Eirik Bakke commented on NETBEANS-403:
--------------------------------------

Doing a bit of research on this, the problem seems to be that 
javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit$EndAction.actionPerformed is called instead 
of org.netbeans.editor.BaseKit$EndLineAction.actionPerformed whenever a popup 
is open when the "End" key is pressed (and presumably the same for the Home 
key).

In the normal case, the stack trace is as follows:

{noformat}
at org.netbeans.editor.BaseKit$EndLineAction.actionPerformed(BaseKit.java:3539)
at org.netbeans.editor.BaseAction.actionPerformed(BaseAction.java:347)
at 
org.netbeans.spi.editor.AbstractEditorAction.actionPerformed(AbstractEditorAction.java:468)
at javax.swing.SwingUtilities.notifyAction(SwingUtilities.java:1663)
at javax.swing.JComponent.processKeyBinding(JComponent.java:2882)
at javax.swing.JComponent.processKeyBindings(JComponent.java:2929)
at javax.swing.JComponent.processKeyEvent(JComponent.java:2845)
...standard AWT trace follows...
{noformat}

In the popup case, the stack trace is as follows:

{code:java}
at 
javax.swing.text.DefaultEditorKit$EndAction.actionPerformed(DefaultEditorKit.java:2134)
at 
org.netbeans.editor.PopupManager$PopupKeyListener.keyPressed(PopupManager.java:514)
at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:250)
at java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster.keyPressed(AWTEventMulticaster.java:249)
at java.awt.Component.processKeyEvent(Component.java:6491)
at javax.swing.JComponent.processKeyEvent(JComponent.java:2832)
...standard AWT trace follows, same as in the non-popup case...

>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: editor - Key bindings
>    Affects Versions: 8.2, 9.0

>            Priority: Major

> When a tooltip is shown in the Java editor, for instance because the mouse is 
> hovering over an error indication, pressing the Home or End keys on the 
> keyboard scrolls the entire document all the way to the top or end, 
> respectively instead of to the beginning or end of the current line. This is 
> extremely disruptive, and likely very confusing to users, as it only happens 
> in the stated situation.
> A workaround is to move the mouse pointer away from the editor to close the 
> popup after examining an error. Most users will not be able to discover this 
> workaround, though--for myself, it took two weeks to discover the correlation 
> between the tooltip being open and the bug occurring.
> This bug seems to have been introduced in 8.2, and I justĀ confirmed that it 
> is still present on the new Apache NetBeans 9.0 beta release.
> This issue was first reported as issue #270842 by timothyrheider in the old 
> BugZilla tracker, on 2017-06-09:
> https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=270842
