Description Alexander Pepin 2007-09-13 13:31:28 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
- create any sample project
- open source file in the editor
- call New Breakpoint from the Run menu
- choose Function breakpoint type
- change type to Line breakpoint
Result: The dialog window width changes. It looks ridiculous so these dialogs are similar.

Try doing the same thing with Java breakpoints. The same resizing happens then.
As far as I know, no customers have had issue with the size changes.
Comment 2 Alexander Pepin 2007-09-13 17:27:33 UTC
In fact not. Please notice that it happens only in IDE + CND (without Java and Java Debugger). If Java and Java Debugger
also installed then only height of the dialog is changed (that's OK so that dialog contains different number of fields
for different types) but width remains the same.
Comment 3 _ gordonp 2007-09-14 01:38:01 UTC
I tried this on Windows (both Java and C/C++) and on Solaris (Java only).

On Windows only the height changed. If I switched from Java to C/C++ there was a minor
width change. But changing from C/C++ Line to C/C++ Function only changed height.

On Solaris, both height and width changed when changing Java types (Class, Exception,
Method, Thread, and Field).
Comment 4 Alexander Pepin 2007-09-14 09:48:04 UTC
Please pay your attention that I'm not talking about switching between Java and C++. I mean completely different
installations of the product. As you know for now a user can choose different types of installation from netbeans site
http://bits.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.0/nightly/latest/
so you can install only Base IDE with C/C++ and without Java. And the issue regards exactly this variant. The dialog
width changes terrifically on Linux and Solaris. I suspect that there is something bad with setting of the window size.
It looks that the size (width) depends on dialog fields content.
