Is the JFrame at the application level or at each individual, drag-able, frame level? I don't necessarily need example code if you can do a bit of a "brain dump" with some of the trickier details. You said " new top-level JFrame, and host the Pivot window inside that" -- how is that relationship made? I see JFrame will give a Graphics object, and I know Pivot components draw themselves with Graphics....
