This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
See the two attached screenshots for comparison. Files view and Debugging view. In Gnome the background of the Debugging view is painted correctly (white in the case of my theme) only directly under the items of the tree. The background (white) should be drawn in the whole area of the view.

Size of the tree view needs to be adjusted or the background color set on a proper component.
This can be reproduced on JDK 1.6.0_10-rc-b26 with com.sun.java.swing.plaf.gtk.GTKLookAndFeel However, on JDK 1.7.0-ea-b35 the background looks consistent. Due to this, I consider this issue as a defect of GTK L&F on JDK 6, which is already fixed in JDK 7. Due to that this will not be fixed in NetBeans. I've found http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5089821
Simple adjustment of the component size to fill the whole panel is not possible?
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
