In NB7.3, I selected the "New Window" wizard, selected "editor" as the output type, entered a class prefix and pressed Finish. The wizard dialog stopped responding but the progress bar was still moving. Attemptiny to close the window or netbeans does not work. I had to kill the Java process for Netbeans. The IDE log file does not show any unusual messages. Both java and form files were created, BUT the form file was empty. On restart, the editor would not open the form due to this. I managed to work around it by copying the contents of the .form file from another form.
Apparently this happens when I create the second Window within a module.
