Hi, Is it possible to enhance Java Outline view to show extended classes and inherited methods ? Presently the Type Hierarchy view shows this information and is much more powerful. But most of the time one has the Outline view for navigation. All we need is to group all "extended methods" and "implemented methods" under it's own node in the Outline view. This improves "class structure" readability and navigation. One can always use the Hierarch View for futher drilling (up or down). JBuilder 2005 free edition does exactly this -- with filters to configure what you see in the view and how you see it ( flat , tree etc. ) Please consider this for future. Cheers
Tip: try Ctrl+O or Ctrl+H when in the Java editor. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 8625 ***

Then this window tells you to press Ctrl+O again to see inherited methods. And then after a few seconds a listing comes up and before you get to look at it the window dismisses itself ( looks like a bug waiting to be fixed). All we want is the inherited methods grouped together in the outline view under the corresponding classes and interfaces. Please try JB2005 free edition if you get a moment. To appretiate the usefulness of such a grouping. Cheers.

>I tried Ctrl+O a window similar to the Outline View comes up ( which seems >redundant since the outline view is always open for most of us as it is the most >important view for java dev Most of us no longer use the Outline view but prefer the quick views. It gives more space to the editor area. >Then this window tells you to press Ctrl+O again >to see inherited methods. And then after a few seconds a listing comes up and >before you get to look at it the window dismisses itself ( looks like a bug >waiting to be fixed). Works just fine for me using R3.1 or newer on WindowsXP. Please file a bug report with steps to reproduce. Note that if you click somewhere else than the quick view it closes per design. >Further more Ctrl+H does not do anything on my installation. Must have been >remapped - is there a menu option for this ? My fault: it is Ctrl+T, however, Ctrl+H normally brings up the Search dialog. Maybe you installed some additional plug-ins that mess with key bindings and that eventually also breaks "Ctrl+O Ctrl+O".
