[ BUILD # : 200503061900 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_01 ]

The option to use a tree in the package view is nice but since almost all my projects have a package structure where the first three levels are the same, e g "se.grim.doi" or "se.grim.effie", I always have to expand a few levels to get to something interesting. What if the "Package View Type" option was changed to some thing like "Package View Flat Levels". Leaving it empty could mean infinite and give the same result as the current "Package View" setting. A value of three would give the following result after expanding the Source node:

Source
+ META-INF
+ se.grim.doi

Expanding the doi node gives:

Source
+ META-INF
+ se.grim.doi
  + controller
  + model
  + view

After expanding the model package I would get

Source
+ META-INF
+ se.grim.doi
  + controller
  + model
  | + ejb
  | + naming
  | DoiBroker.java
  + view

A setting like this is naturally best to have on the project level since I could then change the flat count to four for the doi project when I don't intend to add more packages directly below the doi level.
