With the past versions I noticed some versions reacted to ctrl-shift-i and some didn't. 6.9 final unfortunately doesn't any more. While the versions before did. Trying to assign the key again in the shortcuts doesn't work. "CTRL-SHIFT-" appears but the final "I" doesn't. For some reason this shortcut can't be assigned. Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.9 (Build 201006101454) Java: 1.6.0_20; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 16.3-b01 System: Linux version 2.6.32-22-generic running on amd64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Userdir: /home/jan/.netbeans/6.9 Running on Kubuntu 10.04 (KDE4).
It works fine on ubuntu 9.10. Could you please attach messages.log?

It did work indeed with 9.10. At some time before that it didn't work either. But whether that was an earlier release of netbeans or kubuntu ? it's included.
Since this morning ctrl-shift-i is working again. As far as I know nothing was updated since I logged this ticket. Not Netbeans, Linux or Java. That's weird...
Seems like a problem caused by kde4 global shortcuts framework. For instance Kopete uses this shortcut for incoming messages and when it is running it 'steals' this shortcut from other applications. Please check $KDEHOME/.kde/share/config/kglobalshortcutsrc where the kdedglobalaccel daemon should store its data.
You're absolutely right !!! Kopete was running yesterday but not today. When it is running ctrl/shift/i doesn't work any more. It works again when kopete is closed. Selecting "none" in the system settings (see screenshot) solves the problem. So, it's really nothing about Netbeans. I should have thought about that... :-) Is there a way to display in Netbeans the shortcut is already reserved ?

OK - closing as INVALID.
