I'm using NB 14 and I've tried running the IDE on JDK 11 and 18, both
from Adoptium, on Win 10.
I've found that very often the IDE will freeze if in the Swing
Navigator, I select a component eg.a JPanel, then right-click on it
and move the mouse over to the popup menu. Usually happens when I
hover over a selection that has a secondary menu such as Set Layout.
The secondary menu will open and then the IDE freezes. I'm then forced
to kill NB from the Win Task Manager and restart. Tends to not happen
during the first few such actions but after several such actions it
will eventually freeze (within 5 -10 minutes of having restarted the IDE)
My 2 questions:
1) Is this a known issue? I've had to kill/restart the IDE around 20
times today. If not a known issue then I'll try to create a small demo
case for it.
yes. It is fixed in NB 15. You can test the first release candidate if
you want which was released today.

2) Is there any way I can avoid the component Navigator's popup for
Set Layout->Free Design/Border Layout such as a keyboard shortcut? I
don't see this setting in the Properties window.
as workaround you could also use a different look&feel until NB 15 is
released.
