On Mac, we got the following Exception and the Preferences are not opened. This is very annoying. I need to setup the path to the SceneBuilder tool. java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: No such child: 1 at java.awt.Container.getComponent(Container.java:327) at org.netbeans.modules.options.OptionsPanel.initUI(OptionsPanel.java:332) at org.netbeans.modules.options.OptionsPanel.<init>(OptionsPanel.java:171) at org.netbeans.modules.options.OptionsDisplayerImpl.showOptionsDialog(OptionsDisplayerImpl.java:165) at org.netbeans.api.options.OptionsDisplayer$3.run(OptionsDisplayer.java:190) at org.netbeans.api.options.OptionsDisplayer$3.run(OptionsDisplayer.java:176) at org.openide.util.Mutex.doEventAccess(Mutex.java:1363) at org.openide.util.Mutex.readAccess(Mutex.java:273) at org.netbeans.api.options.OptionsDisplayer.openImpl(OptionsDisplayer.java:176) at org.netbeans.api.options.OptionsDisplayer.open(OptionsDisplayer.java:163) at org.netbeans.api.options.OptionsDisplayer.open(OptionsDisplayer.java:117) at org.netbeans.modules.options.OptionsWindowAction.actionPerformed(OptionsWindowAction.java:64) at org.openide.awt.AlwaysEnabledAction$1.run(AlwaysEnabledAction.java:197) at org.openide.util.actions.ActionInvoker$1.run(ActionInvoker.java:95) at org.openide.util.actions.ActionInvoker.doPerformAction(ActionInvoker.java:116) at org.openide.util.actions.ActionInvoker.invokeAction(ActionInvoker.java:99) at org.openide.awt.AlwaysEnabledAction.actionPerformed(AlwaysEnabledAction.java:200) [catch] at org.netbeans.modules.applemenu.NbApplicationAdapter.performAction(NbApplicationAdapter.java:194) at org.netbeans.modules.applemenu.NbApplicationAdapter.handlePreferences(NbApplicationAdapter.java:172) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventLegacyHandler$2.dispatchEvent(_AppEventLegacyHandler.java:110) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventLegacyHandler.sendEventToEachListenerUntilHandled(_AppEventLegacyHandler.java:188) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventLegacyHandler.handlePreferences(_AppEventLegacyHandler.java:108) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventHandler$_PreferencesDispatcher.performUsing(_AppEventHandler.java:261) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventHandler$_PreferencesDispatcher.performUsing(_AppEventHandler.java:252) at com.apple.eawt._AppEventHandler$_AppEventDispatcher$1.run(_AppEventHandler.java:497) at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:251) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEventImpl(EventQueue.java:711) at java.awt.EventQueue.access$000(EventQueue.java:104) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:672) at java.awt.EventQueue$3.run(EventQueue.java:670) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.security.ProtectionDomain$1.doIntersectionPrivilege(ProtectionDomain.java:76) at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:681) at org.netbeans.core.TimableEventQueue.dispatchEvent(TimableEventQueue.java:158) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(EventDispatchThread.java:244) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(EventDispatchThread.java:163) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:151) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:147) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:139) at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:97)
If I understand it right you mean the IDE wide Options panel does not show up at all when you try to open it through menu Tools->Options ? (on Mac I understand IDE Options is actually called Properties and is accessible in the standard menu position where all applications have it, is it the last item in the leftmost submenu or so?) If the IDE Options/Properties dialog as a whole fails to open, it needs to be investigated with priority. Fanis please would you evaluate?
Yes, on Mac you have in the NetBeans menu, a Preferences menu. The Preferences as a whole fails to open.
I think this should be fixed by http://hg.netbeans.org/core-main/rev/98775f5d9c27 If not please reopen. I guess it is not into main-golden yet. Thank you
