[ BUILD # : eb8d22d7ddd4 ] [ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ] Some combo boxes in Options dialog looks really weird for GTK LAF as all in 'Font & Collors' and Editor > Mark Occurrences. I will attach some sample where the combo boxes are really weird for GTK LAF and of course an image with a correct one. It probably is caused because many developers resize the components for fixed sizes, and should I say it is a bad behaviour when we are talking about a project which should run consistently in many OS and LAFs. Well, if I need to broke this is many issues, just let me know since probably it will involve some modules.
Created attachment 96532 [details] The firt weird sample
Created attachment 96533 [details] The second weird sample
Created attachment 96534 [details] An correct sample
The first sample, the language combo box is incorrect and for the second one pay attention for Background combo box. In the second sample, all tabs have bad combos :( The third sample is an correct combo box for Verbosity Level.
Isn't it JDK specific bug?
It could be but I am not sure yet. I looked at org.netbeans.modules.options.editor.completion.CodeCompletionOptionsPanel at options.editor module and the problem is the custom cell render. I will try more tweaks soon and reply you if it could be fixed here or not. Since it is a minor issue the time is not a big problem :)
I think that the issue is the custom renderers. This cannot be controlled by options.api. Please file seperate issues to each case that is affected. Thank you for reporting
