Hi, fellow NetBeans devs.

 

I have slowly been adding SVG versions of the various icons in the NetBeans UI, 
to make NetBeans look better on HiDPI screens (including all Macs). See e.g. 
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/pull/8083 .

 

Now I'm going through the menu bars and toolbars, and have some questions about 
specific actions that I'm not familiar with.

 

1) Debug toolbar: "Toggle Pause in GraalVM script". Is this action frequently 
enough used to warrant a separate 24x24 icon in the toolbar? Or could it be 
moved to the "Debug" menu instead, perhaps omitting the icon?

 

2) Performance toolbar: "Run-time Watches". What does this feature do? How is 
it different from the Window->Debugging->Watches action? (They open different 
sidebars.)

 

3) Run->Reload: Why does the current icon have the Payara logo on it? Is this 
action actually something Payara-specific?

 

4) Run->Open Java Shell for Main Project: I can't get this action to become 
enabled. How is it supposed to work?

 

5) Edit->Reset Java Shell. Is this related to "Open Java Shell for Main 
Project"? Should the two actions be moved together in the "Run" menu?

 

 

Thanks for your insights!
