[JAVA3D] Cannot see Canvas3D

[Papageorgiou Athanasios]

Hello all,   I am experiencing a bizarre problem when running a JApplet that uses a JPanel that contains a Canvas3D object.   When I run the program through the Windows NT (with service pack 6) command prompt and I do not change the focus to another window I cannot see the Canvas3D object, although it actually exists, because I can manipulate it!   However, when I change the focus after running the program i.e. I type at the command prompt> java myClass and then move the focus to an Explorer window I see the Canvas3D object and off course I can manipulate it.   I have installed Java 1.2.2 and Java 3D 1.1.3 with OpenGL. When I used Java 3D 1.2beta1 there was no problem (however I cannot require fro the users to install a beta version to run the program).   Is this a Java3D problem, or it has to do with mixing Heavy/Lightweight Components.     Athanasios Papageorgiou e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
