      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When opening a JComboBox component, it briefly shows the contents of the previously opened JComboBox.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      The best way to see this is to capture a video of the interaction (CMD+SHIFT+5), spend 10-15 seconds cycling through the JComboBox components, then step through the video frame by frame using the right and left arrow keys.

      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      EXPECTED -
      When opening a JComboBox, I'd expect to see the contents of that specific list, with no rendering artifacts.
      ACTUAL -
      This effect is extremely subtle, but reasonably consistent; most of the time, opening the JComboBox very briefly flashes the contents of the previously opened list before switching over to the correct list.
