I was trying to drag and drop a component "JDateChooser" on my JDialog but It wasn't working at all. All the others component works but not the JDateChooser.
The component is used from the "jcalendar-1.4" jar library.
My solution to this is to declare a JPanel where the component should be and add the component "JDatecChooser" in the JPanel.
private JPanel JPanelDateNaissance;
private JDateChooser JDateChooser1;
public JDialogInscription() {
JDateChooser1 = new JDateChooser();
JPanelDateNaissance.add(JDateChooser1);
setContentPane(contentPane);
setModal(true);
getRootPane().setDefaultButton(buttonOK);
....
Hope this will be useful !
