Created attachment 149169 [details] Shows the drag 'n drop from the editor mode to explorer mode I've troubles with the option Mix.Editors.And.Views.Enabled=false TopComponent that have been opened for the first time via "@TopComponent.OpenActionRegistration" could be moved to other "modes". If I restart the application, the component remains in the "Editor mode". But again I can create new instances and drag them to other "modes". I use the default "New Window" template with on exception. I disable the preferredID in OpenActionRegistration to open multiple instances. Example: @ConvertAsProperties( dtd = "-//de.sepix.app.sxcustdirectory.ui//DragTest//EN", autostore = false ) @TopComponent.Description( preferredID = "DragTestTopComponent", persistenceType = TopComponent.PERSISTENCE_ALWAYS ) @TopComponent.Registration(mode = "editor", openAtStartup = false) @ActionID(category = "Window", id = "de.sepix.app.sxcustdirectory.ui.DragTestTopComponent") @ActionReference(path = "Menu/Window" /*, position = 333 */) @TopComponent.OpenActionRegistration( displayName = "#CTL_DragTestAction" ) Mix.Editors.And.Views.Enabled=false is set via branding in org-netbeans-core-windows.jar at \modules\org-netbeans-core-windows.jar\org\netbeans\core\windows\Bundle.properties For my tests I've cleaned the Windows2Local folder. The screenshot shows the situation (I hope) br, josh.
