Description bartolomeo 2007-04-27 16:06:29 UTC

I made a simple GUI frondend according a tutorial from the official Netbeans site
(I am very beginner with java). I discovered that every time I change literally
anytything to the project e.g. resize the JFrame window and then --> build the
project again the error occurs.

I will try to enclose the project in a zip file.

The attached form is corrupted - a result of a known bug in 5.0 (already fixed in 5.5). 6.0 corrects the form
automatically, so it opens without problem, but still can't add a new textfield at the unoccupied position in the upper
panel - exception. This should be investigated and fixed.

Comment 3 Jan Stola 2008-01-24 14:26:35 UTC

The form can be opened/modified by now. The exception mentioned by tpavek is covered by issue 82264.
