This usability problem has been part of Netbeans ever since I can
remember (at least 3-4 years). I always ascribed it to me just not
being accurate enough or not knowing the "trick" (or maybe I was just
too lazy to file a bug :-} Anyway, since the problem existed for so
long, I figured there probably already is a bug for it. A quick search
revealed at least two:
From 2007:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=100458 From 2008:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=140449possibly this one from 2009:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=156257None of these have votes on them. I just added mine to the first one -
if others think this should be fixed, please add your vote to the first
one as well.
