Description orgil37 2009-03-11 16:59:16 UTC
The following is my environment;
Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 (Build 200811100001)
Java: 1.5.0_16; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_16-b02
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)

This is a visual JSF project using Woodstock components. There are  both visual and non-visual JSF pages in the 
project. Upon entry to Netbeans, the Navigator pane works for non-visual jsp/jsf pages, included class files, and the 
backing bean java files. It does not work for visual JSF jsp pages or in the design view.

There are 2 critical issues her;
1) Navigator pane does not work in visual design view. This is critical as it is needed to update components. Without 
this working I may as well use Notepad since I am relegated to editing the code.
2) After entering Design view on a visual page, the Navigator pane remains empty after that regardless of what view I 
am in or what type of file is current. The only way to re-activate is to bounce Netbeans.

Please note - The Design view renders properly with no errors reported.

The steps to reproduce;
1) Open Netbeans with a java or class file current to show navigator pane working.
2) Select a visual jsf page and click on Design view. The Navigator pane is empty after that.

I do have scren shots saved of this and are available upon request.
