Dear Rebecca, Thank you for contacting us. We do not have any extensions which would allow you to contribute to the Oxygen Preferences page. But you are not the first developer to request this and we'll try to implement such an extension in a future version. We'll notify you when we do. For now indeed as a workaround you will have to build a Workspace Access plugin, contribute to the main menu bar an entry which shows the custom plugin settings dialog, then use the API "PluginWorkspace.getOptionsStorage()" to load and store your preferences together with the other Oxygen options.

I'm working on a plugin extension for standalone Oxygen that will have some user-configurable settings, and I was wondering if there is any standard way to handle that type of thing. In particular, it would be neat if there was a way for a plugin to define options to be listed in the global Preferences.

My current plan is to build a simple dialog box that with the needed input fields and store the user's input in the workspace option storage, but I wanted to check before I implement it in case there is a better option available.

I'd appreciate any suggestions or input. Thanks.
