Yes, that is likely.  There are going to be some differences in the
environment when a component is running inside the UI Designer.  If
the component makes too many assumptions, it may fail.

You can define a proxy component that replaces the designed component.
Heavyweight components like JDialog are designed using proxies, since they
cannot be placed inside the Swing-based Designer.  I have never done this,
so I cannot give you much advice on how to do it.  And last I checked, the
documentation was pretty sparse.
