ADDITIONAL OPERATING SYSTEMS :
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When starting Java Applications using JWS, JWS places a toolbar
with the words, "Java Web Start Window" at the top of the frame
(where the normal menu bar should be). This is incorrect. On
Win32 (Windows 2000) the "Java Web Start Window" toolbar is at the
bottom (correct).
This is confusing in Linux because the menubar should be at the
top, not the JWS notification toolbar. The JWS notification
toolbar should be at the bottom of the JFrame, just like in
Windows 2000.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
1.View the Military Game JWS example in Windows 2000
2.View the Military Game JWS example in Linux
3.See that the text "Java Web Start Window" is in the wrong place
in Linux.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
the text "Java Web Start Window" is in the wrong place in Linux and Solaris
(it's at the top). It needs to be at the bottom, like Windows
2000.
This bug can be reproduced always.
