The icons just don't provide enough context to decide where you are. From nbui: >> Annoying: icons just aren't enough for ctrl-`. Eclipse lists the >> whole filename which is much more useful when you aren't exactly sure >> which editor you want and need some feedback. >> > Agreed - should show the TopComponent.toolTipText here, as the Documents > dialog does. Yeah, the icons are sort of cute but useless (especially if you havelots of files open, and it's just lots of the same java file icon).
Reassigning to openide...
This is window system.
Fixed. New Ctrl-Tab implementation shows filenames + full path in status bar.
Yes, very nice I think.
