Description _ gtzabari 2015-05-21 23:15:45 UTC 
Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 201505210001)
Java: 1.8.0_45; Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.45-b02
Runtime: Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment 1.8.0_45-b14
System: Windows 7 version 6.1 running on amd64; Cp1252; en_US (nb)
User directory: C:\dev\Netbeans\user\dev
Cache directory: C:\dev\Netbeans\cache\dev

This feature broke sometime in the past week.

Repro steps:
1. Open Netbeans
2. Open any file in editor.
3. Hit SHIFT+ESC to maximize window. This will work for a few seconds after Netbeans launches but around 10-15 seconds later it will stop working (clicking the keys will do nothing).

By contrast, CTRL+ESC continues working for other components, like the Projects or Output tabs.

reprducible,

it seems to be problem of editor, shift-esc works well in other components (navigator, output ....)
Comment 2 Milutin Kristofic 2015-05-28 10:57:22 UTC 
I am sorry I introduced this bug by fixing Bug #252314, I already revert my
change, so in the most recent dev build Shift + Esc should work.

Comment 4 Milutin Kristofic 2017-04-03 13:35:51 UTC 
I cannot reproduce this anymore. Can you describe your problem? Can you attach messages.log?
Comment 5 _ gtzabari 2017-04-03 13:39:32 UTC 
I can no longer reproduce this problem, so I guess it's up to r.gambelli@netbeans.org to provide messages.log if they still have this problem.
Comment 6 r.gambelli 2017-04-03 14:09:21 UTC 
I don't believe messages.log can help you, anyway tell me what should I do:
should I clean messages.log, start NetBeans, open one editor and click some times shift+esc? and then attach here my messages.log?
Comment 7 Milutin Kristofic 2017-04-03 14:13:36 UTC 
I can see if you have third-party plugins, or investigate why shift+esc doesn't work. It works for me. I can open file, I can have open down output window and by pressing shift+esc and output window is minimized and editor is from top to bottom
Comment 8 r.gambelli 2017-04-03 15:38:08 UTC 
Thanks Milutin, could you answer to my question in my previous comment?
Comment 9 Milutin Kristofic 2017-04-04 08:52:58 UTC 
Yes, that would be nice to do, just open netbeans, try shift+esc few times and send messages.log. It would be great if you attach screenshot and some description what do you expect and what happens.
