How to display json in a new window? Follow
Answered
I have added a menu item to the debugger menu. After certain manipulations, I get a json string. Now I need to display this json string in a new window with highlighting and other things (collapsing code blocks, line numbering). The window should not close by itself. How do I do this?
public class DebuggerTreeActionImpl extends DebuggerTreeAction {
@Override
protected void perform(XValueNodeImpl node, @NotNull String nodeName, AnActionEvent e) {
//my code ...
String json = "here is json";
//Here you need to create a window and display json.
}

Hi,
I don't understand what you mean that the window should not close by itself.
I suggest opening dialog: https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/dialog-wrapper.html
and using https://plugins.jetbrains.com/docs/intellij/editor-components.html#editortextfield
in the dialog.
Karol Lewandowski The modal window blocks the parent window, am I right? I need to create a window by the event, and so that the creation of this window does not affect the operation of all the main windows and tabs.
It doesn't have to block the parent window. It depends on the "modal" flag:

The link above is the implementation of dialog which is invoked with Evaluate Expression... action while debugging. It's not modal, so you can see and use its content and use the debugger at the same time.
