JInternalFrames + JSliders

[Marie Henry]

I am currently working on an application that uses JInternalFrames with JSliders. However, when I try to move a slider on an unselected frame by clicking and dragging it, it only selects the frame and then I must click again to use the slider.
To check this behavior I took some simple JInternalFrame code off the java.sun site and added JSliders to two InternalFrames. The code is included below. To witness this behavior, click on "InternalFrame #1" and then on "InternalFrame#2." Then try to move the slider on InternalFrame#1 by clicking and dragging the slider head. The frame will become selected but the slider will not move until you click on it again.
Just as a note this does not happen with all components...any type of AbstractButton seems to work fine in the situations of switching back and forth between frames.
Has anyone encountered this behavior before? Is there some kind of a workaround? Am I not noticing something?
Thanks in advance,
Marie
