Add platform dialog (the file chooser) is too wide. As a result, the Add platform wizard has a horizontal scrollbar on a screen with resolution 1024x768. Maybe it is caused by the additional component - Platform type + text field.
Its size is given by the standard JFileChooser component + Wizard Panel + Line. The only chance to descrease the size is either to switch off the Wizard steps list, but this is quite unacceptable, or the line, this was requirement from J2ME team. Actually the size of panel is definitely less than 1024x768. Reassigning to Adam Sotona, J2ME UI expert.
Platform type identification is our strong requirement. Combination of wizard with embedded file chooser and platform info component was best found solution. The dialog should fit even on 1024 screen without horizontal scrollbars. This is probably bug in DialogDisplayer implementation that does not allow full usage of the screen.
Horizontal scrollbars appear for new Java platform wizard on screen 1024x768 even it is not necessary.
reassigning to java, the dialog is not part of core. sorry if I chose a wrong component.

The 1st) panel of the new platform wizard has been reduced in its size to fit even on 1024x768 display.
