This is with the up-to-the-minute JDK 1.1-AWT tree of 1/27/97.

If you remove and reinsert the MenuBar for a frame, the frame moves upwards.
I first saw this with the BeanBix and it was pretty confused until I
realized exactly what was happening. It only happens on Solaris.

I'm labelling this P1/S3, as it probably ought to get fixed for FCS!!!

Here is a simple test case that reproduces the problem. Start the following
program and then just click on the frame to see the effect.

KGH 1/27/97


import java.awt.*;
 
public class Garcon extends Frame {
 
    Garcon() {
        resize(200,200);
        setMenuBar();
        show();
    }
 
    void setMenuBar() {
        MenuBar bar = new MenuBar();
        bar.add(new Menu("foo"));
        setMenuBar(bar);
    }
 
    public boolean handleEvent(Event evt) {
        if (evt.id == Event.MOUSE_UP) {
            setMenuBar();
        }
        return false;
    }
 
    public static void main(String argv[]) {
        new Garcon();
    }
}
