JPABUDDY tabs not appear in my intellij project

Question

I've installed intellij CE with jpabuddy but jpa buddy not appears to be working in my current project.

This is my current pom.xml dependencies section

This is my current IDE right panel... as you can see JPA Palette is missing.

I'm running IntelliJ in a Kubuntu 22.04

After some research on this question https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71974527/jpa-buddy-missing-from-tool-window-in-intellij#:~:text=To%20see%20the%20JPA%20Buddy,is%20correct%20and%20reimport%20dependencies and some insights in the JPA BUDDY discord I've finally get the issue: It was running in minimalistic mode.

You can disable it following the documentation at its home page:

https://www.jpa-buddy.com/documentation/minimalistic-mode/#enabling-minimalistic-mode

Thanks to your response, I was able to get JPA Buddy to appear in the sideBar of Intellij. Thank you very much. — Jacopo Sabatini, Jan 19 '23 at 10:35

I think you need the install the JPA Buddy plugin to see something in the right panel. Maven JPA dependencies are not enough.

Go to Preferences->Plugins and install JPA Buddy from the marketplace. Restart IntelliJ.

sorry, i've miss to attach an screenshot of the evidence... i've already have the plugin installed – dmance Nov 07 '22 at 18:14
No license - does it work without one? Looks like a paid plugin. I don't use it myself. Spring JDBC is enough for me. – duffymo Nov 07 '22 at 18:26
They have free licence with the features I actually need... I have it at work and I love the JPA Pallete, it helps me to create some methods – dmance Nov 07 '22 at 18:37
Did you restart IntelliJ after installing the plugin? What about viewing Tool windows? Is that required to bring it up? – duffymo Nov 07 '22 at 18:53
Maybe this answer can help you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71974527/jpa-buddy-missing-from-tool-window-in-intellij#:~:text=To%20see%20the%20JPA%20Buddy,is%20correct%20and%20reimport%20dependencies. – duffymo Nov 07 '22 at 18:54
Thanks @duffymo that helped me... For some strange reason it was in minimalistic mode... – dmance Nov 09 '22 at 06:34
