Description kitfox 2009-12-08 00:49:39 UTC

I've recently upgraded to Java 7 (early access build 77) to get around an annotation bug in Java 6.  I've noticed a lot of random UI errors.  Sometimes when you double click on a java file in the project window, when it opens in the main editor you will only see a blank grey pane.  Switching between tabs will often restore the display.  Right clicking in the text editor to open the popup menu will also randomly fail, presenting a popup window with a single empty entry.

I can't find any reliable way to replicate this behavior, but it happens several times during the course of a regular programming session.

Closing now. Please reopen with more information if you see problems in recent jdk7 builds. Thanks.
