Miscellany

Here’s a good example of some bad user interface design in my favorite IDE.


I know the Maven stuff is a plugin, so I’m guessing NetBeans allows plugins to install tabs under “Miscellaneous”. So what you end up with is a configuration screen that looks simple until you find out that there are really supposed to be 30 tabs instead of 7, but they are hiding out in the Miscellaneous section.
