This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
1. Create a Java project from existing sources 2. On the project node, choose View As -> Physical View 3. Expand two levels, and choose a folder underneath the root folder of the physical view (2 levels down from the project node) 4. In the context menu, choose View As. There are three choices: DataFolder, DataObject, Java Beans. I believe there don't need to be the DataObject and Java Beans choices, as these do not make sense for the user. The choice should always be 'DataFolder', and since this is the only choice, the View As menu item does not need to be there at all.

There is no 'View as' action on nodes in projects tab anymore.
Verified.
