Description Milos Kleint 2002-04-29 09:54:02 UTC 
using dev build from 29/April/2002, Win2000.

I get doubled scrollbars when invoking Ant
Settings/Properties custom property editor.
Besides being ugly, one has to use both the
scrollbarsi n order to scroll all the way to the
end of line.

Looks like problem of property editor.
Comment 3 akemr 2002-04-29 16:48:00 UTC 
Hmm, I didn't change scrolling in custom property editor.
In NB 3.3.1 it works.

CCing Properties module - does something change in properties
editor??

[Milos please don't use JPEG for screenshots...GIF or PNG is non-lossy.]

Trung I would guess this is a regression triggered by issue #20570.
Comment 5 akemr 2002-04-30 10:02:56 UTC 
I also think it's caused by #20570, so reassigning to Trung.

I'll attach patch/hack to NbPresenter which works fine for
Properties custom editor.

Yuck, that's evil-looking.

Maybe the patch for issue #20570 should just be backed out. The
original problem was *not* with random special components displayed in
dialogs, which generally already use JScrollPane if it makes sense.
The problem was with message panes where the displayed object is a
String, and a GUI component is generated for you - with no scrolling
ability. However JOptionPane is used to display the messages, not
NbPresenter directly. Maybe #20570 should just be WONTFIX and anyone
displaying a long text message should just be responsible for
reformatting it into a GUI component with a decent layout.
Comment 8 _ ttran 2002-05-07 09:35:24 UTC 
Okay, I take a safer route.  JScrollPane will be inserted in between
only if the _minimumSize_ is larger than the screen not the
_preferredSize_ as it is now.  This is only a safeguard to make sure
we don't display dialogs larger than the screen.  Each dialog must
still be properly designed to take the limited screen size into
consideration.

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
