[kind/enhancement]

What versions of software are you using?

  • Operating System: MacOS
  • IntelliJ version: HEAD
  • OpenShift version: Red Hat Sandbox

What did you run exactly?

Steps:

  1. ASSERT: have a locally created component in your Red Hat sandbox image
  2. EXEC: pick "New Component" in the context menu of your project ("adietish-dev" in my case)

Result: In the upcoming dialog "Create component" the component types are all grayed out. At first sight one doesn't understand why. It's only after a 2nd closer look that one discovers the explanation on top of it: "Context already has a devfile, component type selection is not required" image

Expected Result: The explanation should be stand out more, should be made more prominent so that I as a noob user gets it instantly why I cannot select a component type.
