Question regard to the Design window

[Helloworld]

Trying to use this GUI builder. Everything was going well. Perhaps I use too much the NICE "preview/test" icon, now everytime I add a new container or contorls or change the properties; out pops the "preview/test" of the frame I made and it closes right alway, strange? did I enable it by accident?

Depending on the platform you are using, that is expected. It should not happen under Windows.

Yes I am using Windows 2000.

I add the following code at end of initialize()
frame.setExtendedState(frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
without the code above I no longer have the "Pop" up whenever I modify GUI. I knew it was something I did :p

have a happy holiday coding

The pop up happen so often I had to found a work around; My work around is to create another java file and copy the code over. Not sure why this happen to me. And it only happen to that one file.

Interesting. If this happens with only a single file, can you post a test case?

thx Eric for the fast fast reply. I now realize when I add the following code at end of initialize() {

//rest of the code.
frame.setExtendedState(frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
}
I was trying to not allow user to resize, that was when I realize the newly added code probably did something to the GUI editor.
