Hi,
I'm trying to display a Canvas3D in  JTable. Following problem occurs:
As you can see in the source code below I'm extending the class Panel
(or JPanel). In my class J3DPanel I'm using a Canvas3D and setting the
bounds. Assigning my class to a Frame will always fill the full Frame
with the Canvas3D, despite to my calls to setBounds, setSize etc.

My question: Is there any way to set the size and location of an
Canvas3D so I can display it inside a JTable?

I'm using a Macintosh with OS X if this is of interest.

Cheers,
Jörg
