Marián Labuda commented on JBIDE-20730:
---------------------------------------

[~fbricon] in OS 3 docs https://docs.openshift.org/latest/architecture/core_concepts/projects_and_users.html#projects there is "The optional displayName is how the project is displayed in the web console (defaults to name)." 

Currently it is possible to have following projects under a OpenShift 3 connection:
displayName _project1_
displayName _project2_

where project1 and project2 are project names = IDs but they are decorated. That's the reason why I suggested to show it 
project1 _displayName_
project2 _displayName_
to have non-decorated text for ID and decorated for additional info - displayed name.

But if you guys are ok with current state, I can live with it :)

> OpenShift 3 project is displayed a bit tricky in OpenShift Explorer view. If project has only project name, then project name is shown as normal text in OpenShift Explorer view under an OpenShift 3 connection. But if a project has set also an optional attribute displayName, then this name is used as a normal text under an OpenShift 3 connection and it's name is used only as a decorated text in parenthesis. Example:
> Project 01 has name: project01
> Project 02 has name: project02 and displayName: projectName02
> In OpenShift Explorer view are those projects shown as
> project01
> projectName02 (project02)
> One could think that project01 and projectName02 are the same attribute of a project, but it's not. I think we could and should show projects like this:
> project01 (project01)
> projectName02 (project02)
> because default value for a displayName is attribute name. In that case it would be consistent and user would not be confused.
