New code folding was introduced by
http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=226413

EXPECTED:
The labels for options "content preview", "show summary" should be more concise. Even the group panel should be renamed. I had guess its effects, so please choose better labels.

For example:

---Display options for collapsed folds--------------------------
[X] Content preview (f.e. shows first line of documentation)
[X] Show number of collapsed lines
----------------------------------------------------------------
Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2013-03-17 06:56:24 UTC 
I'd prefer to keep the option text short. Some more options may be introduced (e.g. 'Minimum lines to fold: [n]') and I'll need the visual space for 2nd column.

What about 'Show number of lines', 'Preview folded text' ? Especially the 'preview' is language & tag dependent (though now it is used only in perldoc, and HTML tags), I would like to keep the wording abstract. More wordy explanation should imho go to the documentation.

This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
