I drag some elements such as JTextField onto the Frame. Sometimes, the generate code declares the textField as a class attribute. But, sometimes the textField becomes a local variable in method initialize(). How can I avoid the latter case? Thanks.

That is entirely controlled by the code generation prefs you have in place and whether you converted any of the text fields into local variables or not. It only take one click to convert a widget from a field to a local and vice versa.
