Development 200606210200 of NetBeans 5.5 JDK 1.5.0_08, VM b02 Description: ============ Create project with jFrame. Put e.g. jTextField in jFrame. Set focus on jTextField and then try to initiate popup menu in inspector window as you can see on attachment. There are highlighted possibilities which are not applicable for the jFrame - anchor, auto resizing ... It could be confusing. This also happend if you do it vice versa. That means you set focus on jFrame in inspector window and do rightmouseclick on jTextField in design area. In popup menu there aren't such possibilities as could be.

The issue is not reproducible in NB6.1, the focus seems to work well. Closing as WORKSFORME now, feel free to reopen it if the issue still persists.
