JDK-7027486 - JPopupMenu doesn't take window shape into account
Description
See CR 7027486. The issue is that JPopupMenu is clipped with its parent JFrame's shape. Invoking JPopupMenu.setLightWeightPopupEnabled(false) seems to be a possible workaround. However, it doesn't work. As well as JPopupMenu.setDefaultLightWeightPopupEnabled(false).
Comments
EVALUATION JPopupMenu.setLightWeightPopupEnabled works as expected When it is disabled and a popup fits the window's bounds the medium weight popups are in use, they are affected by the window's shape exactly how the lightweight popups do. Closed as not a bug.
