NB 12.2 Highlights

2020-12-08 Thread Brenden Towey
So I often post problems with NB here, I thought I'd talk about some of the features in 12.2 I like: 1. The new "Dark" themes are nice and look good.  Only just started using them but the feature is welcome. 2. The "janitor" that checks old installs and cleans them up is useful idea.  It che

Weirdly, this does not seem to be correct.  It appears the file permissions don't matter.  From that Superuser question I alluded to earlier: "Because file permissions don't matter, it is an operating system protected area. You need to copy out and back in, and OK the UAC prompt. If you have

Yup, this worked.  It is super inconvenient though.  First, I'm used to picking Gvim directly off of a context menu  (right click the file, pick "Edit with Gvim").  Second I have to actually navigate to the Gvim file on my hard drive to do this.  Windows doesn't present "run as administrator"

Thanks for replying.  I tried that and it didn't help.  I think I have the right Jar files imported, but I can't get the build system to recognize them.  It's a brand new project so I think I'll just switch to Maven, I think I can get the artifact IDs for the files. On 10/27/2020 4:49 PM, Las

Hi folks, I'm trying to add a library to a new NetBeans Gradle project I just created.  The library is new too, just two Jar files I added from my hard drive. I don't see an option to add a library when I right click on the project.  Does this function exist somewhere? If not, could I get
