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.
Description: Current API methods for delete and paste events make it difficult to support cut and pate and copy and paste procedures, for want of a "clipboard" of some kind. For example, if user creates a listbox, and modifies the options in the default options bean, it would be nice to be able to copy the options bean's contents when the listbox is copied and pasted. However, at paste time, there is no straigtforward way for the new bean to determine which bean it was copied from. Description (Entry 2): There is a FacesDesignBean method for getting a facet, but none for setting. This makes it difficult, when one component is dropped on another, to make the dropped component a facet of the target component.
