Popmenu Problem

[news]

Hi All

I have created a JPopupMenu to popup at right mouse click on JTextPane. The
JPopupMenu has JCheckBoxMenuItem as its components. My problem is that the
popup menu is not showing up over the JTextPane. I am getting its view only
on click at the right end side of the pane. Click on other areas of the pane
is not showing the popup. It seems to be hidden under the pane.I tried
JPopupMenu.setLightweightpropertyEnabled(false), but even then i am not
getting it on top. Pls. do give me a solution.

Thanks in Advance.

Click on other areas of the pane
is not showing the popup.

If indeed the popup in hiding underneath this won't help. However, if
it is simply not showing up trapping the click in three places may
help:

private void hookRightClickListener()
{
MouseListener newRightClickListener = new MouseAdapter()
{
/**
* Invoked when a mouse button has been pressed on node in
the Jtree
*/
public void mousePressed( MouseEvent e )
{
handleRightClick( e );
}
/**
* Invoked when a mouse button has been released on node in
the Jtree
*/
public void mouseReleased( MouseEvent e )
{
handleRightClick( e );
}
/**

* Invoked when a mouse button has been clicked on node in the
Jtree
*/
public void mouseClickedd( MouseEvent e )
{
handleRightClick( e );
}
}; // end anonymous MouseAdapter

// attach the MouseAdapter to the jtree
jtree.addMouseListener( newRightClickListener );
} // end hookRightClickListener

private void handleRightClick( MouseEvent e )
{

// if not considered a popup trigger, e.g. right click, ignore
it
if ( ! e.isPopupTrigger() )
{
return;
}
...
rootpopup.show( e.getComponent(), e.getX(), e.getY() );
}

My guess is that the popupmenu appears in the upper left corner. Try
this in your mouselisteners mouseclicked method, where menu is the popup
menu, and thePane is your JTextPane:

if (e.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON3) {
Point p = e.getPoint();
menu.show(thePane, p.x, p.y);
}
