This issue is transfered from BugTraq: http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4697341.html ------------------------------------------- Description: The screen where the user data is entered, if localized so that each label is longer in length than the English one, which is common in translations - some or all of the items in the 2nd column do not show when wizard comes up when user runs in another locale - so user needs to resize it manually. As Dave has pointed out, the netbeans wizard framework does not appear to allow this kind of coding for dynamic resizing, and thus, for Japanese localization it was found that each translated item would not be longer than English one, so there is not issue for this specific localization. But in general, for i18n, all of these type of items and windows should dynamically resize. Can you give me some details on what netbeans module might contain this code and I could file issue on that, using this registration wizard as example ? Evaluation: This is a legitimate issue that needs to be addressed for future releases. Since it doesn't have any impact on the current release I am lowering the priority to 4. A comment.

I think that current framework allows to adapt wizard's size dynamically. Wizard's size is derived from inter panel's size. The panel preferred size can by specified in panel constructor. Preferred size can be changed also by another method and a state change should be fired. I close as won't fix.
Is it closed because user of this factility (s1s registration wizard) did not use api correctly to handle dynamic resizing ? If so, I can open original bugtraq issue. ken.frank@sun.com
Ok, I agree -> closing.
