GUI Problem -- Help need Urgently

[tlohan]

Hi,

I have a GUI that when using Java1.2 worked perfectly. Recently we upgraded to Java1.3 and for some reason the GUI is not functioning properly.

Under Java1.2 when the GUI initialised the screen appeared as follows:

|----------------------------------------------------|
|| No Profile |-------------------------------------|
|| |-------------------------------------|
|| |-------------------------------------|

The |------------------------------| is a grey panel.

Under Java1.3 the GUI appears as:

|----------------------------------------------|
|| No Profile |
|| |
|| |


The GUI code is:

private void init() {
JPanel p = getContentPanel();
p.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());

profilePanels = createProfilePanels();

profileTree = new ProfileTree(profilePanels);
profileTree.addTreeSelectionListener(new OnProfileKeySelection());

profileList.addListSelectionListener(new OnProfileKeySelection());

JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(profileTree) {
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
Dimension d = super.getPreferredSize();
d.width = 150;
return d;
}
};

tableDlg = new TableDialog(ADCApp.findParentFrame(this));

rightPanel.setLayout(cardLayout);
rightPanel.add("Blank", new JPanel());
for(int i = 0; i < profilePanels.length; ++i) {
rightPanel.add(profilePanels.toString(), profilePanels);
}

splitPane.setLeftComponent(scroll);
splitPane.setRightComponent(rightPanel);
splitPane.setBorder(null);

p.add(splitPane, new GridBagConstraints2(0, 2, 3, 1,
100.0, 100.0, GridBagConstraints.WEST, GridBagConstraints.BOTH,
new Insets(5, 0, 0, 0), 1, 1));
}
}


On initialisation I need the grey panel to appear.
Any ideas why it is not.

Cheers.

As a suggestion, stick away from using GridBagLayout!

It's a real awquard one to use and the others tend to do the job well enough!
