View Gradle dependency tree in Eclipse

Is it possible to visualize the dependency tree from inside of Eclipse (e.g. the output of gradle dependencies)? Expanding the Gradle Dependencies tree in Eclipse is a flat view and does not show dependencies for other projects (e.g. if I have a dependency compile project(':project2'), none of project2's dependencies are shown).

Based on this it looks like a tree view is not supported?

Basically I'm looking for the equivalent of this in the maven plugin:

At the time of writing, neither Spring Eclipse Integration Gradle nor Buildship provide a Dependency Hierarchy view we know from m2e.

I don't know when this has been implemented but you can do a gradle dependencies either on command-line or via Buildship Gradle Tasks view within Eclipse. This prints a nice dependency tree of your project's dependencies to the console.
