Description kaa 2008-03-25 23:58:04 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200803231202) without GlassFish server
System: MacOS, font size 16. 

Steps:
Open New WebApp wizard.
The wizard does not resize to show err message.

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.

By default, GlassFish and Tomcat are included in the IDE (when the user installs from the installer), so this situation
will typically not happen. Changing priority to P3.

Also, when will the message in Japanese will be? Also, sounds like the workaround is to resize the dialog so it shows
the entire message, right?
