Hi, my name is Ron Rowan and I am a newer Java programmer out in Circle Pines, MN.  I am currently using JBuilder3 for my IDE.  I was hoping you could help me with a question I have regarding using the "design mode" for a class in JBuilder3.  
When I create my first class, I put a jPanel on it then some some JButtons and then a JList.  In "design mode", I see the panel with the jButtons and jList on it.  My problem comes when I try to derive from this class.  When I derive from it and try to add another button to it in "design mode", I don't get the previously created jPanel, jButtons and jList which should be inherited from my first class.  I have tried doing this with several different classes and I get the same results.  In my derived class, I have tried calling the super() command in the constructor and/or also calling the super.jbInit() command in jbInit() among other things.  Is this a bug in JBuilder3?  Is this something that has been known for a while (I would think so)?  Is there a workaround?  Am I just doing something wrong?  I really don't feel I am though!!!

If you know what I can do so I can derive a class from another class and see the parent's components and my newly added components from my derived class through the "design mode", please let me know how specifically.

If you feel you can't answer this question properly but you know someone who may, please forward this e-mail to them.

Thanks Much for your time, effort and expertise.
