I opened this Issue to keep track of forum discussions to improve the Materials editor.

I'm a bit reluctant to go back to the old style tab views for properties, since I like the option to have everything visible on large screens. But I'm thinking perhaps we could do something with collapsible tabs? Not sure if there is anything built into Swing, but shouldn't be that hard to implement.

Hi Rickard, I am glad you are working on improving the editor. AFAIK, there is no collapsible panel in Java Swing. Maybe you can find one already built with some external library.

I've made the panels a bit more flexible: #531

@capdevon Please check the latest SDK release and see if you find the panels improved.
