This directory contains a fixed GlassPane example.
This fixes two bugs:
1) Key events were not supressed in the original example, they are now
2) On 1.2 and 1.3 systems, firHtmlLabelst mouse click after removing glass pane
would not be sent to the component under the mouse. This was a bug
in the way JRootPane handled the glass pane component that has been
fixed in the 1.4 release. FixedGlassPane.java (see below) provides
a workaround for 1.2 and 1.3, but is still safe to use with 1.4.
The updated files are:
SwingGlassExample.java Updated to use (and control) the new glass pane
FixedGlassPane.java Extension of JPanel that allows for redispatching
erroneous events to their rightful owners
