Created attachment 103283 [details] Enlarged popup menu in editor I'm not sure where specifically this belongs to, I'm not sure of this is JDK bug or NetBeans bug. See the screenshots. Sometimes popup menus are displayed with enlarged or shrunk items.
Created attachment 103284 [details] Enlarged submenu
Created attachment 103285 [details] Enlarged popup menus in the context of the IDE.
how do i reproduce this? what are jdk and nb versions? is this linux only?
Created attachment 103286 [details] Enlarged menu with an ordinary menu for comparison
Created attachment 103287 [details] Shrunk menu
Created attachment 103288 [details] Shrunk top-level sub-menu
It occurs just randomly to me. :-( But when it occurs somewhere it's likely to occur in several other menus as well. Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 101112-828401e30f74) Java: 1.7.0-ea; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 19.0-b05 System: Linux version 2.6.22-14-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb)
It has happened several times for me already.
Created attachment 103289 [details] It eventually makes the menu barely usable. Using javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel if that matters. Seems to occur randomly. :-(
is this reproducible with jdk 1.6?
It looks like it's not reproducible on JDK 6. On JDK 7 it seems to occur soon after I run some action from the menu (e.g. Help -> About) and then I'm opening popup menus that goes partly off the main IDE window. After a while it starts to screw up.
lowering priority to P3 since it seems to work fine on jdk 1.6
please reopen if still reproducible with the latest jdk 7 update, thanks
