Java Beans Custom Propery Editor Support

    Description

      Hi there;

      1. The current Netbeans Gui Builder supports Custom Property Editor Support. It's a a very nice feature, and we use it in our company a lot.

      2. Will Scene Builder support Custom Property Editor in the future for fx widgets? If it will, what will be the version? It will be a major factor to use fx widgets.

      3. Here is one case we use it a lot.
          Our many custom widgets support various same data types (more that 20). For example our custom textfield support Angle, Range, Speed, Latitude, Tempeature etc. When programmer choose one datatype in Gui Builder, our Custom Propery Editor shows various property list (unit, decimal point, max, min, etc) for that datatype.
          One way to do that is make many widgets for each datatype which is not feasible for us. We have to make many widgets . And for some widgets it is impossible to do that. For example, We use custom tables supporting our data types. For each column, developer may choose a datatype, and he/she can fill the desired properties.
