	How to use getNewTypes? by Klaus Martinschitz :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message Hi! I have written a FilterNode to filter a DataFolder object. In my FitlerNode I write @Override public NewType[] getNewTypes() { return new NewType[]{ new NewType() { @Override public void create() throws IOException { ...whatever... } @Override public HelpCtx getHelpCtx() { return super.getHelpCtx(); } @Override public String getName() { return "My New Type"; } } }; } But if I right click my node, nothing is displayed in the new section, only disabled "Empty folder" and "Empty File" menu items. How do I have to override my getActions method correctly? Thanks. Best regards, Klaus

Thanks, I tried this @Override public Action[] getActions(boolean arg0) { return new Action[]{SystemAction.get(NewAction.class)}; } This does not work. There is only a disabled and "Add" labeled MenuItem appearing in my popup menu. Regards, Klaus

In this way, actions are defined in layer.xml and your code is extendable at will. -- Fabrizio Giudici - Java Architect, Project Manager Tidalwave s.a.s. - "We make Java work.

I don't know why, but it does not work in my case. If I debuff my code, the getActions method is called properly. I also have an additional "Add" MenuItem in my popup menu (which is disabled). But my added (extended) NewType "Action" (Don't know why this is called action) neither is part of the submenu "new" nor anything else. I don't see any menuitem with my label defined in the getName method of NewType. Hmmmm. Which NetBeans Platform Version do you use? Thanks. Bye, Klaus

Lookup lkp = ExplorerUtils.createLookup(em, getActionMap()); associateLookup(lkp); That was missing in the constructor of my own TopComponent. Then the action displayed and worked as expected.
