Your problems seem like what I've experienced on some new computers we got.
Swing GUI component updating is so bad that my program is practically
unusable -- intense flickering (alternating between the current state of the
gui and some other state) -- or blanking out. Non-Java3D programs seem fine,
however.

Furthermore, the following J3D demo applets all exhibited the same poor
behavior : GeometryByReferenceTest, ImageComponentByReferenceTest,
InterleavedTest, PickTest, TextureByReference.

I also noticed that creating and opening a window (from within the java
program) while a Canvas3D is showing immediately crashes the jvm with:
An unexpected exception has been detected in native code outside the VM.
Unexpected Signal:EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION occurred at ...
Function Name=(N/A)
Library = C:\WINNT\system32\nvoglnt.dll
etc.

I suspect a bad driver may be the culprit but I won't really be able to
investigate it until one of these computers is actually on my desk.

Hello-

The flickering seems to have resolved itself when I removed the
KeyNavigatorBehavior from my BranchGroup, but my JMenuBar only appears on
every other click- i.e. click to display and it shows items, go to the next
menu or hide and show again, and the menu is greyed out.  Repeat, and it's
there again.

I noticed it also did it in the PrintCanvas3D demo.

Are these known issues and are there workarounds?

Subject: [JAVA3D] swing toolbar flicker


Hello-
I have a Swing applet, with a JMenuBar and a JToolBar.  I have a Canvas3D in
a JPanel with a simple ColorCube object in it.  I've called
JPopupMenu.setDefaultLightWeightPopupEnabled(false).

On a Win 2000 machine, with jdk 1.4, on a mouseover of the toolbar or
menubar, the toolbar and menubar both start flickering like crazy.  On a Win
XP, with jdk 1.4, the mouse flickers when it's over the Canvas.  On both
systems, when I open up a JFileChoose, the file chooser box flickers.

I've read the FAQs, and searched google and the archives and can't find a
solution.  Anyone have any ideas?  Thanks!
