To: comp.lang.java.programmer One thing I really, really want in Swing is this: http://www.osrmt.com/downloads/temp/usability_want.png specifically the context sensitive placement of the toolbar and menu access in relation to the tabs i.e. same level (vital to preserve space) and far right. As far as I can tell I could do it if I subclassed JTabbedPane, override one of the paint methods, draw the images, add mouse events to rollover images and interact on click. But, no doubt I would eventually run into problems (especially with changing lafs). I havent tried it but I assume with JDK 1.6 I can create a toolbar on a JPanel and then use the panel for the tab portion of the tab. A long toolbar might look silly but perhaps the following looks decent: http://www.osrmt.com/downloads/temp/usability_have.png What do you think? --- * Synchronet * The Whitehouse BBS --- whitehouse.hulds.com --- check it out free usenet! --- Synchronet 3.15a-Win32 NewsLink 1.92 Time Warp of the Future BBS - telnet://time.synchro.net:24
