Nested Forms
Answered
Hello!
I've made a custom GUI Component (just a combination of label, slider and textfield, "LabeledTextFieldWithSlider").
Added it to my palette and made a simple GUI Form like that on the picture.
The issue is I can't edit these label, slider and textfield's properties directly from Intellij Idea's UI Designer.
I've tried to work around with Client Properties but it's not exactly what I want.
Could anyone help me with that?
Thank you!

Does your component have getter and setter for the label?
Not really, is this the reason?
I've added getters and setters, nothing changed..
I did some research and it appears that Client Properties is the way to go, however, you can't add your own custom components to the tree in the configuration dialog:
IDE is looking into its own classpath for a class, not in the project classpath.
This subsystem is really old, last changes were in 2006.
If you need this feature, I can open a request so that it's fixed for the future updates.
Wow, that would be great for future, I think :)
Thank you for your response!
