Thanks Josh for your environment. Here's mine (should have included that with my initial post): Build incubator-netbeans-release-404-on-20190319) Java: 11.0.1; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 11.0.1+13-LTS Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 11.0.1+13-LTS System: Mac OS X version 10.14.4
I'm using a much more recent version of Java and macOS than you. I won't change my OS for NB, but if I get desperate, I might try going back to Java 8. But I wasn't really looking for a workaround - it doesn't happen all that frequently and I simply restart the IDE. No big deal. But it is a pretty severe bug and I wanted to file a Jira ticket (if one doesn't already exist) and provide relevant log/crash info. I posted because I was looking for someone to point me to where, on the Mac, to look for such crash info.
