Early Access
Early Access (EA) means that you can download and test-drive
lastest builds of the next JFormDesigner release.
This is preview software. Use it at your own risk.

Changes
EA7 (2008-07-02)
- Convert Abeille forms to JFormDesigner forms.
- Improved keyboard navigation in Design view.
- Minor improvements for GroupLayout support.
- Help updated.
- Bug fixes.
EA6 (2008-06-06)
- IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse plug-ins: The improved conversion of
IntelliJ IDEA
forms now removes IDEA's GUI code (e.g. $$$setupUI$$$() method and
component fields) and also uses the same modifiers (public, private,
protected, etc) for the new component fields as the removed fields.
This makes the migration from IntelliJ IDEA GUI builder to
JFormDesigner seamless.
- Support for custom borders.
- Support for JTable.selectionMode property fixed.
- Bug fixes.
EA5 (2008-05-22)
- Support for JTable.selectionMode property.
- Improved NetBeans form conversion (support for NetBeans 6.x).

EA4 (2008-04-30)
- Java code generator: Support custom code indentation. The IDE
plug-ins are using the IDE code style settings of the project or
