JPopupMenu Consecutive Clicks

[PrinceSendai]

Hello.

1. I have two JTree's, side by side.

2. Both JTrees have a JPopupMenu associated with them.

3. I right click on a node in the JTree1, the jpopupmenu appears.

4. I left click on a node in JTree2.


In theory, if I left click on a node in JTree2, it should select the node.


5. The jpopupmenu disappears, but no node is selected. In fact, the click event is never fired in JTree2.




In other words, THE CLICK EVENT IS NOT FIRING WHILE THE POPUPMENU IS ACTIVATED. The click merely deactivates the popup menu, but the click event on the tree is never fired.


Please help me if you know why this is, and how to solve this. Is this a bug?



Thanks so much.

I have found the solution.


UIManager.put("PopupMenu.consumeEventOnClose", Boolean.FALSE);

Yes, this was a bug.

I found the bug explanation here, if anyone is interested. Apparently mousePressed() is not fired when the JPopupMenu is visible.


Bug ID: 6753637 Windows LNF prevents mousePressed() from being called when JPopupMenuvisible
