Michael:

Beans are identified in the mainfest file (mf) of their archive. 
Quite a few items in swingall.jar are flagged as "not beans" and
JBuilder has to honor that setting.

You may be disappointed re: dragging and dropping JDesktopPane.  It
(like JInternalFrame) was never intended/designed for use in a RAD
environment.  It's one of many JFC items that are best handled "in
code", which is how JFC was designed.

We're working with Javasoft to impress upon them the desires of many
people to have visually designable items in any IDE <g>.

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