Re: [m2e-users] Dependency graph in new m2e plugin

If you want them you can port them to the current version of m2e, there is an extension point to add pages to the pom editor.  That said the Dependency Hierarchy view probably has the information you're looking for.

Previous versions had a checkbox that let you add all kinds of advanced tabs to the pom editor, including the dependency graph tab. That option and the dependency graph tab are now gone. I used the dependency graph a LOT, as I like the format much better than the dependency hierarchy.

I kinda figured that but thought I'd ask. It seems to be a pretty constant thing with Maven and associated tools with people telling me what I need and what I don't need. Making progress by going backwards is truly outstanding.

Well, IntelliJ CE has the dependency graph feature AND doesn't break backwards compatibility with projects created with earlier versions (I guess that's something else they say you don't really need). Same price point too.
