Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.1 Beta (Build 200803041230) Java: 1.6.0_03; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.6.0_03-b05 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; MS932; ja_JP Steps: 1. Create SQL Module 2. Open WSDL from Database wizard 3. Press Next button The wizard does not resize to show text label and a dropdown. Assumption is that user does not need to manually resize most windows or dialogs to see all of the UI objects and information in them. I'm running in pseudo localized locale in which each message/label is sometimes longer than in English. To account for that in some locales, translations from English (and some other euro languages) could be shown with longer strings. Also I'm running at font size 16, which is viewed as a valid font size that might be used. Resizing issues are not just related to i18n; they might show to user in English locale if they run at larger font size. Often, these issues happen because the length of some label or message or size of entire window is hardcoded vs using layout managers or other techniques or api to have the windows or the objects in them, dynamically resize. Sometimes, embedding components in a scroll pane will solve the problem.

Pls look into this.
Moving the current code to layout managers takes some time and this could not be completed with in the current time frame. Hence I request this to be waived. We should able to fix this in the next milestone.
can this be fixed for the first 6.1 patch ? (and since there are also various other issues in this module/area that we are hoping will be fixed for this patch ? if so, fix needs to be in trunk before it can go into the patch. ken.frank@sun.com
The issue hasn't be fixed till 61patch1 nomination cut-off date. Marked as release61_fixes_candidate2.

verified, trunk 0507, solaris, ja locale using pseudo localized. this could go into patch 2. ken.frank@sun.com
The fix has been ported into the release61_fixes repository. http://hg.netbeans.org/release61_fixes/rev/77afea5abf45
