Re: Performance problem with multiple displays

Hi Mathias,

I have noticed the grey plane problem with my own application occasionally
as well, under similar circumstances, and I suspect it is Java3D-related.
If you haven't already, I suggest you try changing the size of your displays,
instead of removing and adding them to the frame repeatedly.

So, instead of doing:
   remove(displayPanel);
try:
   displayPanel.setSize(1, 1);
and instead of:
   add(displayPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
try:
   displayPanel.setSize(w, h);
