> Affects Versions: 8.2, 9.0

> 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 just confirmed that it
> is still present on the new Apache NetBeans 9.0 beta release.
