### Apache NetBeans version Apache NetBeans 27 ### What happened Running the NetBeans IDE from the uncompressed official zip package does not save and/or restore some settings. The OS is Linux Mint 22.1 Cinammon. The zip is extracted in /opt and a custom .desktop file provided to run it. It is run as a normal user, so it stores it's settings in the user Home. The same was observed, but not reported, in NetBeans 24 IDE zip package. This did not happen with the earlier oficial .deb packages. Some settings that have been confirmed as failing to restore are: - Splitter position for the vertical splitter between 'Projects' and 'Editor' panels. Happens on every restart of the IDE. - Activated state of the JavaFX plugin (Scene Builder integration). Happens after a few restarts of the IDE (sorry, have been able to exactly count them). Other settings may be impacted and not observed yet. I have moved to using the zip distribution since NB 24 after the earlier issue reported with the installer bundled with JDK, where it would loose the dependency to loaded library projects and change to a dependency on the built jars of said library projects. ### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component JavaFX maven project, Zulu JDK 21 LTS (deb). ### How to reproduce - Vertical splitter position: Start the Netbeans IDE. Load some projects. Change the splitter position to your liking. Close the IDE. Start the IDE. - Activated state of the JavaFX plugin: Start the Netbeans IDE. Load a javaFX project with fxml files. Activate the JavaFX plugin. Configure path to Scene Builder. Close the IDE. Start the IDE. Open an fxml file by double-clicking or right-click, 'Open'. (repeat last 3 a few times until opening an fxml file opens in the NB editor window). ### Did this work correctly in an earlier version? Apache NetBeans 24 or earlier ### Operating System Linux Mint 22.1 Cinammon ### JDK Zulu JDK 21 LTS (deb) x64 ### Apache NetBeans packaging Apache NetBeans binary zip ### Anything else The same was observed, but not reported, in NetBeans 24 IDE zip package. This did not happen with the earlier oficial .deb packages. ### Are you willing to submit a pull request? No -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
