Created attachment 110325 [details] Spelling variants popup list Hello, I found the following issue in comments spellchecker (in C++ editor). Take a look at the attached screenshot. Notice here that the upper bound of the screenshot is exactly the display upper bound. When I pressed Alt-Enter at the highlighted word (in my example it's 'aka'), I saw that the list beginning was started outside the display boundaries. Pressing arrows up and down and selecting spelling variants showed me valid different words, but I was unable to see the entire list. If it matters: I'm using Debian Linux on a netbook (Lenovo S10, 1024x600 screen resolution), xfce, openjdk 1.6.0_18 from the Debian Squeeze: $ java -version java version "1.6.0_18" OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.8.7) (6b18-1.8.7-2~squeeze1) OpenJDK Client VM (build 14.0-b16, mixed mode, sharing) Not sure wether it is a netbeans editor core issue or it is a C++ editor specific.
If I type awt, it puts the list off the top of the screen in Vista just like your screenshot. Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201110160600) Java: 1.7.0; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 21.0-b17 System: Windows Vista version 6.0 running on x86; Cp1252; en_US (nb)

I have improved the computation of the hint pop-up location and size:http://hg.netbeans.org/jet-main/rev/dc024eb901ba
Integrated into 'main-golden' Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-golden/rev/dc024eb901ba User: Jan Lahoda <jlahoda@netbeans.org> Log: #201528: placing the hint pop-up above the current row only if it will give the pop-up more space, making sure the pop-up always fits to screen.
