[ BUILD # : 201210180002 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.7.9 ] The new(?) properties editor is great. Though it is not possible to switch to the plain text editor from within the editor. (This may be due to being a development version) Preferred way to switch would be like the "history" button in Java code editor. Use case: local history, show annotations from VCS It is possible to get to the plain editor when clicking the file in the projects view. When opening the file from the "Go To File" dialog it is opened in the property-view.
