Description MarkFlacy 2015-12-29 02:09:28 UTC
While I would *like* to be able to use GroupID and ArtifactID to locate a jar from my local maven repository when attempting to add a class via the Palette Manager, I could certainly live with being able to browse into my ~/.m2 directory to find the particular jar that I would like to use.

Unfortunately, the "Install Components to Palette" wizard does not allow you to traverse into a "hidden" directory (if it does allow you to do that, the toggle is wonderfully well hidden).

Please allow me to show hidden files/directories so that I may find the jar that I want to use.
