The test case below executed with JDK 1.6 update 26, 27 and 29, JDK 1.7 and update 1 on GNOME desktop. "uname -a" output: Linux cmlinuxdesk 2.6.35.14-100.fc14.i686.PAE #1 SMP Fri Oct 21 18:56:36 UTC 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Test case: 1. Edit etc/nectbeans.conf file and change netbeans_jdkhome line for NetBeans JDK 7 (e.g. netbans_jdkhome="/opt/jdk1.7.0_01") 2. Open NetBeans 7.0.1 3. Minimize any window (e.g. Output, Tasks or Navigator) 4. Open minimized window then try to resize 5. Resize cursor doesn't appear, so can't resize window 6. Close Netbeans and edit etc/netbeans.conf file and change it so NetBeans can run with JDK 6 (in my platform netbeans_jdkhome="/opt/jdk1.6.0_29") 7. Open Netbeans 8. Try execute 3 and 4 9. Voila! it works.
i have reproduced the problem also on ms windows. when mouse cursor hovers over a minimized window, the window slides in and then it isn't possible to resize it. however if i click the minimized window first then resizing works fine. isn't that the same issue in your case as well?
i've changed the logic to hide minimized window when mouse is clicked. please reopen if still reproducible in recent builds. core-main 1c35ea82a185
Resizing doesn't work in my case by cursor hover or click, resizing cursor doesn't appear as well.
(In reply to comment #3) > Resizing doesn't work in my case by cursor hover or click, resizing cursor > doesn't appear as well. ok, it's a different issue then
