I have been browsing the class library and trying all sorts
of things, but cannot seem to get or make a Frame
that is just for an Applet (or AppletDisplayItem). It seems
that lots of the awt graphic objects require a Frame (well
at least the menuBar does.)
I also can't create a Window for the applet to put things into.
Basically I want to have an applet that looks exactly like
an application (say hotjava browser), complete with menu
bar, buttons ... everything. This would be used for HELP on the
things, maybe annimated so Duke walks over to the the right
menu button and pulls it down, or whatever..
`
So far it seems every applet developed is given a place to DRAW
and everyone draws with basic drawing capabilities. I want to
have all the high level widgets already developed for Hotjava
and use them by my applet. The applet class library being developed
by Johathan Payne seems to me to be re-inventing the capabilities
already developed for hotjava (eg. text windows, scrolling, etc).
Thanks.
