Greetings

I am using JDK1.2 to write an application that has a JSlider and
JTextField component. These components visibility is set to false when
the program starts and when the user selects an option I make them
visible with

MySlider.setVisible(true);
MyTextField.setVisible(true);

However neither component appears untill I manualy resize the the main
window. I have tried repaint() on the components and the frame. I have
also tried update(), invalidate(), validate() and even
setSize(getSize()) and nothing makes the components visible except
manualy resizing the frame.

I  am sure I am not the first person to run in to this so any
suggestions would be most appreciated.
