Re: Newbie question about Window.hide(): Workaround



Thanks to those who made suggestions regarding my problem with
Window.hide().

A simple workaround that solves the problem for me is to do
setEnabled(false) along with each hide(), and setEnabled(true) along
with each show(). (I only make those calls in one place each.)
Apparently, the code to recognize and dispatch mouseEvents checks for
enabled but not visible.

So far, I have not encountered any undesirable side effects from this
workaround.

More generally, subclasses of JFrame and JDialog could override hide()
and show() to include the disabling and enabling.
