I set up a class that extends JFrame and implements MouseListener.  The
class displays  a graph, and when the graph is clicked with the mouse

method I call to zoom can have multiple frames, but when calling the

is there a way to add a graphics2d object that alreasy exists to a

I need to draw a table which will be full of numbers. I also need to draw
lines over the numbers (for example, draw a horizontal line from the first

Has anyone written a decent one?
I had an app that worked fine in 1.3, in 1.4 the focussing is a disaster.

I've started building a small swing app in Netbeans 5.0 using the matisse GUI

I have a Java Swing app written in JDK1.3.1 with runs under X windows
using the Ratpoison window manager.  But when I tried running the same

somebody posted a way to hide the root icon of a Jtree. Does anyone
recall what it was?

Hello big brains.  I'm interested in your advice.  I'm solving a
problem in my own particular way and I was wondering if you could tell
me if it makes sense?  Perhaps there's an easier way or maybe even a
mechanism already built into swing that I'm unaware of.  Dunno.

 I'm having a bit of a problem with a JComboBox. I've subclassed it so
that users can enter a string into the combobox and only entries that
contain that string are shown. However, the list has gotten large, over
35,000. At this point, if the user presses the down cursor (VK_DOWN),

Has anyone figured out how to create a jsplitpane without the slider. I
