Description _ ttran 2002-08-16 21:49:34 UTC 
The current behaviour and implementation of the
window system in NetBeans have many usability
issues.  For NB 4.0 we should choose and try to
solve some of them and lay the ground for further
improvements in post 4.0 releases.
Comment 1 Marian Mirilovic 2003-11-26 12:57:02 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.

issue doesn't apply to new window system - verified
