Description Geertjan Wielenga 2005-09-07 12:29:03 UTC 
-- Anagram Game needs to be updated to use Matisse.
-- GridBagLayout has strange effect in Matisse, should be backward compatible.

This is a blocker for the "NetBeans IDE 5.0 Quick Start Guide for Web Service
Clients".
Comment 1 Geertjan Wielenga 2005-09-07 12:30:25 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Anagram Game in a recent build.
2. Try to move one of the buttons.
3. Weird things happen on the screen.

This is not problem of Anagram Game. It's problem of moving components inside
non-natural layout managers. Most visible is the problem with GridBagLayout.

Steps to reproduce:
1) Create JFrame, set GridBagLayout
2) Put some componetns inside the Frame
3) Try to move with them
Really weird things happen.

Increasing prio to P1, since I consoder it as Beta Stopper.

IMO example provided by NetBeans should be using standard JDK classes, not some
"experimetal stuff".
