IIRC the default implementation is in core.windows. I'd step through in the debugger and see what it's doing, because I don't think that's the expected behaviour. Vague recollection of this being mentioned with regards to the IDE too fairly recently. https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/platform/core.windows/src/org/netbeans/core/windows/services/DialogDisplayerImpl.java Best wishes, Neil --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@netbeans.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@netbeans.apache.org For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
