• Dear all,
  I have a JFrame in which I have add a toolbar inside a JPanel which is kept at the top of the JFrame. There are four buttons in the toolbar. If I click the last button, a JDialog should open in the remainig space of JFrame.
  
  But my problem is this JDialog is getting overlapped with the last two buttons and the last two buttons are above the JDialog if opened.
  
  I tried the following code but no use:
  
  <code>
  JDialog.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
  </code>
  
  how can i set rectify this problem?. Please help
  Thankyou

• 1. Try calling JDialog.toFront() when it is displayed.

  2. Sir,
     I have attached my page design in word document. There you can see the change Location dialog displayed back of the buttons in toolbar above.
     I have worked with all possible codes. There is something to do with lightweight component. I am not clear of the idea.
     
     So how can I rectify the problem.
     
     And I also when move my JDialog, the components are not displayed properly. After some times if i Click many times inside the JDialog then components are appearing one by one that too not proper.
     
     Please help me.
     
     Thanks

  4. You seem to have a dialog painting problem, which would account for the problems, but without seeing how the dialog has been implemented, it's not possible to say why.
     
     Have you followed the standard procedures for displaying dialogs? (see How to Make dialogs (http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/dialog.html)).
