Hi,
I have a JCheckBox which dictates the enabling/disabling of another
JTextField.

 jchkbox.addChangeListener(ChangeListener() {
    public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent ce) {
        jtxtField.setEnabled(jchkbox.isSelected());
   }
});

the enabling/disabling works properly but the color is not changed
immediately. For e.g when jtxtField becomes disabled the Text is still
in black color, but on refocus on it, it is grayed and viceversa.

is there any other property im unaware of ?

thanks
