Hi Geertjan,

to check that you need and FTP account somewhere, then:
 * start a php web project
 * right click on the main project node
 * "properties"
 * "run configuration"
 * make sure "Run as" is set as "Remote Web Site (FTP, SFTP)
 * on the side of "Remote connection" click "Manage" and set the data of your 
FTP account (use "Pure FTP" to avoid extra problems in this test). Save.
 * back in the previous window, set "Upload Files" to "Manually". Click OK.
 * Create a new file in the project
 * In tree of the project, right click on such file and click "Synchronize"
 * An ftp connection will be established and you are now looking at a window 
that shows the name of the file.
 * Single click on the only row present (the name of the file)
 * Single click on the first icon in the lower panel. It's the icon with the 
image of a broken document (when you hover the mouse on it it says: "Review 
differencess between local and remote file"
 * At this point you see the bad window I was talking about

 

About making the modification by myself: It's difficult enough to find which 
component it is + I'm not good enough in Java programming to change the 
Netbeans code. I use Netbeans for web development only.

> Synchronize, Remote diff window too small

>                 Key: NETBEANS-2722
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2722
>             Project: NetBeans
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: php - FTP Support, php - Project
>    Affects Versions: 8.2, 11.0
>            Reporter: Riksoft
>            Priority: Major
>
> I can't tell if this is only related to PHP/Web project or to other kind of 
> project asl well, because I only use Netbeans for web development.
> Every time you have to check differences from local and remote file on a web 
> server (via FTP/FTPS/SFTP), the diff window is ridiculously small and has to 
> be resized +every time+. As soon as the window is closed, the diff of the 
> next file starts, again, with a useless small window.
> At least in the same synchro session the size should be kept.
>  Even better +Netbeans should remember the last size forever+, based on 
> project or, even better, globally since it depends more on the size of the 
> screen than on language or other variables.
> And by the way the initial default should be changed with higher values 
> (fixed or even better based on the monitor or main window size).
> The way it is now, it's really, really, nerve wracking with usability closed 
> to zero.
> _PS: by the way... the button "Take over local changes" is too ambiguous. I 
> think of "take over" as "take the place of", but actually is the opposite as 
> in "Send it out". Should be something like "Overwrite remote"/ "Overwrite 
> local"._
