Re: TextField problem in Mac, it keeps selecting the text

I can understand that Mac behaves in certain ways but I do not believe that the portability of Java should have been scarified! We Java programmers expect JVM to behave exactly the same in different operating systems. If you pick and choose, you will confuse us and discourage us from porting our application to Mac because of the extra coding involved. As insignificant as this issue may seem it rendered my entire product useless with tons of complains from my Mac users.


Then use a cross-platform look-and-feel. I believe that the whole point of look-and-feels (looks-and-feel? looks-and-feels?) is to allow platform-specific behaviors, such as what is being demonstrated for Aqua.

Of course, if the cross-platform look-and-feel behaves the same way, then that would be a bug.
