Description jackwoehr 2013-06-12 20:38:53 UTC

Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 (Build 201302132200)
Operating System = Mac OS X version 10.8.3 running on x86_64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_21
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.21-b01

In the Editor, when I select a J2SE class or object and try to Show Javadoc, the status bar displays the error message "Cannot perform Show Javadoc here" and Javadoc is not displayed. In Tools->Java Platforms I then deleted the URL and pointed directly to a local copy of the Javadocs and the same error occurs.

Total BS, my apologies. "Ignore this", was pointing to non-JDK classes
