Hi Mark-

Okay, thanks for letting us know.  I think there's still some
dust settling that needs to go on with Java, Java 3D and the
Mac.

That's the place.  There are also the idvusers and idvdevelopers
e-mail lists.

Unfortunately, I don't have a Mac to test this on at the moment.
This sounds like a Java bug, since it should just be using the
standard JFileChooser.  Can you send a screenshot of what the
widget looks like?  Also, can you resize the window to see if
an entry box appears?
