Description jhuber 2011-03-19 18:06:30 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build nbms-and-javadoc-6716-on-110224)
Operating System = Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_16
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 14.2-b01

When designing GUI (Java Swing) components, the user interface will lock up after moving or editing component properties.  For example, move/rearrange several components, then go to File menu, select Save, and program will lock up, requiring the netbeans to be killed with the Windows Task Manager.  All work since the previous save is lost.  I basically have to save after every one or two property changes/component moves to prevent loss of work.

Could you please generate thread-dump at the time of lock ?
