Hello all, I have an applet that is rather busy as far as input data required and I a looking for ways to reduce the clutter. You can see his applet at http://www.fluidedesign.com/applets.htm#applets16 I thought of putting some related data together (i.e fluid properties) on a small panel, when to mouse rolls over the panel it expands it revealing the textboxes in their normal size. Is this feasible, any ideas how to go about it? Thanks Jacques

Well, I've tried it and it works, just need to use the mouseEntered and mouseExited methods to resize the panel. Only problem I can foresee is if you're editing a jText and you leave the panel before pressing enter, your program may not have access to the new value, is that correct? Is there someway to force the enter?

One ting I have noticed is that te expanded jPanel does not cover over the background, there must be a way to make the jpanel opaque.
