Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0 Beta 3)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0 Beta 3, mixed mode)
STEPS TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM
==============================
1. Use the Class Choice to create a drop down box
2. Attach action Item to the drop down Items.
3. Drop down the Choice box(Try for more than 2 times).
4. The Drop down box will spring up every time it is dropped down.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The repaint issue in 1.4.1 Beta 3 may give the illusion as
though the Menu is dropped down. But actually it springs up every second or
third time it is dropped down.
