I have a non-modal Jdialog I'm using as a Wait screen and for some
reason the background isn't painting (it's transparent).  The background
of the text fields are painting, so I get blotches of gray in my dialog
(it's really ugly).

I've tried pack(), validate(), repaint(), doLayout(), everything I could
think of, but nothing works.  What am I missing?

Here's the relevant code:

  private void jbInit(String message_str) throws Exception{
    this.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.WAIT_CURSOR));
    xYLayout1.setWidth(300);
    xYLayout1.setHeight(125);
    lbc1.setText("Please wait...");
    lbc2.setAlignment(Label.RIGHT);
    lbc2.setText("..." + message_str);
    panel1.setLayout(xYLayout1);
    panel1.add(lbc1, new XYConstraints(10, 43, 272, 30));
    panel1.add(lbc2, new XYConstraints(5, 67, 284, 30));
  }


Thanks.
