Description laurin1 2010-03-23 16:37:24 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 2010-03-23_09-04-44 )
Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_17
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 14.3-b01

In all versions 6.8 and prior, when you use AutoComplete, the parameters in the function are used as fields to be entered and tabbed through.

For example, if I type 

mysql_f and then CONTROL+SPACE, then select mysql_fetch_array($result, $result_type), I get exactly that. What used to happen then was my cursor would 
highlight $result and I could type and overwrite $result and then tab to $result_type and type and overwrite that parameter. Now, after AutoComplete lays down mysql_fetch_array($result, $result_type), my cursor is just put after the ) and that's it.

@reporter: i did very basic test only but looks like it works well. Check out your use-cases, please, and reopen if you find out it is not working properly. thanks.
Comment 3 laurin1 2010-04-09 17:47:13 UTC 
It's working. It's a lot slower than it used to be and I used to be able to use tab here as well, now I have to hit enter. Also, now when I hit enter, sometimes it turns off all of my color formatting for the file that I am in until I type for a bit. All in all, it's working and usable..just not perfect.
Comment 4 rmatous 2010-04-09 18:01:12 UTC 
Yes, its slower(comparing to previous builds where the bug existed, but shouldn't be slower than in 6.8) - because now it is formatted template.

I don't understand the comment about tab versus enter, please explain

As Radek wrote, more explanation on that enter usage and coloring malfunction would be great. I think, it should be new issue (coloring error), if you reproduce again. thanks.
Comment 6 laurin1 2010-04-12 13:15:02 UTC 
Ignore that, it's good. The coloring problem is a different issue and I'll update that one.
Comment 7 Filip Zamboj 2010-04-14 12:06:03 UTC 
regression => P2 

this fix didn't make it to beta as on 04/14/2010 (Build 201004092101). Radek, push this to beta clone, please.
