I'll assume that Insets fixes the problem - it was, in any event, secondary
to something else that was bugging me; MouseEvent.isPopuptrigger() always
returns false on OS/2 & NT - that's why my sample code was doing mousey
things.
One thing about this Insets caper bugs me though: I have a Frame: its
background is white. I position a window (MenuBar, grey) at the top using
the value returned by Insets. On OS/2 it looks fine: on Linux there's a 1-2
pixel white line above the MenuBar.
I'll hide the problem for now by changing my colours.
btw I have noticed the Insets returned by OS/2 are different. I've also
noticed that Insets returns all zeroes if the window's not visible -
another spastic idea. Perhaps I'll bug Sun with that one though.
Thanks for the help.
Cheers
