Description Petr Jiricka 2008-07-17 11:29:38 UTC

1. Go to Tools -> Options (NetBeans -> Preferences on Mac)
2. Go to Miscellaneous -> Files

For any extension the "Associated File Type (MIME)" field is disabled and can not be changed.

core/options perhaps?

Justification for P2 please, thanks. I think it's P3.

Comment 2 Petr Jiricka 2008-07-17 13:53:31 UTC

Well, it's a new feature that simply does not work, see: http://qa.netbeans.org/bugzilla/bug_priority_guidelines.html

"Product feature doesn't work, a workaround may exist but it's difficult to use or impractical"

Basically the whole panel is useless right now, that's why I think it's a P2.

I fixed it and also changed UI little bit for better look on Mac.
