[#200206110100; jdk1.4]
1. Run IDE with clean userdir
2. Run Setup Wizard(Tools->Setup Wizard)
3. Select Window mode to SDI and press Finish
4. Open Options dialog
5. Run Setup Wizard(Tools->Setup Wizard)
6. Select Window mode to MDI and press Finish
The Options dialog is now as internal frame and it is 
maximized but should be outside and not maximized.

I think WONTFIX. We have no way how to decide if window should stay
outside or be placed into MDI desktop (CENTER) during conversion from
SDI to MDI. (Window with different constraint like explorer LEFT are
placed to MDI main window and attached. Assigning to UI.
Comment 2 jrojcek 2002-07-09 10:09:07 UTC 
Request is valid. Windows should keep their type and constraints when
switching from MDI to SDI and back to MDI.

Comment 9 mslama 2002-07-24 13:58:44 UTC 
Additional attribute must be added to mode to keep frame type for both
MDI/SDI to keep correct frame type when GUI mode is changed.
Comment 10 Marian Mirilovic 2003-11-26 12:57:59 UTC 
Because Window System v1 will not be supported from now by our team, all old
winsys issues (now "core/window system v1" issues) are going to be closed as
WONTFIX. 

Changes in API which emerged both from UI spec 
and problems with adjusting to the older API are described in the document
http://core.netbeans.org/windowsystem/changes.html.
 It shows also recommends how the client code should be adjusted to the new
window system.

If you think this issue apply also to the new winsys then change the
subcomponent (to "core/window system") and REOPEN it.
Comment 11 Jaromir Uhrik 2004-02-24 13:29:28 UTC 
In NB 3.6 there is new winsys implemented and the issue doesn't appear
there - I am closing this issue.
