The GraphicsTest demo displays a number of shapes, and allows the user to
choose which shapes. It looks like the shapes are being clipped on the
top, as if the button bar were being drawn over them. If the button bar is
moved from "North" to "South" there is no longer any clipping. I'm
wondering if anyone else has noticed this, and ascertained what exactly is
causing it. As far as I can tell, the coordinates for the button bar and
the panel holding the shapes are correct, leading me to believe the problem
is not with the layout object. I'm particularly puzzled because it is not
at all clear how the Panel object draws its children - there is a
paintComponents call in the Container object, but it is not called from any
of the java code. So I'm wondering if this behavior is being caused by one
of those mystery peer objects. Can anyone tell?
