Hi,
I am new to ULC and am having some problems with my first few attempts to
check if ULC will work for my planned software. I need to use paintComponent
as in the basic 'MyPanel' example below. I have searched the old posts
here and found an example that uses 'UiJPanel' that would seem to be an
option, however I can't find the '*import* com.ulcjava.base.client.UiJPanel'.
Can somebody please point me in the right direction. Is there a ULC
substitute for JPanel ?? If not is there any examples as to how I go about
painting a grid or likewise that would help me get started.
Thank you for any help.

setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.black));

return new Dimension(250,200);
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
// Draw Text

}
