Can you try switching to another Look and Feel, eg. Nimbus?=C2=A0 You&#39;l=
l<br>
need to tick &quot;Show all look and feels&quot; to select.<br>
<br>
This reminds me of an issue I had with a lot of dialogs on ChromeOS<br>
that was fixed at <a href=3D"https://github.com/JFormDesigner/FlatLaf/issue=
s/1029" rel=3D"noreferrer noreferrer" target=3D"_blank">https://github.com/=
JFormDesigner/FlatLaf/issues/1029</a><br>
<br>
I just checked and that particular popup is still broken on ChromeOS<br>
using FlatLaf but not Nimbus.<br>
<br>
You could also try running<br>
<br>
netbeans -J-Dwebswing.rootDir=3Dchrome<br>
<br>
This fixes it for me.=C2=A0 It&#39;s a workaround to force lightweight popu=
ps in FlatLaf.<br>
<br>
Please confirm if the same fix works for you as it might be there is<br>
more to fix in the look and feel here.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
