Right now I am working on a GUI application In java using the GUI builder that comes with NetBeans.
However I have found some kind of strange bug/feature, as I am no longer able to see the window that allows users to change between "source" and "design" (Design is the drag and drop NetBeans gui builder while source is the code where you can add your own methods and so forth).
NOTE: the red is censored information that is not necessary.
When I right click on a component to add event code, then it takes me to the source (without a window for me to change back to design, it goes back to design when i close and reopen it). So I know that NetBeans recognizes that this is indeed a JFrame form with the NetBeans GUI designer, and the source code is indeed availible..
I could not find any answers to this question on this site or on the web, I have tried resetting the windows but it did not work, I also couldn't find the window when I clicked on the window option. I am sure there is some easy question but I am unable to find it. Please forgive me if this was an easy question.

Select Tools > Options from the menu to open it and then select the "JFormDesigner" page. See Preferences for details. You can also set project specific options in the NetBeans project dialog. Select File > Project Properties from the menu to open it and then expand the node "JFormDesigner" in the tree.
You can change the of the preview by: Tools-Options Miscellaneous tab Windows tab Look and Feel:Preferred look and feel. With this the look and feel of the IDE changes too. That only changes the IDE.
Set the size of the Left and Right gaps to 0 and click OK. The gaps to the left and right of the buttons are removed using the Edit Layout Space dialog box.
On the menu bar, try clicking View -> Show Editor Toolbar
