I have noticed that the JFileChooser dialog is really bad at

detecting double clicks. Does anyone else see poor performance

with this dialog? Does anyone know a vendor who sells a

good file chooser?


The problem I see is intermittent. Sometimes it seems to

work but other times it just won't let me open a folder

for anything.

I don't know what "Filechooser" version you are using. I have not yet migrated to "Java 2". The application project I'm working with freezes me at

JDK 1.1.6 (as of yet Bently MicroStationJ only uses JDK 1.1.6 and I can't find anything about them migrating to Java 2.)


The "FileChooser" thing as of JDK 1.1.6 and 1.1.7 were "evolving" creations and worked different in each version. Maybe Java 2. has fixed it, but I know it wasn't a satisfactory Swing Component ANY Time I used it....
