Interface PaletteEditor

All Superinterfaces:

Invokable

public interface PaletteEditor
extends Invokable

The PaletteEditor interface should be implemented by clients that are interested in adding their own invokable dialogs to the Component Palette. By creating your own PaletteEditor, you can tell any item on the palette to invoke your editor by changing the editor tag in the palette.xml file.
