[vtkusers] Mixing vtk with Swing

[Daniel.Zuidinga at rwth-aachen.de]

Hello vtk-users,

i use vtk with the java-wrappings and have the problem with the mixing of heavyweight awt and lightweight swing components (especially menus). The vtkpanel is always drawn on the top.

I think this is a general problem of mixing awt/swing which has nothing to do with vtk?

The current Java Version 1.6 solves the problem in case of "OpenGL-Swing integration" with JOGL's GLJPanel?:

Is there a solution for vtk? Can i implement a class such as "vtkGLJPanel" dervied from GLJPanel?

Or even exists any other (good) solution for my problem?

Thanks
Daniel
