Thank you for your response and sorry about the import statements. I'm getting too used to using IntelliJ I'm afraid. There all I need to do is press ALT-ENTER, and import are automatically added.
kind regards,
Wim

Subject: Re: weird focus behaviour with 2 JTextArea's
Hi Wim,
The same also happens with the second JTextArea if you press
Shift-Tab from the button. And for the same reasons. Change these
two lines in the MyTextArea constructor from "true" to "false":
forwardFocusTraversalKeys.add(
AWTKeyStroke.getAWTKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0, true ) );
...
backwardFocusTraversalKeys.add(
AWTKeyStroke.getAWTKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, InputEvent.SHIFT_DOWN_MASK, true ) );
to
forwardFocusTraversalKeys.add(
AWTKeyStroke.getAWTKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0, false ) );
...
backwardFocusTraversalKeys.add(
AWTKeyStroke.getAWTKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, InputEvent.SHIFT_DOWN_MASK, false ) );
It's also helpful and likely to draw more response if you send
compilable code. That includes import statements. Best,
Joe Sam
