Description ytn01 2011-11-22 15:55:15 UTC 
Overview:
GUI design previews doesn't always function fully for some look and feels, more specifically on components added by dragging from the "File" window.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new JPanel or other Swing container, give it a name & add several items on it like checkboxs, radiobuttons, toggle buttons...
2. Create a new JFrame form, give it a name & after it's created, drag components on it.
3. Go to the "File" view of the project and drag the "JPanel" file crated on step 1 onto the designer area of the JFrame created on step 2.
4. Save changes & preview the JFrame in various look and feels,... for me, checkboxs & radio buttons part of the JFrame doesn't function on the preview, especially when they are contained in a tabbed pane & in metal feel.

Expected Results:
All components inside the previewed form should function fully.
