I am using version Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200806090002) Java: 1.6.0_06; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 10.0-b22 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1252; en_GB (nb) I created a code template at "Tools | Options | Editor | Code Templates" After the new code template is added, the wizard does not allow editing of the "Abbreviation" I have to delete the template and re-add it as a new name.
reassign to editor for evaluation
While unfortunate it was actually designed this way. The abbreviation is used as a unique identification of a code template. Things have changed a little bit since the original design and IMO the UI could now be changed to allow editing of the abbreviation field.
