Hi, all

My environment: WinNT 4.0 + SP4, JBuilder 2.0 (pure 2.0, not 2.01, 2.01x,
etc), JDK 1.1.6_Borland, Swing 1.0.1 (shipped with JB).

I made an application using only JBCL controls, panels, etc. One of the
controls is the TreeControl with about a dozen custom node painters/editors.
The app's frame is a DecoratedFrame. All work as expected.

Then I created one more node editor extended from JComboBoxItemEditor and
add it to the tree. But it doesn't work: when I start an editing session on
this node the combobox (text field + arrow button) appears but w/o the
current node's value in the text field. And I cannot enter/edit in this text
field: any keystrokes and mouse clicks do nothing. When I press the
combobox's arrow button the drop-down list appears blank (but I add some
items to it) and doesn't react on any my actions.

After two days of hard work (not work but torture) I changed the app's frame
to Swing's JFrame. The combobox begun to work better: the drop-down list
functions as it should. But the text field continues to work unstable:
sometimes it allows editing, sometimes not. Sometimes the combobox's arrow
button disappears. Any addNotify(), validate(), etc don't help.

BTW, does anybody know how to control the combobox's text field editor. I
want to monitor ESC and ENTER keystrokes but cannot do this.

Thanks, Yuri.
