This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
When you take a snapshot, the name of the snapshot has an asterisk (*) next to the name to indicated it is not saved. In the current release, other file types in the IDE display the name in bold if the file is unsaved. The asterisk was used in earlier versions of the IDE to indicate an unsaved state.
