Description Petr Somol 2013-06-28 08:32:27 UTC 
In NB7.4 the possibility to define custom manifest attributes in JavaFX JAR file manifests has been added. The UI can however be felt misleading by some because it states "Manifest Entries" meaning in fact custom attributes (FX terminology) or headers (Java Tutorial terminology) and their values. The inscriptions should better be changed to prevent confusion.
