That is better - I was calling showInternalMessageDialog using parent frame of the application. I I call showMessageDialog and parent it off the canvas3d it seems to work better. The only problem is that I think you need to use showInternalMessageDialog if you want to be able to use Fullscreen, which was originally our plan. In a convenient good-news/bad-news kind of way, the application crashes silently the first time it tries to use any Java3D, so it probably doesn't matter anyway.

Maybe if you provide some more info about how you are creating your dialogs then someone will be able to help out. I don't have a particular suggestion as to the cause but maybe you should look at whether or not your dialogs are modal and what are you setting as the parent for your dialogs when you create them? -Ewan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ben Moxon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 3:07 PM Subject: Re: [JAVA3D] application-wide popup switch My JDialogs are all still popping up under the Canvas3D.

However to make popup menus and tooltips heavyweightyou just need to add the following code when initializing your app: JPopupMenu.setLightWeightPopupEnabled(false); ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().setLightWeightPopupEnabled(false); Hope this helps, Ewan ----- Ewan Borland Computer Vision & Graphics Group Department of Computing Science University of Glasgow +44 (0)141 330 0209 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ben Moxon" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, August 18, 2003 1:41 PM Subject: [JAVA3D] application-wide popup switch Is there a way to tell a swing application that you want every popup menu it uses and Jdialog to be created as heavyweight? It's a bit tiresome wandering around a big application telling it to do stuff each time, if you see what I mean. I know this is technically a Swing question, but as they are all disappearing under J3D components at the moment I figured it was worth asking here.
