This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
To reproduce: 1. Select any executable in the Explorer window and rename it to long name ABBBBBBBBBBBBBBC. 2. Push F7 (step into) 3. In Debugger Sessions view tab to the Name column, which has scroll bar (decrease the Name column, if there is no scroll bar). Focus should be in the cell with name. 4. I want to see end of name and to push right arrow key, name moved on one position. ISSUE: After that pushing arrow key does nothing, name does not moved in the right/left side. The same result is for other debugger views. Product Version: Sun ONE Studio 8 (Build 030827) -- Rainier build19 IDE Versioning: IDE/1 spec=3.42.1 impl 030827 Operating System: SunOs version 5.8 running on sparc Java: 1.4.1_03
The scrollbar doesn't get the focus then it cannot be moved by keyboard. In general TTV isn't keyboard friendly, one of should-have improvements.
pls note that pressing the right and left arrow keys expand and collapse tree nodes so i don't think it should ever be possible to move the scrollbar with arrow keys. it may be better to use alt/shift/ctrl + arrow keys to resize the column instead.
the treetable behavior is in accordance with a standard JTree - the left and arrow keys do not move the horizontal scrollbar either (try swingset demo). closing the issue.
