Table keyboard focus problem

Question

Hi,
I would like to edit a table cell with the keyboard. But I noticed that the table don't lose the focus when
I use the spacebar to edit the cell. Also the cell don't receive the prompt. Seems to me like a Bug.
What can be done ?
regards,
Lucian

In your MyEditor Class you define a textfield.... then you add another textfield in your editor panel
class MyEditor extends AbstractCellEditor
implements TableCellEditor
private JComponent myEditorPanel;
private JTextField myTextField;
MyEditor()
myEditorPanel = new MyEditorPanel();
myTextField = new JTextField();
public Object getCellEditorValue()
return null;
public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(
JTable table, Object value,
oolean isSelected,
int
row, int column )
return myEditorPanel; // Problems...
return myTextField; // Keyboard and focus as
expected
class MyEditorPanel extends JPanel
JTextField tf;
MyEditorPanel()
setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
tf = new JTextField();
add( tf, BorderLayout.CENTER );
add( new JButton( "edit" ), BorderLayout.EAST );
Add an action listener to both the textfield and the button and ensure that editingStopped() is called when the user presses enter
