Probably better fixed by reducing the cases where the classpath items are not all displayed at once, e.g. by making the right pane larger relative to the left. Or, perhaps best, display simple JAR names in the list, and add a r/o text field beneath them showing the complete path for reference. Showing only simple names and add an tooltip with the complete path sounds good. Jano, should we change it? FWIW I recommend a r/o text field over a tooltip because - works with KB (tooltips generally don't, or it's too hard) - you can take your time looking at the path; no need to move mouse again after a couple of seconds - you can copy & paste the path - more discoverable I suggest to use a simple list of JARs with folders in parentheses. Parentheses and folder names would be in gray color: 1.jar (/a) 1.jar (/a/b/c) 2.jar (/a/b/c) This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue. Thanks for your cooperation, NetBeans IDE 8.2 Release Boss |
