Description Peter Pis 2006-02-02 09:38:28 UTC
Nb 5.5 Preview (build 2006.02.01), jdk1.5.0_06

Steps:
1. Create new Enterprise application. 
2. Create new servet and use package that contains a lot of chars. (type some
long string there)

"Created File" field changes with the package. If this field can't be displayed
whole (cos it's too long) then comboboxes change their height.
Comment 1 Martin Krauskopf 2006-06-05 10:39:30 UTC
I can't reproduce something similar. Do you mean "Web Application" in the first
step and "servlet" in the second step? Moreover the textfield is enabled
non-editable textfield, thus it does not mind how long text you put into it.
Please if you still can reproduce, please elaborate a little (or attach
screenshot) and reopen. Thanks.
Comment 2 Peter Pis 2006-06-05 10:49:08 UTC
Still reproducible... See attached pictures...

Height of compoments in dialog is changed...
Comment 3 Peter Pis 2006-06-05 10:49:31 UTC

Yup, I see. Probably L&F specific. Can't reproduce with Ocean, but can similarly
to XP screenshot with Substance. Petre could you affirm that this problem is
reproducible with Package comboboxes in (almost) all wizards (e.g. new "Java
Class")? Thanks.
I believe that the culprit is in call JavaTemplates.createPackageChooser() which
is part of java/project. Very likely JavaTargetChooserPanelGUI class.
Comment 7 Peter Pis 2006-06-05 11:27:37 UTC
Yes, it is reproducible for wizards containing Package comboboxes.
Comment 8 David Strupl 2009-03-31 15:58:35 UTC
Resolving all issues with milestone "future" as LATER. If you feel strongly that
it should be implemented please reopen and set the target milestone to "next".
