The order in this submenu is not alphabetical and it's not (at least to me) most used first.... This should be examined and corrected. Note that it may require issue 18829 to be fixed.
Handled in core and VCS, actually. 18829 would be helpful though the ordering can be done manually too.
*** Issue 14187 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
Issue #14187 is not in contridiction with this issue. Both agree on the order the submenu should be listed in (which happens to be alphabetical in this case).
UI: Please look also at the #14187, and specify which order should be kept: 1) alphabetical and in that case it depends on the #18829, 2) declarative (it doesn't matter if it could match 1) accidentally) (and which exact order in this case #14187?), and then we will fix it.
Change order to: Local Directory Archive File Version Control Local Filesystem is mounted most frequently and filesystem items (Local Dir, Archives) should be displayed grouped together before folders of filesystems (Version Control).
placement of "Version Control" is set in vcscore's xml layer. The relative order of "Local Directory" and "Archive Files" are already set in core's layer.
fixed in vcscore layer
Verified in development build #200207030100 of NetBeans 3.4.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
