Description brettryan 2015-10-07 04:24:34 UTC 
While in full screen mode on OS X El Capitan (possibly prior) the "Add" button to add a new update centre does not show the add dialog.

1. Put NetBeans IDE in full-screen mode (click green <> button in top left).
2. Go to Tools > Plugins > Settings (tab)
3. Click "Add"

Expected outcome
----------------
Add dialog should appear

Actual outcome
--------------
Dialog is focussed but not visible, pressing [Esc]ape closes the dialog (fortunately).

Now exit full-screen mode, use the same procedure while not in full-screen mode and the dialog will appear as normal.

A suggested workaround is to instead depress ALT when maximising, this will maximise without putting the IDE into full-screen mode. This isn't ideal as the purpose of full-screen mode is to maximise realestate which this will not be able to.

Similar scenario works fine for "Add Platform..." in "Tools > Java Platforms" or "New Library..." in "Tools > Libraries". Libore, please evaluate. Thanks.
