Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201004150201) Operating System = Linux version 2.6.32-20-generic running on i386 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_19 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.2-b04 When using the Block Outdent feature, if the cursor is in positon 0 of a line, the line is ignored for the outdent; however, if the cursor is in position 1 or higher, the line is included in the block. To reproduce: Move the cursor to position 0 (assuming a zero based index for the line) Select a block of text using <Shift><Down> (Any number of lines will do, as long as the cursor remains in position 0 and there is text on the line on which the cursor sits.) Invoke Block Outdent using <Shift><Tab> All lines in the block except the line the cursor is on will have outdented Now repeat with the cursor in a different position on the line. The line on which the curor sits outdents with the rest of the block.
I went back and checked 6.8. This behavior is consistent with 6.8 so I'm marking as Wontfix. I believe this is derived from the issues with lines with/without spaces being handled differently so they may or may not end up being part of the block.
