Java3D and JOGL sharing same canvas?
I am new to JOGL having come from a C background with OpenGL. I am prototyping an application on OS X which currently uses JOGL. For some of the components, I am planning to use Java3D to leverage it's scenegraph capabilities. I am a little unsure if JOGL and Java3D are meant to coexists and sharing the same drawing canvas. I am using JOGL with Java2D (text rendering and such). Ultimately, the application may have JOGL/Java2D and Java3D. I read somewhere that on OS X, Java3D uses JOGL Can anyone shed some light on the integration of Java3D with JOGL? Are they designed to coexists, architecturally? — 

Continuing a class in another .Java file
I have a fairly simple problem. I have a class; class A, which contains all the useful methods and variables for my application. I want to write a series of classes that has direct access to these methods and variables. I solved this by using nested classes. Now, because of the massive volume of nested classes, I am looking for a way to separate this class into different .java files. As of yet, there is no practical reason for needing to do this; I want to separate the code into other files for no other reason than neatness. It doesn't matter if this implemented at the compile level or at run time, just as long as I can break up my code into convenient .java files. — 

Re: Painting effect with the JXLayer
There are really a lot of possibilities for JXLayer transitions, animation, quick component decoration the latest idea is - a visual effect for a FormattedTextField with invalid data in it when a textField shows a little lock in the right down corner of a component as a sign that the data is invalid  —
