Hi -

I'm looking for an extension point that will allow me to add additional information in the Project view, as shown in the highlighted areas in the pic below:

Any ideas what I can use?

Thanks in advance,

Jamie

Every node decides itself what should be shown. In the case above it is PsiDirectoryNode. It fills PresentationData in NodeDescriptor.

Thanks... but, ok, bear with me a second. So what I should do is get a reference to the project view, find the nodes I care about, and set this additional data?

thanks,jamie

You can try, but these values will be updated when underlying tree structure is changed.

I can also suggest using a custom TreeStructureProvider: http://www.jetbrains.org/intellij/sdk/docs/tutorials/tree_structure_view.html

This extension point allows you to modify or replace every node in the project view
