Description dustin_mccartney 2008-03-07 01:33:14 UTC 
Sometimes when moving the right edge of components (JTextField being one) toward the right edge of the parent component,
the parent component (JPanel) resizes for an unexplained reason.  Attached is a sample Form that exhibits this problem.

 1) Open the attached Form in Design mode.
 2) Select the JTextField which contains the text "Move right edge to the right --->".
 3) Move the right edge handle of this component right towards the button labeled "Version".
 4) Watch the parent component's width increase [WRONG]

Expected Behavior

The parent component's width should not resize.

This _might_ be related to Issue #129225 (http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=129225)

Comment 3 dustin_mccartney 2008-03-07 01:43:18 UTC 
More odd behavior can be seen by loading the attached Java/Form and:

 1) Switch to "Design" mode.
 2) Delete the button labeled "Version" to the right of the JTextField containing the text "Move right edge to the right
--->".
 3) Select the JTextField containing the text "Move right edge to the right --->" and move it's right edge handle so
that it aligns with the RIGHT edge of the "Version" buttons below it.
 4) When you let go of the mouse button, the JTextField snaps back to its original width.  [WRONG]

Expected Behavior

The JTextField should be re-sized to have its right edge matched with the right edges of the "Version" buttons.

Reproducible.
Comment 5 asenk 2011-10-04 11:53:20 UTC 
The second case is fixed.
The first one is still valid
