Here is the code that demonstrates the problem.  There are 2 classes:
TestMouse and ObjectListMouseHandler.

TIA.
George


import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;

public class TestMouse extends JFrame {
  public TestMouse() {
    list.setModel(new ListModel());
    list.setFixedCellWidth(200);
    list.addMouseListener(new ObjectListMouseHandler());
    scrollPane.setViewportView(list);
    panel.setLayout(new CardLayout());
    panel.add(scrollPane, "Tab1");
    this.getContentPane().add(panel);
    this.setSize(this.getToolkit().getScreenSize());
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    TestMouse tm = new TestMouse();
    tm.show();
  }

  JPanel panel = new JPanel();
  JList list = new JList();
  JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();

  private class ListModel extends AbstractListModel {
    public Object getElementAt(int index) {
      return Integer.toString(index);
    }

    public int getSize() {
      return 50;
    }

  }
}
