The bleed-through you describe is documented in the "HintsAndTips.txt"
file which is in the root folder of your JBuilder 2 installation.
It is related to the mixing of light- and heavyweight components.

There are several solutions: place all the controls in AWT Panels
instead of JBCL BevelPanels; or use all Swing components.  The
latter may not be so easy if you are binding controls to datasets.

The problem with the mouse cursor may be resolved if you
set the mouse cursor of the frame, not that of the component.
