Dependency between 2 diff JInternalFrame

Question

Hi
how can i add dependency between 2 diff JinternalFrames a + b.
Both JInternalFrames resides on the same JFrame.
I want to implement the following functionality:
when a is moving, i want b to be moved within it.
b can move by its own (by mouse dragging) with no dependency on a
Does someone have an idea how to do that?
Thanks

Both JInternalFrames resides on the same JFrame.I certainly hope they are in a JDesktopPane.

Does someone have an idea how to do that?Take a look at ComponentListener#componentMoved. You'll want to add a ComponentListener to a and cache its location, then move b by the same offset each time a is moved.
If you can't get your head around that, post your best efforts in the form of an [url http://mindprod.com/jgloss/sscce.html]SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable) example and indicate the specific problem.
