JTree cell renderer/editor question

Posted by Matt Senecal on October 02, 2000 at 1:45 PM

I created a JTree that contains a custom object ("EditorWindow", that extends JPanel) at each node. To do this I had to create a custom TreeCellRenderer. The problem I'm having is that while I can add and remove nodes OK, components (JTextFields, etc) that I dynamically add to the individual EditorWindows do not appear in the GUI. I've checked in software, and an enumeration of all components that a given EditorWindow contains confirms that the components were added, but aren't being displayed. I'm thinking that this is a problem with my TreeCellRenderer, but I have absolutely no idea what to do. Can someone help me out?

Thanks!
