Description eadams 2001-09-01 21:56:05 UTC 
Using the explorer drill into a java file until you find Fields.  Right-click to 
and choose Add Fields .. and you get the Edit New Field dialog.

The drop-down list for Type has 9 elements in it and and 8 are shown,
therefore, it has a vertical scroll bar.  It would be better to show all
9 entries and make the scroll bar go away.

Sorry, there's not much we can do about that. The general IDE policy 
is to display at most 8 items in the list without a scrollbar; this 
property is in no more special than any other one.

Jano, is there something we can do just for this one property 
(except that we implement our own display for the property editor 
instead of using getTags()) ?
Comment 2 Svata Dedic 2001-09-14 16:51:34 UTC 
UI has agreed on this -- the combobox size conforms to the IDE 
general policy.
