I seem to have figured out how to fix this. In the Project tree, I right-clicked on <this layer> in my branding module and searched for "clipboard". One file was found called Standard.xml. Interestingly, I couldn't find a physical file named Standard.xml anywhere in the project folders using Windows search. I right-clicked on the file and selected Edit. That opened an editor tab that had the following:
<!DOCTYPE Configuration PUBLIC "-//NetBeans IDE//DTD toolbar//EN" http://www.netbeans.org/dtds/toolbar.dtd> <Configuration> <Row> <Toolbar name="File" /> <Toolbar name="Clipboard" visible="false"/> <Toolbar name="UndoRedo" /> <Toolbar name="Memory" /> </Row> </Configuration> I modified that file to be: <Configuration> <Row> <Toolbar name="File" /> <Toolbar name="Clipboard" /> <Toolbar name="UndoRedo" /> <Toolbar name="Memory" visible="false"/> </Row> And now, after Clean and Build, the Performance tool bar is unchecked, and the Clipboard toolbar is checked! I also noticed that this process created a physical file called Standard.xml in the source tree under my branding module in the folder where layer.xml and Bundle.properties are located. I verified from my daily computer backup that this file did not exist previously. So, apparently Standard.xml is some kind of default or autogenerated pseudo-file, and once the build system determines that it has been modified, a real physical file is created. At least that seems to be what is going on. Thank You!

In the branding module for my Netbeans Platform application, under <this layer in context>|Toolbars, I have: File, Clipboard, Undo/Redo, Performance, and Standard. After a Clean and Build of my app, Clipboard will be turned off in the application, and all the others will be on, as shown below. How can I turn Clipboard on and Performance off as "default", so that after Clean and Build, Clipboard will be on, and Performance well be off? One can make this adjustment after the app runs, and the app will remember the Toolbar settings upon subsequent restarts, but I would like to set the default appearance. Probably something simple, but I can't seem to find it. [cid:image001.png@01D916B4.AC098650] Thank You! Joe Huber Standard Refrigeration LLC
