Description Pascal Rapicault CLA 2010-10-30 14:48:20 EDT 
By default the "open type from maven repository" action (available from the navigate menu) will not find anything because the default option for index retrieval is "minimum indexed-enabled" whereas the "full index" is needed.
Because of these defaults which I believe are results of a desire to not consume too much bandwidth from central, the user experience is degraded. 
I suggest that when no results are being found, we suggest to the user to look at the repository index options, and probably even guide him to the view.
Comment 1 Igor Fedorenko CLA 2011-08-01 01:02:13 EDT 
support for classname index has been removed from m2e, so this enhancement request is obsolete.
