I have problem with configuration GXT with GWT Designer. I have all new releases of Eclipse, GWT plugin and GXT and cannot configure GXT to work with GWT Designer. I setup my project so that I can compile my GXT project and run it in browser. However I can't design in GWT Designer. I don't see any GXT widget in GWT Designer. All forums reffer to Google Web Toolkit -> Configure for using Ext-GWT (GXT) but I don't have this option. I have done all steps defined in setup.txt of GXT. The only thing that is not working is GWT designer do not see GXT widgets.

Regrads,

Folks:

It simply appears that GXT 3 is not supported in the latest version of Windowbuilder. Period. All the instructions given in this thread work well for GXT 2, but GXT 3 has radical differences (different styling mechanisms, for one thing!) that Windowbuilder cannot seem to handle.

This is a bug that needs to be fixed in Windowbuilder.
