Hello,

actually, I use custom tags a lot. Some are simple, some more complex.

One of the more complex custom tag I use deals with the limitation of 
JCheckboxMenuItem, as this does not propagate its selected state to actions 
connected. So I extended JCheckboxMenuItem, JToggleButton and AbstractAction 
(no custom tag for that, as you may have guessed). In the extended classes I 
fire a property change event in the overwritten method setSelected().

Other custom tags include drag-and-drop-images, components displaying some zoom 
factor, help enabled everything (see mailinglist archive for that).

Hope this gives you a rough idea.

Yours,

Frank Meissner
