#4892 — netbeans

Greetings.

I have "strange" problem. I created java desktop app under netbeans,
added some basic design, buttons, forms etc.
After some basic programming i compilled the program without errors.
You can see the whole gui.

After that i added some code and new class ( deleted one of the old ones )
and now there's no design or source tab.

E.g. if i click on some file (let's say maintest.java ) i will get the 
source but there is no switching to design view.
If i run inspector i get empty window.

It important to say that this has working before and if i compile the 
program it will load whole gui with forms and buttons.

Where can i switch this options ?

Just to clarify: Did you create a "Java Desktop Application" or a "Java 
Application"? More on the difference may be found here:

Did you delete any files ending in ".form"? They contain the design 
details.

Look for buttons labeled "Source and "Design".

In the files/src folder you can find just 3 files and all of them have 
.java extension. Nothing else is in the source folder.

* this is what i am looking for :-)

Thank you for your time.

Sadly, if the corresponding ".form" files are missing, then the required 
design information is lost with them. My scratch project looks like this:

$ ls guibuilder/src/temp/
Main.form   Main.java

If you have no backup and the loss is sufficiently recent, NetBeans' 
Local History may have a copy.

I recall having to close and re-open a project occasionally in 6.8 to 
restore the buttons, but not in more recent versions.
