This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
To recreate: 1) Maximise the main window and leave it open (i.e. not minimise it). 2) Change desktop then go back to the desktop with Netbeans on it. 3) The window has been unmaximised. This only happens if the window is still open, and is unaffected by other windows being open. This does not happen all the time, only after Netbeans has been open for a while. If I leave it alone for 5 min, it seems to sort itself out. It only seems to affect Netbeans which is why I'm bugging this here. I am running Metacity. What other information could I provide?
Well, I am running NB on Linux daily (with Metacity) but I didn't meet this. > What other information could I provide? 1. Post the information from Help>About here, so that we can see an exact OS, JDK and NB version. 2. Do you use compiz? There are some settings for Window Management. 3. Do another Java application suffer with this issue? Try notepad demo (Ubuntu command): sudo apt-get install sun-java6-demo; java -jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar
Thanks for the quick reply. I have Compiz installed but I don't use it. I tried running the command but got the following error. Sorry in advance for my ignorance. Either way, NB isn't doing it now so I'll try running another application next time it happens. java -jar /usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/demo/jfc/Notepad/Notepad.jar Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: Bad version number in .class file at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass1(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.defineClass(ClassLoader.java:620)...

Reassigning to platform.
It happened yesterday. I had OpenOffice open but that wasn't affected - not sure if that falls under the Java application category. Are there any log files I could submit?
