Hello.
Since the Canvas is heavyweight component (AWT component) it comes above
the light components (Swing components) like your pulldown menu.
In my opinion the main difference between Canvas and Panel is that Panel
extends Container while Canvas doesn't.
In Swing, however, JComponent extends Container - as written in the "Swing
Short Course, Part I":
"All JComponents are subclasses of java.awt.Container. This allows Swing
widgets, such as JLabel, to contain other components (either AWT or Swing).
This make for some interesting possibilities."
What I would do in your case is to use JPanel instead of Canvas.
I hope this will help.
