To provide custom Structure View behaviour, implement TreeStructureProvider with the nodes filtering logic in modify() method. The example below shows how to filter out all the Project View nodes except those which correspond to text files and directories.

Compile and Run the Plugin
See Code Samples on how to set up and run the plugin.
After going through the steps described above, you can see only text files and directories belonging to a project in the Project View.
