Description

Consider the following changes: - In one mode container (separate frame in SDI) can't be component in more places (like used to be explorer+properties, two TopComponents in one container). - There also a plan to have only one status line also for editors, such status line will be at the bottom of main window, which is completely fine for MDI, but it would seems somehow bad in SDI, what to do with this? ... add also other differences if you remember. The high level overview of differences between old SDI and new SDI ("separated windows") windowing system modes: - new SDI mode has window sets instead of workspaces (for description of window sets read the winsys ui spec) - it is not possible to split a window, except the editor window - it is possible to split editor window using DnD Hmm, this info must be merged into some migration guide for module writers. Do you plan to do it? Okay, so I mentioned SDI in the windowing system UI spec. http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/ui/ws/ws_spec.html#3.14 I have also put the migration guide on the web, but it doesn't contain much SDI specific info. I would add more info into this document if there is any specific demand for doing it. http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/ui/ws/ws_spec-migration_guide.html *** Issue 36798 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** |
