public class PaletteNode
extends TreeNode

An object representing a component which the user may create dynamically within an application.

A PaletteNode expresses visual properties for how the palette will display it (eg title, icon) as well as instructions for creating the component the paletteNode represents (type, defaults).

Various types of palettes (ListPalette, TreePalette, MenuPalette, TilePalette) render a PaletteNode in different ways, and allow the user to trigger creation in different ways (eg drag and drop, or just click). All share a common pattern for how components are created from palettes.

Note that in a TreePalette, a PaletteNode is essentially a TreeNode and can have properties expected for a TreeNode (eg, showDropIcon). Likewise a PaletteNode in a MenuPalette can have the properties of a MenuItem, such as MenuItem.enableIf().
