Description Michael Nazarov 2008-02-08 12:08:38 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200802080008)
Java: 1.6.0_04; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b19
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1251; ru_RU (nb)

It's possible to use drag-drop from palette in the Design view. If element
dropped into empty space (ex.: between two existing elements) then newly
added element automatically prompts for entering new name. If element
dropped on the existing element then new one adds silently without any
prompts just as newElement, newElement1 etc. So one should specially
use Rename feature to set required name.
