Description eskild 2007-07-18 14:07:12 UTC
6.0M10 on SuSE 10.0 with Sun JDK 1.5.0_12:

I have a C++ project built from existing sources. If I try to open Project Properties on the project or any
sub-component thereof, the Properties dialog appears with the treeview on the left; it displays normally. However, when
I click something from the tree view, the properties pane on the right always shows "<No Properties>".

If I alternately click on two items in the left-hand tree view, I can see the properties flash visible, immediately to
be obscured by the "<No Properties>" pane.

Needless to say, this is a major inconvenience.

Can you look in your userdir and see if there are any exceptions or any indication that
something unexpected is going on?

We're only marginally focused on 6.0 right now (but we do expect it to work:-)

This is from var/log/messages, but it doesn't seem related:

If I were to make an uneducated guess, I suspect you have a specific "panel", or whatever the proper Swing term is, that
you expose if you don't have any properties to show; and another when there *are* properties. Maybe they're just layered
and you simply choose which one to make visible at runtime, depending on the tree view.

If I'm somewhat right, then it looks like "No Props" panel is always exposed on top of the other panel. There could be
any number of reasons for that, but, hey, you're the expert!  ;-)

Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.

Thanks!
