Description Vladimir Voskresensky 2010-03-10 07:44:36 UTC 
IDE recently have lost functionality to make Diff when two files are selected in Project/Files/Favorites views
previously there was Tools->Diff
Comment 1 Ondrej Vrabec 2010-03-10 08:57:29 UTC 
Can't reproduce in today build (cdev 20100310), see the attached screenshot. What exactly does 'recently' mean? When you file a P2 bug, could you please provide at least the build number you're currently using. I think i suffered the same issue at the beginning of the week, but rebuilding the IDE helped.

I'm sorry for not giving enough info:
NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 100310-c745a30f86ee)

Issue is with context menu in Files/Favorites windows.
Previously when I selected two files in any view => I saw Tools->Diff
now there are no "Tools" submenu anymore when *two files* are selected
Comment 4 Ondrej Vrabec 2010-03-10 10:41:30 UTC 
ToolsAction: but it should be fixed in jarda's #794925f4d016
Comment 5 Jaroslav Tulach 2010-03-10 10:48:52 UTC 
If it is, then this is duplicate of bug 181392.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 181392 ***
Comment 6 Vladimir Voskresensky 2010-03-10 11:09:25 UTC 
I don't think this is dup of bug 181392.
(because I've faced 181392 as well, but now I have Tools in context menu, but talking with issue about multiple selections)

http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/794925f4d016
is already in cnd-main => I will verify tomorrow
Comment 7 Vladimir Voskresensky 2010-03-10 11:16:14 UTC 
I have checked with 6.8 and current self-made trunk version
When we had multiple selection => we had 
Tools->
       Add to Favorites
       -----------------
       Diff

Now we don't have Tools submenu anymore in Files/Favorites
but it is available in Java projects view (but not available for C++ projects anymore)
Comment 8 Ondrej Vrabec 2010-03-10 11:31:17 UTC 
It seems it's dependent on the kind of nodes you select in Fav/Files view. The submenu is displayed when one of the nodes is a java file, but when both nodes are e.g. text files, the Tools submenu does not appear.
Reassigning for further evaluation.
Comment 9 Jaroslav Tulach 2010-03-22 13:26:15 UTC 
OK, two .html files don't have Tools submenu in popup menu at all.
Comment 10 Vladimir Voskresensky 2010-03-22 13:31:34 UTC 
any two files don't have Tools submenu in popup menu at all.
exept the case when one of files if *.java file :-)
