Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.0 Beta (Build 201011152355) Operating System = Windows 7 version 6.1 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_21 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 17.0-b17 When netbeans is notified of a change of a file that is currently open or within the scope of the project trees, the whole tree collapses. This is quite annoying, because one has to reopen the project filetree to the prefered directories. The tree should maintain the status it is in, and changed should be made only to those directories or files affected.
I guess this is as design, at least I see the same behaviour if you run Refactoring (so any change in a tree invokes collapse) ... so reassign for evaluation ?
You can use Ctrl-Shift-1 in editor to get the selection back. Anyway, the collapsing shall not happen. If I find a way to simulate it, I fix it.
