Hi there, I've been playing with the VE and I'm very impressed.
I've got a frame to which I've added a JMenuBar, and I've added a few
JMenu's but I'm having no luck adding JMenuItems. I saw the post about
using add bean, but I've tried building from beans, and the behaviour's
the same.
Am I doing something daft? I can manually add code, and the menu works
fine. I've been dropping the jMenuItems elsewhere then fixing the code
(moving add calls), and the result's fine.
And one final plea. Could anyone reccomend a good site or book that would
explain the java/swing way of doing things? The creations of objects per
command and the construction methods etc. I'm from C++/MFC land, (more C++
than MFC) so I guess I'm looking for a guide to best practices before I do
too much hacking.
Thanks for your time.
Pete

Excellent.
I'll get on with reading and coding now.
Thanks!

You can drop/edit/reorder JMenuItems by dropping them in the Java Beans
View hiearchy on top of the JMenu. This of course also works with any
other type of bean as well.
Sun's Swing tutorial is an excellent resource for getting started in all
things Swing. You can find it here:
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/TOC.html
Good luck,
- Jeff
