Check the content of the XUI.jar (rename to .zip)
add a customview.b4x_excluded to the jar

Thanks @DonManfred , let me play around and see what I can come up with.

I see why I dismissed this, its not prefixed with B4X and I assumed it only applies to B4A. It works, wow, great stuff.

Anyway

1. Create your B4J library as you would normally create it.
2. Create your skeleton class modules that you want to include it in your library that will be a templates
3. Rename the extension from .bas to .b4x_excluded and ensure the header content is removed on your class, this would be...

B4J=true
Group=Default Group
ModulesStructureVersion=1
Type=Class
Version=6.51
@EndOfDesignText@

This should be for all the templates.
4. Open your library .jar file with 7 zip / any compressor and drag and drop the .b4x_excluded files there.
5. Open the xml file that came with your compiled library and for each template add a line just before the closing </root> element

<customClass>filenamewithoutextension:MashyClass, name:Mashy Nice Class</customClass>

Where MashyClass is the exact name of your file name without .b4x_excluded.

Ta!
