This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
The background color in the "repository" icon is hard-coded to be white instead of transparent. This makes the icon not look right when highlighted in the View menu and when using a non-white background for the MDR Explorer. Please raise the priority if you think this is important ;)
