API JavaDoc says "The column selection corner can use either dialog or popup menu". But even if set to 'true', clicking the corner button still opens a dialog instead of requested popup menu. It turns out that the popup menu is only displayed for right mouse click. Expected behavior: calling ETable.setPopupUsedFromTheCorner(true) should ensure that the column selection will always be displayed as popup menu.
For some strange reason the dialog/popup invocation was changed by http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/a59d74214b60
Fixed by changeset: 194350:1ddde2853a03 http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/1ddde2853a03 And merged into 7.0.1: http://hg.netbeans.org/releases/rev/66bf17b46a8c
Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201105210400* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/1ddde2853a03 User: mentlicher@netbeans.org Log: #198671 The column selection dialog/popup menu invocation is corrected and made more transparent. Right mouse button always displays popup menu and left mouse button behavior is determined by ETable.isPopupUsedFromTheCorner().
