Reassigning to "autoupdate". Thanks for feedback. Take note you can deactivate whole category like "Web & Java EE" from popup menu over some of Web & Java EE plugins. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 103701 *** Created attachment 68517 [details]

Mock screen for proposed category settings dialog form in Installed plugin tab.
I would like to reopen the enhancement request as it differs from 103701 in that: 1. The settings should be context sensitive to the settings saved for particular project and not universal. 2. The suggested features are intended to be standardized for all the plug-ins installed in IDE. This will give consolidated view of the categories that are activate/deactivated in concise way rather than having to scan through long list of all the installed plug-ins in main list. 3. Further custom IDE profiles can be created and saved for future projects. Selecting particular type of projects from new project wizard can thus give pre-saved plugin profile options to deactivate non-applicable plug-in. Just a suggestion. Thanks. p.s: Please check with mock screen shots for suggested changes. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 103701 *** |
