Could you,please, use Oracle's JDK instead of OpenJDK and run NB with --laf Metal. Do you have the problem in this case? I think I saw this bug if display has extremely low resolution.

I tried to install Oracle JDK yesterday, but I failed since I could't add the WebUpd8 PPA source. I will try this again today. BTW, I heard that Oracle JDK is difficult to update or uninstall in Debian or Ubuntu. Is this right?

I would recommend. Because OpenJDK has a lot of known issue with GUI part. > I tried to install Oracle JDK yesterday, but I failed since > I could't add the WebUpd8 PPA source.

This problem exists if you uses display with low resolution. Bug can be reproduced with Java projects (really it is not a c++ related bug). In NetBeans 8.0 or 8.1, with Oracle Java and OpenJDK.

I have installed the latest 8.1 IDE. The description in download page says, "HTML/JS, PHP and C/C++ NetBeans bundles include Java Runtime Environment and do not require a separate Java installation." So, I don't think I should install Oracle JDK separately. However, this bug still exists. Reassign to evaluation. I tested this with the latest JDK 8 up 92, Ubuntu 14.04, Gnome and the last menu item is clickable without problems for me. Maybe this was fixed in Java already? Can you please verify the behavior with dev builds of NB 8.2 and JDK 8? |
Created attachment 157102 [details] screenshot of problem Netbeans: 8.1beta, 8.1RC1, 8.1RC2 OS: Debian 8.1 Java: OpenJdk 7 In Project explorer, if I right click a project and navigate the context menu, the menu is so long that I can't highlight "Properties" and click it. However, if I choose full-screen mode of IDE, I can click the "Properties".
