Thanks you!

I did have a problem with a customized tree that was built with values 
from a DB. I solved it with an "empty" constructor call in jbInit and 
then build the tree on another trigger. I also realized that if fields 
in jbInit are placed in proper order (i.e. red beans in the end) the 
rest of the fields are looking fine.

Now, after I fixed the tree-red bean, I ended up in another "issue". It 
is not a problem but is as follow:
- I have my custom tree in its own panel as part of a lot of other 
fields and graphs etc.
- My listener for the tree gives me what I need but to be able to update 
the fields outside the tree panel I have to make all of them static.
- Now I have all fields show up as red beans and all panels and 
everything is marked static.

Question: Is there a way to go from a static environment to a non-static 
environment. Can I place the tree-listener outside its own object and 
then trigger everything within the "main" panel.
