Hello,

I just ran across a discussion of this very issue in the book, "Graphic Java
Mastering the JFC VOlume II: Swing" -3rd Edition, from Sun Microsystems
Press, on page 1338.  They have a JTree that has a check box in the node,
instead of the radio button you are using.  Here is the relevant paragraph:
(Follows a section on DefaultTreeCellRenderer)

"It should be noted that the check box rendered by the custom renderer
cannot be manipulated because renderers use components as a stamp to render
cells. In other words, the check box is not actually added to the tree and
therefore cannot be selected or deselected.  If the check box is to be
manipulated, the tree must be fitted with a custom editor, as illustrated in
"rendering and Editing: A Case Study" on page 1354. "

I would recommend getting this excellent book to help you work out the
problem. It has a very lengthy chapter on JTrees.

Hope this helps!
Tamy
