Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.5 RC2 (Build 200810231029) 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. Create EJB Module 2. Add Entity Class 3. Open wizard: Session Bean for Entity Class 4. Go to the step 3 of the wizard The wizard doesn't resize to show a message. See image. 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

This wizard is from the persistence area. Reassign.
this line contain list with classes which will be generated by wizard, class names can be almost any length. as I see in other wizards even in en local and default font size text fields do not expand to cover full path to file etc. in my opinion this text field shouldn't expand automatically also you can either scroll content with mouse or resize the wizard manually. feel free to reopen if there is any good approach for such cases or I miss something.
