Fast open can take quite a long time, especially for the first time after IDE start. There is no progress indication at all before the document is opened in editor and the user may be wondering if the action is in progress or not. At least the hour-glass cursor must be used.
Dusan is looking into that.

Still not good from UI responsiveness point of view. The hour-glass cursor is displayed only in the editor pane after it is opened. Given the fact that we cannot display global hour-glass cursor, let's add a message to the global Status Line. IMHO the message could be "Opening class $CLASSNAME..." and it should be deleted from the Status Line after the opening finishes.
Fixed in [maintrunk] as suggested. Checking in Bundle.properties; /cvs/editor/src/org/netbeans/modules/editor/java/Bundle.properties,v <-- Bundle.properties new revision: 1.74; previous revision: 1.73 done Checking in JMIUtils.java; /cvs/editor/src/org/netbeans/modules/editor/java/JMIUtils.java,v <-- JMIUtils.java new revision: 1.49; previous revision: 1.48 done
Looks better. Thanks.
