Hello bienator I doubt it is possible to "to render swing components on top of the heavyweight Canvas" and make it feels like a real Swing component
Swing doesn't just "paints" components to JFrame, it also contains MouseEvents processing mechanism To have a live Swing component you should add it to a lightweight container You can probably have a hidden component and translate events from your canvas to it and than udate the image on the canvas but will be so hacky and unreliable so don't recommend it if you still want to play with event tranformations etc. have a look JXTransformer from https://swinghelper.dev.java.net/ Thanks alexp [Message sent by forum member 'alexfromsun' (alexfromsun)] http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=155401 =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA2D-INTEREST".
