A great enhancement to this widget set would be a component that has a  glass 
icon on the left of 
the input field (like the os x style search box) and that has the same 
rendering on all platforms

Something like the attached image

Hi, I think i found a way to do this using Java itself:

textField.putClientProperty("JTextField.variant", "search") 

this should do exactly what you want. I found it in a really 
useful article by apple on how to make java mac-like controls 
(http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2007/tn2196.html)

Hope it's helpful, James

Hi James,

Apple's client property will on work on a Mac.
