Not sure if this is the right group, but here goes...
In a Java class that I've been taking this semester, we've been using beans
to create GUI components for software project, using JBuilder. It's been a
simple matter of dragging and dropping the needed components from the
JBuilder palette to the bean, and writing the required code.
I've tried doing the same thing using Netbeans 5. I opened a new project,
created a main class and a frame to put my beans onto. Then I created a new
bean, and tried plopping a JLabel onto it. Nothing showed up. The label
was listed in the Inspector window, so I'm guessing it's in there
somewhere... I'm obviously missing something.
