Description Andrei Badea 2007-06-28 16:59:50 UTC

I just can't get used to the order of the New Project and Open Project icons in the main menu. In basically every
application I have used the New action is first and Open is the second. Changing the order to (Open, New) might make
sense theoretically, but it makes NetBeans behave differently than most applications out there.

Any comment from HIE?

Comment 2 jrojcek 2007-07-09 16:52:27 UTC

In today's build the new project action is the very first item in the File menu. In any case, the correct order of menu items is defined in the following spec:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/MainMenu

I noticed that the ordering is really wrong in the main *toolbar*, where  open action is the first one. This is a bug. The correct order is defined at:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/wiki/view/MainToolbar

Sorry, I meant the main toolbar. I guess these are project actions, so reassigning there.
