Description allanNB 2016-04-06 15:26:18 UTC
Product Version = NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201603210001)
Operating System = Linux version 3.19.0-56-generic running on amd64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.8.0_74
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.74-b02

Reproducibility: Haven't tried to reproduce it

STEPS:
  * use a keyboard (or a laptop) with a numpad
   * turn numlock on, so you can use the numpad to enter only numbers
   * open NetBeans
   * use the IDE for some time, then try to push 0 on the numpad (this is also the Insert key when the Numlock is Off)

ACTUAL:
  the editor goes into Insert mode as if I just pressed the Insert button. Numlock seems to be set to Off inside NetBeans
I need to push the Numlock key again for it to work as expected

EXPECTED:
   numbers appear in the editor when I press the numpad, when Numlock is On in my OS

I am sorry, but I cannot reproduce this issue. I am also using linux and numpad and I have never encountered such issue. Can you please find reproducible steps? I am making this P3 - you are the only one reporting this issue, without reproducible steps.

seems to be fixed as of 8.2
