Re: [nebula-dev] XViewer- how to enable save of customizations?

Good questions Chris. I also will need to add other options. I haven't looked at it closely yet but you may be able to override some of the parent functions to meet your needs. However, that probably wouldn't hold true for new options? Not sure about the intent of the XML entries other than it appears to be inconsistent?

Thanks, Mike.  I've got it working - saving and loading customizations to/from our
preferences folder.

Next question - the UI shows the entire XML tag in the value of the sort field, e.g.:
  <xSorter><id>Name</id></xSorter>
while the filter field does not show any XML, e.g. it shows:
  "3" instead of "<xFilter>3</xFilter>"
Is this a bug or a feature?  Showing XML doesn't seem like something intended for the
end-user to see (and change)...so maybe a bug?


Finally, we need to add more things into the customization dialog - additional
filters (non text-based) and some other options. Do you know if anyone has gone
down this road? Had you envisioned any way to make the customizations dialog
extensible?

TIA!
Chris
