Created attachment 136681 [details] Shows the dialog with missing splitpane EXPECTED: The Formatter Options panel should be placed in a SplitPane so that the user can move resize the tree as he wants.
Thank you for the suggestion. http://hg.netbeans.org/jet-main/rev/232e00126fb0

Sorry that I have to reopen the issue. The splitpane was added. Thanks. But the content doesn't resize properly. See the screenshot. Tested in 201307222300

http://hg.netbeans.org/jet-main/rev/53309832fc9f Ok, I fixed a resizable space gap in formatting panel and fixed a few java formatting options. However I don't know what you are proposing. Components are usually fixed from left and it doesn't look good to have comboboxes on far left side and labels on right side. Comboboxes usually don't need more space, so it is not useful to resize them.

I addressed my proposals in the updated screenshot https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=137724 A brief summary: The comboboxes can have their fixed size and also the spinners/textfield can keep their absolute position/size. But all the other components like lines or tables can be resized. Elements which are aligned to the right should be anchored to the right of its outer panel. See the screenshot. I commented each of the separate widgets. I am sure I missed some of the other categories panels. But I think you already got the idea!

Thank you for clarifications. I evaluated it with current change. Already Fixed: 1. Spaces - Tree should use 100% 4. Wrapping - Tree should use 100% 5. Tabs and Indents - Fixed positions 6. Braces - Lines should resize Should be fixed 2. Blank Lines - Lines should resize 3. Imports - fix spinners, rest is already fixed.
I fixed blank lines. http://hg.netbeans.org/jet-main/rev/d7e29fa99a82 Import panel has a tricky gap layout. I will try it later.
