Description Roman Strobl 2005-07-08 18:29:49 UTC 
[NetBeans 200507061800; WinXP; JDK 1.5.0_04]

Unlike in 4.1 it is currently not possible to see javadoc for costructors. In
4.1 you can press Alt-Space to see possible constructors and browse their
javadocs. In 4.2 we have changed it to showing parameters by pressing Alt-P.
However it is not possible to see javadocs of individual contructors anymore. 

Marking as P2 because it can be considered as regression in functionality.
Comment 1 Martin Roskanin 2005-07-12 14:18:29 UTC 
This problem was already reported.
The reason why you cannot see javadocs is that you cannot see constructors in
completion. (Using Ctrl+Shift+Space you can get actual javadoc for constructor.)
