saubrecht: any idea where this is implemented?
I only found this corresponding log lines (TabbedHandler) but with non matching warnings (missing icons - this is wrong, all editor tabs comes with icons): INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeCompanyData.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@3ec67ae5]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeCompContactData.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@d409c32]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeAssignedCustomers.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@74e147e2]] WARNING [org.netbeans.TopSecurityManager]: use of system property netbeans.home has been obsoleted in favor of InstalledFileLocator/Places at org.netbeans.Clusters.relativeDirsWithHome(Clusters.java:137) INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeCompHistoryData.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@4799d30a]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=CompanyEmployeesPanel.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@3da749a4]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeCompanyData.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@3ec67ae5]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeMoveVisualPanel1.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@6ba1d825]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeTopComponent.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@1e587e3]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeCompContactData.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@d409c32]] WARNING [org.openide.filesystems.Ordering]: Relative ordering attribute org-netbeans-modules-favorites-SelectInFavorites.shadow/net-sf-efhnbm-SelectFromHere.shadow on Menu/GoTo is deprecated in favor of numeric position attributes WARNING [org.openide.filesystems.Ordering]: Not all children in Menu/GoTo/ marked with the position attribute: [net-sf-efhnbm-SelectFromHere.shadow], but some are: [org-netbeans-modules-jumpto-file-FileSearchAction.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-jumpto-type-GoToType.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-jumpto-symbol-GoToSymbol.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-spring-beans-jumpto-type-GoToBean.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-gototest-GotoOppositeAction.shadow, org-netbeans-core-windows-actions-RecentViewListAction.shadow, core-windows-SeparatorAfterRecentList.instance, org-netbeans-modules-editor-MainMenuAction$GoToSourceAction.instance, goto-declaration.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-editor-MainMenuAction$GoToSuperAction.instance, Inspect, SeparatorBeforeJumpBack.instance, org-netbeans-modules-editor-impl-actions-NavigationHistoryLastEditAction$MainMenu.instance, org-netbeans-modules-editor-MainMenuAction$JumpBackAction.instance, org-netbeans-modules-editor-MainMenuAction$JumpForwardAction.instance, SeparatorBeforeGoToLine.instance, org-openide-actions-GotoAction.shadow, org-netbeans-editor-bookmarks-ToggleBookmark.shadow, bookmark-history-popup-next.shadow, bookmark-history-popup-previous.shadow, SeparatorAfterBookmarks.instance, org-netbeans-core-actions-JumpNextAction.shadow, org-netbeans-core-actions-JumpPrevAction.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-project-ui-SelectInProjects-separatorBefore.instance, org-netbeans-modules-project-ui-SelectInProjects.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-project-ui-SelectInFiles.shadow, org-netbeans-modules-favorites-SelectInFavorites.shadow] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=EmployeeAssignedCustomers.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@74e147e2]] INFO [org.netbeans.core.windows.view.ui.TabbedHandler]: TopComponent has no icon: MVCTC[name=CompanyAssignedEmployees.java, peer=[model=current=org.netbeans.core.spi.multiview.MultiViewFactory$MapMVD@7e464272]] HTH, josh
And another hint: Also sorting (grouping tabs by project) doesn't work. I've enabled the sorting and the opened editor tabs are not grouped together. (I'll add a screenshot)
Created attachment 143162 [details] Screenshot (sorting)
'Sort opened documents list by project' applies to the drop down menu that opens after clicking 'down arrow' button in the upper right corner of the editor area. It doesn't affect the order of tabs. When 'Background color by project' is on and all the tabs are gray, does menu 'Navigate - Select in Projects' work?

Yes (if not I'll file a P1 Bug ;-) - Navigate works for my. And: "View - Synchronize Editors with Views" works well (but normally I disable this function) br, josh.
I've made some changes in the fix for #244138 Please reopen if still reproducible in latest nightly builds, thanks.
There are only 9 predefined colors for tabs background in version 8.0.2. If you have opened more than 9 projects, some of them will have default gray tabs. Look at org.netbeans.core.multitabs.impl.ProjectColorTabDecorator. Please add more predefined colors. Or you can implement some clever algorithm to generate a set of distinguishable pale colors on demand.
