Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.1.2 (Build 201204101705) Java: 1.7.0_04; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 23.0-b21 System: Mac OS X version 10.7.3 running on x86_64; US-ASCII; en_US (nb) After dragging and dropping something from Projects or Files Views or Palette in GUI designers, when you scroll the View or Palette up/down, it keeps scrolling itself back to the drag position, making it impossible to select nodes/components not visible without scrolling to them.
Release Note for NB 7.1.2 : Broken Palette after DnD to GUI designer. Workaround : restart of the IDE.
I'm not sure if this is exactly the same, but I've seen this also in Projects/Files view - behavior that I'm not able to scroll down/up..scrolling gets "settled" in the middle of the window.
The palette case above is reproducible according to Tomas. Stando, try debugging it and get details about the cause. With the details it can be filed to Java team, or workarounded probably.
The scrolling is caused by java.awt.dnd.DropTarget.DropTargetAutoScroller. That class is responsible for scrolling a tree/list when something is dragged over it. For some reason the timer isn't reset when the item is dropped or the drag is aborted. Seems like JDK bug since it works fine in other JDK versions.
I'm getting the same problem with the Projects view when running under Java:1.6.0_31; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 20.6-b01-415 It pretty much makes Netbeans unusably irritating to work with.
JDK bug filed. http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7171812
Fix should appear in upcoming b08 of 7u10. Please verify.

Can you revive the java bug? This is hitting me again. pbw$ java -version java version "1.7.0_40" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_40-b43) Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.0-b56, mixed mode) pbw$ uname -a Darwin lydia.local 12.5.0 Darwin Kernel Version 12.5.0: Sun Sep 29 13:33:47 PDT 2013; root:xnu-2050.48.12~1/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 Product Version: NetBeans IDE 7.4 (Build 201310111528) Java: 1.7.0_40; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.0-b56 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.7.0_40-b43 System: Mac OS X version 10.8.5 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) User directory: /Users/pbw/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/7.4 Cache directory: /Users/pbw/Library/Caches/NetBeans/7.4

This is particularly bad in this runtime environment: Product Version: NetBeans IDE 8.0 Beta (Build 201401141042) Java: 1.7.0_51; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.51-b03 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.7.0_51-b13 System: Mac OS X version 10.9.1 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) IT happens to me several times a day
Still shocking on Product Version = NetBeans IDE 8.0 RC1 (Build 201402242200) Operating System = Mac OS X version 10.9.1 running on x86_64 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.7.0_51 Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.51-b03
I don't know if the VERIFIED WONTFIX status means nothing more is to be done of this but it actually appears to be worse with the full IDE 8.0 release. The project window stills scrolls uncontrollably and, if reduced to less than about a third of the total visible nodes, is unable to resolve so flickers constantly at different heights. Product Version: NetBeans IDE 8.0 (Build 201403101706) Java: 1.7.0_51; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 24.51-b03 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.7.0_51-b13 System: Mac OS X version 10.9.2 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) User directory: /Users/simon/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/8.0 Cache directory: /Users/simon/Library/Caches/NetBeans/8.0
Please reopen if reproducible with JDK 1.8 The original bug was fixed in JDK 8 and then backported back to JDK 7, perhaps the backport was messed up.
You appear to be right, thanks. Upgrading Java to JDK 8 seems to have resolved the issue.
Nope, still scrolls. It's much better - it took 1.5 days to reappear but I now have to restart the browser again. Product Version: NetBeans IDE 8.0 (Build 201403101706) Java: 1.8.0_20-ea; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.20-b05 Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_20-ea-b05 System: Mac OS X version 10.9.2 running on x86_64; UTF-8; en_US (nb) User directory: /Users/simon/Library/Application Support/NetBeans/8.0 Cache directory: /Users/simon/Library/Caches/NetBeans/8.0
In fact, same setup. I have now had the same issue after dragging and dropping in the main text editor window after which the vertical scroll flickers several times a second rendering the program entirely unusable. Restating the IDE fixes.

This happens to me a lot on 8.1, so it was not "resolved".
I'm getting this a lot too with 8.2 super annoying
sorry i have a different issue
