A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
When a JDialog is created and set to visible there is a flicker. First JDialog background paints. Then contents paint. For example:

newDialog = new JDialog();
newDialog.setModal(true);
newDialog.setSize(new Dimension(600,400));
newDialog.setBackground(Color.red);
JPanel greenPanel = new JPanel();
greenPanel.setBackground(Color.green);
newDialog.getContentPane().add(greenPanel);

After you set the newDialog to visible you see the red first, then green. I would expect that the entire dialog would be painted and then final result is displayed. Instead we see the empty frame first. Thus resulting in a flicker.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :

newDialog = new JDialog();
newDialog.setModal(true);
newDialog.setSize(new Dimension(600,400));

After you set the newDialog to visible you see the red first, then green. I would expect that the entire dialog would be painted and then final result is displayed. Instead we see the empty frame first. Thus resulting in a flicker.


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
I would expect that the entire dialog would be painted and then final result is displayed.

ACTUAL -
After you set the newDialog to visible you see the red first, then green. I would expect that the entire dialog would be painted and then final result is displayed. Instead we see the empty frame first. Thus resulting in a flicker.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
