Description Michael Nazarov 2009-04-21 08:18:06 UTC
There is no max limit for installer dialog, so it might be sided pretty wide. Dialog became bit
corrupted at right side if it's wider then 3008 pixels. Check screenshot.

Comment 2 dlipin 2009-04-21 10:27:29 UTC
does it work with JDK6?
Comment 3 Michael Nazarov 2009-04-21 10:33:32 UTC
Corruption even worse with 1.6.
Comment 4 dlipin 2009-04-28 15:08:08 UTC
->P4, corner case, works fine with default size.
Comment 5 Michael Nazarov 2009-04-28 15:13:47 UTC
No it doesn't work fine even after back to normal size using jdk1.6. 
Comment 6 dlipin 2009-05-04 09:29:27 UTC
Does NetBeans work with such resolutions and widths?
Comment 7 Michael Nazarov 2009-05-04 09:31:55 UTC
Yes, NetBeans itself works fine.
Comment 8 dlipin 2009-05-04 09:32:18 UTC
could you please check (the installer work) on the other windows system? it could be an issue with the video drivers on 
this system.
Comment 9 Michael Nazarov 2009-05-04 09:35:45 UTC
I'll check if you describe how drivers detect is it particular installer dialog or any other java-based or native dialog
in the system.
This is the only dialog I found which became corrupted -- why drivers?

I`ve tried different resolutions for both monitors and different configurations (dual view, horizontal span) - no luck, 
can`t reproduce it. It works fine with both JDK 5 and 6.

I have NVIDIA 7300GT with the latest drivers (182.50 03/27/2009) running on Windows XP SP3.
Yes, you use some another video card (ATI Radeon) so most probably the issue is in video drivers, try use the latest 
ones, maybe that helps.

Can`t do anything about that. Closing as wontfix.
