    So I am making an extension and I got the following rejection:
    In accordance with our policies, we would ask that you nest your editor extension within an existing tab rather than creating your own. We do allow extensions to be put under a "Tools" tab, if you don't find any of the other tabs applicable. This is to avoid the toolbar becoming cluttered.

    So here is my app: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B570LiWnBYMhbEtvbnJTYkN1RGs

    I was wondering do they mean I need to move the property drawer into it's own Editor window? What is the Tools Tab. I don't think I've seen that before.

    Thanks

    This literally means to move your dropdown menu from the Tools dropdown over to an existing dropdown that is more appropriate, like the Window dropdown.

    So instead of Tools>MyProduct>MyProductAction you would have Window>MyProduct>MyProductAction. Simply change the MenuItem attribute in your script.
