Description jrojcek 2007-12-04 13:15:11 UTC
Problem description and solution:

As part of the pack consolidation for 6.0 we integrated most of the editor related options into the Editor options category. There's still a few things 
missing. First, move all editor options from Advanced dialog into the Editor category (eliminate those obscure options that don't make sense to keep). 
Second, integrate editor options from all languages (Java, C/C++, Ruby, PHP, etc.) into Editor category. See the spec (maybe needs an update):
http://ui.netbeans.org/docs/ui/options2/ 

---

Note that even though I'm filing this issue as part of the 6.1 planning, the real intention is to address this issue in one of the upcoming releases.

Does this relate in any way to issue #90522?

'Insert Single Proposals Automatically' == 'Code Completion Instant Substitution'

'Auto Popup Javadoc window' is NOT already present in the Completion Settings of the Editor tab and it should be added
there.

I assume that once I choose a language e.g. 'Java' in the Language combo in some panel then all the other panels will
start to show 'Java' settings automatically too, right?

Yes, it is related to issue #90522. This one is Editor specific and focuses also on integrating editor options that are already in the new options dialog.

Ondra is the right person to answer questions related to the editor options UI spec.

Right ;).

Vita is working on it.

This has been done. There are no editor related settings in Advanced Options now.

This is still to be done and I filed a separate task for it - see issue #137318.
