dev build 200502281900 When I compile and run into compile errors, sometimes the output window gets corrupt (on the right side). I've been seeing this for at least a few months now. Please see the attached screenshot. The corruption always occurs across the exact same vertical position.

do you have any reproducible steps? what jdk do you use? I've tried hard on macosx and windows xp, but never managed to get the IDE into this state. Closing as worksforme, please reopen when you include additional information.
Sorry, no good repro steps except I just compile some code that has errors in it and I get the aforementioned output. Some clues: 1) I'm using JDK 1.5.0_01 2) The compile process is long (multiple dependencies, pages long) 3) The problem occurs randomly, but most frequently when triggering a lot of output. Maybe this is some sort of race condition?
it seems to me like a repaint problem under specific conditions. If that happens, can you try to resize the IDE or the output window? Just to see if it corrects itself or not..
