Description dudy 2009-01-27 13:30:22 UTC
I'm working on a project and problem occures that's quite similar to a problem I encountered in a previous project. I copy&paste 
my working code (say, a hundered lines) from the old project into the actual one. Of course everything is screwed up now. But I 
just have to adjust some variable names, add some catches, import some classes and initialize some states to make my old code 
ready for the new project. Easy going. But ... NetBeans is permanently "Refreshing workspace ...", "Scanning projects ..." and 
marking my (not yet adjusted) copied-in code red.

Suggestion: when I compile a project, the status bar shows a progress bar with a cancel button at the right side (lower right 
edge of NB). It would be nice if there was a checkbox "disable" when "Refreshing workspace ..." occurs so to stop NB refreshing 
and wait till I reenable it after my code adjustments have been done.
