Description lemmingking 2009-07-03 19:05:58 UTC
When opening a big file (e.g. autogenerated antlr 260k grammar parser), which contain some errors, that netbeans can
notice and highlight, text in editor renders with terrible artefacts.
They seem to be copies of some screen areas (look at the screenshot).

Attached file is correct, but files, needed by it are not available, so netbeans reports huge amount of errors.
But one or two errors is enough to represent this bug.

Short files are displayed correctly in any case.
