Java pull-down menu

Expand Post »
Good morning, all!

I have a Java project that is complete, but it's not due for another week. I've been poking around trying to "spruce it up" a little with maybe a pull-down menu for one of the options.

The examples I've found online all deal with web development. Will that work in this instance? If not, does anyone have a good starting place where I can teach myself how to implement these? I'm using the NetBeans IDE if that makes any difference.

Thanks for much!

- Jim

Re: Java pull-down menu
Close but not quite -

I guess the best way I can describe it would be the drop-down menu like when you choose what credit card you will pay with on various websites. Something I can move around, and position myself in the code vs actually being stuck to the top.

I think you're talking about a combo box: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutor.../combobox.html
