windowbuilder add jpopupmenu weak point

[Peter Cheung]

hi all, in windowbuilder, i can add jpopupmenu on top of components only. But in Jigloo, I can add a stadnalone jpopmenu, which mean the jpopupmenu is not related to any component. 

The reason i do that is because, i want to decide which jpopupmenu to show in runtime. But I just can't design my jpopupmenu in windowbuilder. Windowbuilder force me to draw jpopupmenu on component :-(

thanks

First, this is way off topic for this forum. You should post WindowBuilder questions/comments to the WindowBuilder forum.

Second, the behavior you describe in WindowBuilder is quite intentional (i.e., not allowing you to create loose components that aren't part of the component hierarchy).

Third, WindowBuilder is an Eclipse.org open source project, so you can enter a feature request in the Eclipse Bugzilla (Tools > WindowBuilder) and, even better, submit a patch to allow the behavior you want.
