That is "the infamous Metal L&F bug" that was introduced in JFC 1.02
and higher and is one of the reasons we have not "forced" migration to
the later releases of JFC.  Until it get's fixed (check the JDC Bug
Parade -- they may have included a planned fix date), the only work
around is to not use Metal L&F.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
