### Apache NetBeans version Apache NetBeans 27 ### What happened Upon changes with Matisse that cause Swing GUI code regenerating, `*.setFloatable(false)` lines get removed for all JToolBar instances, if present previously for the edited form. New instances added via Matisse never get the line generated. This bean property is `true` [by default](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blame/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/JToolBar.java#L365) in the JDK. Yet Matisse treats it as if the default were `false`, evident by the way it is displayed in Netbeans. Immediately after adding a new JToolBar to a container component via Matisse, there's no bold text for "floatable" in Properties tab/table for it and the associated checkbox is unchecked. <img width="403" height="340" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cadb210f-606c-497e-b05c-5bfb578e462f" /> This means the user cannot set this property to `false` via the above checkbox for the code generator to pick up. The expected behavior is: immediately after adding a JToolBar component to a container component via Matisse, the "floatable" property is indeed set to `false` (unchecked checkbox), but appears with the bold text in the Properties tab/table and is also treated accordingly by the generator. <img width="403" height="340" alt="Image" src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0d614010-c50f-441c-835c-1fa66efe7b42" /> This is what this functionality worked as in older NB versions before this issue being introduced. I do not know when this happened, but we currently have classes that were generated in two different ways, since some were not touched in a while. All generated `.form` XML files (for JFrames) start with `<Form version="1.5" maxVersion="1.7"` so there's no way to differentiate based on these versions. ### Language / Project Type / NetBeans Component Java with ANT, Java Application, Matisse ### How to reproduce 1. Use "File > New Project... > Java with Ant > Java Application" to create a new project. Leave all fields as they are offered by default. 2. Under Projects tab, right-click the only java package entry ("javaapplication1") and choose "New > JFrame Form...", leave defaults and confirm. 3. Switch to Design mode for the newly created JFrame ("NewJFrame"). 4. Under Navigator tab for NewJFrame, right-click `[JFrame]` tree node, then "Add From Palette > Swing Containers > Tool Bar". 5. Select the newly added JToolBar and observe set properties under Properties tab/table. Example project (ignore creation timestamps, the VM's system time was not synced): [JavaApplication1.zip](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22023818/JavaApplication1.zip) ### Did this work correctly in an earlier version? No / Don't know ### Operating System Windows 10 and 11 ### JDK The one bundled with Windows NB installers ### Apache NetBeans packaging FoAN provided installer ### Anything else Always reproducible. I tested in a Windows 10 22H2 virtual machine with a freshly installed [NB 27](https://installers.friendsofapachenetbeans.org/). There may be other bean properties that are also affected - did not check. ### Are you willing to submit a pull request? No -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
