I can't tell what is wrong without having the sources. Can you attach your project here, or send it to me?

I see. This is in fact bug 192507, already fixed. You get the fix if you download a daily build of current NB 7.0, or wait for Beta 2.

If you want to stay with your current version (6.9), try to avoid using JLayeredPane (do you really need it in your app - instead of using just plain JPanel?). If you need it, you have to set the Height layout property to some specific number instead of "Default". Or consider to move all the components into a JPanel with null layout and then place this panel into the layered pane.
