Hi David,

thank you for your answer. Your solution would be o.k. for me. Please send me your source code patch to test it with my source. Thanks.

Regards, Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Rather I would not add the "getter" method directly to the Widget class. Instead I would like to add a new static method: javax.swing.border.Border BorderSupport.getSwingBorder(org.netbeans.api.visual.border.Border )

This method would return the Swing-border if the input parameter is a wrapper-border created by: BorderFactory.createSwingBorder or Widget.setBorder(javax.swing.border.Border) method.

Let me know if the proposed API is ok for you. If so, I will enter an API change issue on "graph" module. Unfortunately I have to postpone all changes to June 2007 - right now I do not have enough time to go through the whole API-review process. If you would like to have the API change as soon as possible then I can immediately send you the patch of sources of the "graph/lib" module. The change is really simple (upto 10 lines including javadoc).

Regards, David
