Re: Netbeans properties window - change font color for non-editable properties

There are no simple ways to do anything with the Properties window, 
unfortunately.

You might be able to do something with Themes, maybe: 
https://ui.netbeans.org/docs/ui/themes/themes.html

I.e., find the disabled color for a property and then set it to 
something else and include the above file via your module. Yes, not 
pretty, but maybe an approach to consider instead of writing your own 
custom editor.
