Re: [JAVA3D] Behavior stops when minimized

[Illarramendi Amilibia, Aitor]

Hello Kelvin:

        I'm suffering the same problem under Windows 2K.�

        But I suffer it while running under IE.

        When I minimize the panel,frame, etc. containing the Canvas3D and I
maximize it the next time the behaviors don�t seem to activate.

Regards.

Current implementation will stop Behavior scheduler
when window iconified to free CPU doing other OS task.

Under Netscape/IE, however, window listener of
fail to receive windowIconified() notification
(It is a bug) so Behavior scheduler did not stop as expected.
