I am using a frame control that extends DecoratedFrame and requires a menu. Two other controls also extend DecoratedFrame and require the same menu. If I could get each of the 3 frame controls to _inherit_ a class that included only the common menu, I would be able to modify the menu structure in one place and have it support all of the controls identically. However, when I have experimented with this by having my control extend CommonMenu which extends DecoratedFrame, the run time menu commands turn up on the frame itself, not in a menu panel - or that's how it looks. Question 1 - Is this a feasible thing to ask of Java/JBuilder, or am I whistling into the wind? Question 2 - If feasible, how can I get the menu look that I get out of the straight up way of doing things? -- Leo Cohen 116-1 Howard Drive Charlottesville, VA 22903 804-243-8922 (UVA) 804-244-4648 (home) 804-244-7922 (fax) lcohen@cs.virginia.edu
