When a debug session come up and debug buttons shown in tool bar, "quick search" will cover partial debug buttons, for my case in dbxgui, debug buttons only shown up to stepover, others are covered by "quick search"
I got nb6.5 from Thomas' download for ceres SSIDE, and here is the version info that I got from IDE help, I guess it is 20080902 build. Product Version: Sun Studio (Build 200809021401, Sun Studio 20080610) Java: 1.5.0_07; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_07-b03 System: SunOS version 5.10 running on x86; ISO646-US; en (sunstudio) Userdir: /net/benjamin2/export/ws/jeanko/dinstall/ideuserdir

Reassigning to cnd for further evaluation.
> Reassigning to cnd for further evaluation. Why did you reassign to cnd? The quick search window has nothing to do with cnd. Its a *standard* netbeans 6.5 window from the module spi.quicksearch. If you look in nbbuild/cluster.properties, its part of nb.cluster.platform. IMHO it works as expected. If your size your main window small enough that not all toolbars fit, the right-most typically wins. I don't know if this is a netbeans decision, a l&f decision, or a standard UI behavior. Perhaps a UI designer (XDesign) should evaluate this issue. But its definitely *not* a cnd issue.
There was also debugger toolbar mentioned. So I thought that cnd debugger is also involved.
There are several button areas within toolbar, if user decide to turn on all areas of toolbar, and the window size is not enough to show them all, then the right most area should wrap to next line. Play with "View" menu to turn on/off button areas, it seems everyone follow this rule except "quick search", only "quick search" overlap others, "debugger" is not an issue, "debugger" is just lucky that it's next to "quick search". This is a very basic UI common sense. I don't think we need HIE to decide who is winning.
This looks like a bug in toolbar layout. I found that as one narrows the main IDE window more and more the quick-search toolbar will cover first the debugger toolbar, then the debugger toolbar, belatedly, moves to the second line and then it's the build toolbars turn to get covered. Note that the quick-search toolbar is layed out in a right justified fashion. Is this right justification a new thing? It looks like it's not very well integrated with toolbar wrapping.
Reassigning to ui.
