Product Version = NetBeans IDE 3.5 RC2 (Build 200305182350) IDE Versioning = IDE/1 spec=3.42.1 impl=200305182350 Operating System = Windows 98 version 4.10 running on x86 Java; VM; Vendor = 1.4.1; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.4.1-b21; Sun Microsystems Inc. The explorer has a nice navigation feature that works like code completion but it is somewhat broken. How to reproduce: Using your cursor up and down keys to navigate an explorer tree. Type a letter and the focus is on the first node whose name begins with that letter. A small textfield at the top records your typing. Then press [Esc] so your cursor leaves that text field and can use your cursor keys to continue navigating. Expected behavior: You should be able to navigate the tree as before typing letters. Actual behavior: The vertical scrollbar moves and you have to re-focus with either [Shift+Tab] or the mouse to get back to where you were before.
