Quite a long time ago (end of 1999-start o 2000 on jdk12x), when I was developing with swing, an article appeared (on javaworld ?) about semi-modal dialogs. Basically, you have to substitute the built-in event queue with your own. Starting form the article, I implemented them and worked beautifully for our app.
