Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200809280201) Java: 1.6.0_06; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b22 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; MS932; ja_JP (nb) I'm running in Japanese locale, using a pseudo localized Netbeans with font size 16 option. 1. Open Tools -> Options -> Misc 2. Choose Versioning -> Subversion 3. Press Define button The dialog appears. It does not resize to show button labels. 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.
