Create a new JPanel form.

Drop any component on it (eg JComboBox).

Change the layout to AbsoluteLayout, and the form then shows an error line in code added by Netbeans:

Package org.netbeans.lib.awtextra does not exist. 

The AbsoluteLayout library has been added to the project.

The project works fully on two other machines. It has been copied across to a new replacement machine that has Windows 10 installed. Old machine runs Windows 8.1
