FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.6.0"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b105)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.6.0-b105, mixed mode)


ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2.0

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I have included the code in the box below. The bug happens when on appletViwer I click on maximize button on the upper right corner hand of the screen next to X and then click on the maximize button again to resize the appletViewer back its initial state. The bug is; some textboxes become garbled. Actually, I still see textboxes. But, on the right border of some textboxes I see garbled extra textboxes. There is no problems when applet is accessed through Internet Explorer browser.


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
- Run the test case
- Maximize the window
- Reduce window to original size & see that some compenets are not painted correctly.
- Change the size of the window by dragging the windows corner & realize the components show somtimes.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
