I am doing Java GUI Swing programming for a class project, using Visual Editor VE. I have no problem with JLabel and JTextBox by dragging these components from the Palette to the Design canvas, do my typical editing and test run the application as Java Bean. The project runs well with the JLabels and JTextBox instances in the Java Virtual Machine.

However when I experiment with JComboBox, which does require me to include the drop down selections in a String Array, the JComboBox will also work well. The only problem I have is the JComboBox object will not appear again on the design canvas. But it is there when you run it.
Without the JComboBox apear in the design canvas, it is difficult for me to make visual modification such as to line up these objects.

Can anybody shed some light in this problem? Your help is greatly appreciated.
