Description denbo 2009-03-20 15:53:25 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200902231810 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

When opening object nodes ([+]-Icon) in Local Variables view etc, the
indentation is too small. Like this, the tree structure is hard to
recognize. Also the [+]-Icon should have a little space after it (and
before the node icon).

P3 in my opinion because I have severe problems using the debugger
like this.
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2009-03-23 11:37:46 UTC 
The rendering is implemented in Outline.
Comment 2 Stanislav Aubrecht 2009-04-07 14:37:54 UTC 
the new outline/outlineview is just a JTable subclass so there's no horizontal scrollbar as in TreeTableView. increasing
column indentation means that deeper hierarchies would be difficult to read (column resizing would be required)
