Re: Animated icon for a TopComponent

Hi,

thats an interesting question. Some years ago I have tried to find the code 
which displays an icon on different position in nebeans platform components but 
I were not successful. Good luck and I am also interested in a feature which 
makes it possible to show animated icons at any position in an netbeans app, 
e.g. also in toolbars.

best regards
Oliver
