Description mienamoo 2012-10-01 11:14:24 UTC 
NetBeans IDE 7.3 Beta (Build 201209272333)
JDK 7u7 64-bit

When applying the "Replace with multicatch", you end up with a lot of unnecessary spaces. For example (LAF name removed for readability):

try {
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel("");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException ex) {
    Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
} catch (InstantiationException ex) {
    Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
} catch (IllegalAccessException ex) {
    Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
} catch (UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
    Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
}

is transformed into

try {
    UIManager.setLookAndFeel("");
} catch (            ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {
    Exceptions.printStackTrace(ex);
}

Note the spaces after catch (. The number of spaces appear to be independent of the number of exceptions. Nothing a quick code format can't fix, but it is still annoying.

reproducible.

This happens when the try-catch is located deeper in the block (e.g. it is not directly in class method)

Sample code:

       if (true) {
            if (true) {
                try {
                    m();
                } catch (FileNotFoundException exception) {
                    Logger.getLogger(ClassB.class.getCanonicalName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "", exception);
                } catch (MalformedURLException exception) {
                    Logger.getLogger(ClassB.class.getCanonicalName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "", exception);
                }
            }
        }
