In the ColorSwitch tutorial, "Adding a Label and Setting Its Properties" you ask the novice to set the opaque property. In the point 4 is written: Scroll to the opaque property in the Properties pane. It is necessary to change to: Scroll to the opaque property in the Expert pane. Not serious, but a bit confusing for a Forte beginner.
This bug is a result of different UI between FFJ and NetBeans. Shortly after the FFJ-2 (Boston) branch was established, the Expert properties tab was renamed to Other Properties. So the bug exists only FFJ 2.0; the docs are correct in NetBeans.
