Any ideas?

I got that, too. I don't have IDETalk installed. It appeared after
migration to 5.1 for the first time.

Hello Jochen,

Hi...

occasionally I get a tab called DC on the bottom part, I have only
simpleUML and IDETalk plugins installed, is one of them creating this?

This is the DebugConsole Window of simpleUML. You can show it using ctrl-alt-shift-D
when focus is in a classdiagram. It redirects System.out/System.err of Idea
to the TextArea in the ToolWindow. This was quite handy when developing and
debugging simpleUML. Pressing ctrl-alt-shift-O in a classdiagram prints some
infos (FQN, selection state) of the open classes, but probably nothing really
useful for users.

Yep thanks for info!

Ciao

I'm sorry, this wasn't supposed to go into the release version of
simpleUML.

As Martin mentioned, this is a window which captures System.out (I
didn't know that you can bring it up with a shortcut, so I just
registered it in the plugin.xml) You can close it safely.
