Remove categories from palette

[trixtan]

Is it possible to remove all default categories and have only my custom categories displayed?

Thank you
Kind regards

You can do so via the .*.wbp-palette-commands.xml files.

For example, in order you to remove Swing categories, you need to create a org.eclipse.wb.swing.wbp-palette-commands.xml file in your wbp-meta folder. For testing purposes, you can add it to your project but in general, it needs to be part of the classpath.

The following snippet shows how to remove the "System" category.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<commands>
	<removeCategory id="org.eclipse.wb.swing.system"/>
</commands>

When opening the editor, it then looks as follows:
