Description gars 2008-11-12 20:02:58 UTC
1) Starting with IDE window maximized, menu options and mouse pointer don't work fine when window is changed to
not-maximized.

a) With normal window (not maximized), try to select menu File, option Open or some other. The menu list disapear as
soon as mouse button is released. It occurs in every menu.

b) Still with normal window, try to select some menu, such as Window, and when select some option like Versioning...

2) Now close the IDE in normal window mode and then start it again. The opposite behaviour of item 1 (above) is
happening when the IDE window is maximized.

Comment 2 Lukas Hasik 2008-11-20 16:05:56 UTC
could specify "misbehavior", please?
What is your OS, JDK, NB build?
Comment 3 Lukas Hasik 2008-12-04 12:31:25 UTC

Answering what was asked ("What is your OS, JDK, NB build?"): 
NetBeans IDE 6.5: (Build 200811100001)
Java: 1.5.0_14; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_14-b03
OS: Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-686-bigmem #1 SMP Tue Dec 2 08:50:08 UTC 2008, runing on  i686 processor.
Locale: UTF-8; pt_BR (nb)

With misbehaviour I mean mouse and menu not functioning as expected. In other words, mouse pointer, mouse click on menus
and menu-options.

To simulate: Start NB IDE and maximize the IDE window (not full screen). Close NB. Restart NB. Change window size from
maximized to not maximized (normal window - eg: if your screen is 1024x768, change manually to some size bellow, like
800x600). Now try to point to any menu and you will see what is happening (described on oppening issue text). With the
inverse operation it is the same.

I'm not able to reproduce on WinXp. Will try later on Ubuntu.

I think I have the same problem with Netbeans 7.2 on Linux Mint, with a multi-monitor setup (which should be quite common for developers). You can see the bug in the second half of this video (the first part cover sth different):
