The goal is to remove Advanced Options altogether and expose the 'useful' options in standard mode of the Tools-Options dialog. However, some of the settings that are rarely used will not be exposed at all. Why do you need to change the default value of CC delay? Thanks I personally find the delay too long as I'm used to the instant popup in Visual Studio. This is my first time seriously trying out a Java IDE and initially I thought Netbeans was slow. I later on found out that it used to be configurable in previous versions but couldn't find it in v6. I support your goal about exposing useful options in standard mode for majority users but there should still be a convenient way for more demanding users to tweak rarely used settings. Thanks for the additional info. We might have some sort of a property sheet for advanced users who want to tweak not-so-commonly-used options. Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200811200201) Java: 1.6.0_10-rc; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.0-b13 System: Linux version 2.6.27-8-generic running on i386; UTF-8; en_US (nb) Please note that this option (delay before automatic CC/Javadoc popup) is not present anywhere since 6.5 - it was not transfered from Advanced Options. Looking at 7.0 GUI, maybe it can be now placed somewhere in "Tools>Options>Editor>Code Completion" (???). http://www.nabble.com/NB-6.5---Enhanced-options-tt20601365.html As a workaround in the file: %USERPROFILE%/.netbeans/6.5/config/Editors/text/x-java/Preferences/org-netbeans-modules-editor-settings-CustomPreferences.xml The value completion-auto-popup-delay can be set manually. Currently no plans for adding a visual option. Will resolve later. I am missing GUI Builder Grid X, Grid Y options from Advanced Options, and probably Apply Grid To Position/Size. Or is it possible to set these options somewhere in configuration files please? Best regards. Vit Mares Hi maresv, please file this issue against form component. This issue is about missing 'Delay of Completion Window Auto Popup'. Your problem must be solved separately in form module.
