Rick, the problem with your ModalWindow is that it "waits" the AWT event dispatch thread without providing a replacement event pump - that's what Dialog does. All gui painting stops after your line: if( visible ) myMutex.wait(); Try putting some components on your parent JFrame and invoke your ModalWindow. Now iconify and restore your parent and you will see the problem.
