multiple projects)
This would be very handy when searching for deprecated methods and dependencies.
By default Open Call Hierarchy searches in workspace. Click on down arrow in Call Hierarchy view to see Search In... and Search Scope options.
Guide to find down arrow:
In the Call Hierarchy view window from the right there are Maximize, Minimize and View Menu. View Menu is represented by a triangle pointing down and that is what you need to click.
Could somebody tell me if it is possibile to open two instances of the same project in Intellj IDEA or can I for example have two windows with opened different project files with attached project explorer.
I asking for that because I have two monitors and it will be more efficient to navigate on each windows separately.
For now I must drag tab from root window and drop to another window which it is annoying and unhandy.
This is not possible. IntelliJ IDEA has a one project one window paradigm.
Some suggestions, in order of best to worst, that may help:
The navigation bar (Alt+Home or ⌥⇱ {Option Home}) can be used in place of the project tool window. You can use it either in pop-up mode or anchored mode (View > Navigation Bar). When a file is opened via the navigation bar, it opens in the window that has focus. The nav bar is ultimately a horizontal project window. Check the help documents for how to easily navigate through the nav bar. Once you get use to it, you may find you never use the project tool window again.
Have you tried floating the project window and placing it on the edge of one of the monitors so it sites between the two editor windows? While you would still need to drag file to the second editor window, it might prove easier.
You could create a second project with the all the same modules as the first project (just being sure to save the second project's .idea configuration directory in a different location). But this would require keeping two project configurations in sync, and you would need to make sure the "synchronize files on frame activation" setting is on. In the end, I think that is far more hassle then it is worth.
Hope that helps.

I am learning Java using Eclipse - started a project with javax.swing and could view a design page with my page layouts shown and various palets for components etc. Now this design page seems to have vanished and I cant discover any option to recover it. I hope someone can get me back on track.
Have you tried Right-click on class (for example MySwingPanel.java) in package editor Open With->WindowBuilder Editor?
The last time you selected something in Open With - this is the editor to open that file on double click.
Have you tried changing the Perspective? Click the arrows next to the DDMS tab in the upper right hand corner of Eclipse and select the 'Java' Perspective.
I am making a set of Eclipse Plugins.
Each of these plugins display some data with respect to a project in the Eclipse Workspace.
What is the best practice/solution for loading data with respect to a unique project in each of these views?
I have the following options with me
1.)I provide a dropdown in each of the views and when the user changes dropdown the view gets refreshed with the respective project data.
2.)I give the User a "Load All Views" button when he right clicks in the package explorer and when he clicks this all views get loaded with the respective project data from package explorer
3.)Is there some other standard way?
Option 1.) seems to be the cleaner and unambiguous way to go.
Communication across views can be done using the selection service
