Did you mean the external Darcula LAF plugin, or the new bundled FlatLAF Dark? I can test either. Now curious how they implemented full-row selection. The thing with Windows Explorer and other apps that use the full-row behavior, is that the root-level context menu usually just provides shortcuts to actions that are available elsewhere (in the menu bar or in the context menu for individual nodes). So it's just an added convenience for cases where the user has nothing else to click, e.g. before creating a project. But in NetBeans, the "Projects" pane has a few actions which I'm not sure can be accessed in other ways, e.g. "Collapse All" or the "View Java Packages As" option. And if the root context menu has traditionally been easy to access, some people will get used to it over time. > Note that there was not an argument about the left-click (selection) behaviour OK, so perhaps this one should still select the whole row. There's also the behavior when dragging and dropping a node on another node. Here I think it's also good to have the whole row work--I don't think the root node is ever relevant here. > A minimum width for the area active for a node right-click, in case the node's text itself is too narrow - expressed in 'eM's ? I'll experiment with this, and see if there's an approach that feels natural. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
