At first, I tried to follow the tutorial of David Gallardo in Build GUIs
with the Eclipse Visual Editor project.
I describe here the strange things that occurred to me while doing this.
1.) When I created e new Visual Class from Swing-Frame 2 windows opened
automatically out of my Eclipse. A "JFrame"-called-window that seems to
show a kind of live-view of my JFrame and a small plain
"FreeFormComponentsHostDialog"-called-window. Both cannot be closed.
2.) I couldn't find a Stop Round Tripping button that should turn off the
synchonization of the editor and the visual-view.
3.) Adding an actionPerformed to my Checkbox didn't work via right mouse
click on the widget because there was no submenu of events but it worked
via right click in the JavaBean-View.
I'm using VE 1.0 with Eclipse 3.0.1 on Suse-Linux 9.1/KDE3.2
regards

Ah, I found out, the break-button is the stop round-ripping button.
thanks

Probably the Build GUIs doc is downlevel slightly because we just
released the final version. By the way, there is a tutorial in the Help
of Eclipse on using the VE too.

Ignore these. They are required. We actually run live code to get the
windows so that we can get a copy of them to put them on the visual
surface. That is why they can't be closed; if they were closed the
editor would no longer work.

The Stop Roundtripping button has been moved and is now on the toolbar
and no longer on the status bar.

It should of showed up on the checkbox on the visual surface. Are you
sure you had the check box selected?

Hm, is it the button with the icon where only one Bean is shown? (Between
"choose bean" and "show customize layout window")
This button is always deactivated, but synchronization is on.

I was pretty shure I had selected the checkbox. I also tried to get the
event-submenu of my Label.
But now, after restarting Eclipse it is there.
