Geertjan Wielenga commented on NETBEANS-492:
--------------------------------------------
I think rather than hiding the whole textfield, we should disable the
QuickSearchProvider for JavaHelp. I can look into this.

> # Type e.g. _properties_ into the *Search* field in the upper right corner
> of the IDE.
> # Press Enter.
> *Expected:*
> Standard help window is opened with relevant information.
> *Actual:*
> NetBeans opens an exception dialog.
