We know about this problem on some systems.
I'm going to rewrite wizard in next release and change layout to fix this issue.

Comment 6 Jiri Skrivanek 2013-04-08 11:31:45 UTC 
Please, fix it in 7.3.1. It has many duplicates and it is pretty visible to users. The fix should be easy enough.
Comment 7 TomasKraus 2013-04-08 12:29:19 UTC 
There is not enough space for all fields on current panel so I can't change layout to make it correct in all environments with current content.

I can get some space by removing text under Domain selection ("To select an existing domain, select its name ...") and moving those notes as bottom information line.
Comment 8 Petr Hejl 2013-04-08 12:39:33 UTC 
As I already suggested couple of months ago - if you need the fields in the wizard you should add one optional step rather then trying to put everything into one panel.

IIRC it even used to be that way.
Comment 9 TomasKraus 2013-04-08 12:43:51 UTC 
Yes and I'm still repeating what I've told here many times (also comment #2). This wizard will be completely redesigned in 7.4.
7.3.1 release cycle is here to implement Java EE 7. I was not planning changing things that were not related to Java EE 7.

(In reply to comment #9)

My (unwanted) two cents: I've been a developer for over 20 years. This is one of those very visible UI glitches which invariably colors people's opinion of a product far more than it should. This is especially true since Java's reputation isn't good when it comes to UIs--and once a product gets a "reputation", people start to look for anything validate it. Netbeans 8 isn't due out for something like six months. If it won't take too much effort, fix it now.
Comment 11 TomasKraus 2013-04-09 10:49:35 UTC 
I'm working on temporary solution tor 7.3.1 now.
