Hi Jimmy,
I was probably too quick when I thought that I found the solution.
I was able to add and see my Swing components, but now I have problem
with BarMenu component. When I click on corresponding JMenuBar root
menu item (on MenuBar widget), it highlights, but I cannot see the
drop-down part of my menu and the menu does not accept mouse clicks.
Again, I can click on the "File" label in the MenuBar and it highlights,
but I cannot see the rest of the menu items. All of the event generation
happened in the Swing component area, so AWT should not change anything
(in theory). However, in practice it is quite different.
Do you have any ideas what to do?
Do you think it might be relevant to specific JDK like
Blackdown, Inprise, IBM, etc.?
Regards,
Jacob Nikom
