This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Open some AWT form (e.g. Frame). Put some components into it. Save your work and close all windows. Open your form again and try to use shortcuts (e.g. Delete, Ctrl C, Ctrl V, Ctrl X). They will not work.
This happens when the last component on the form is heavyweight. It gains focus after opening the form and receives/blocks all key strokes. No component on the form should gain focus in design mode... (also bug 1854)
Priority is changed to P4 (normal).
Fixed.
