Hi,
is it possible to change argument type of method BaseInputControl.setLinkedLabel(LabelControl linkedLabel)
from LabelControl to JLabel?
I see that linkedLabel returns only text value via getText() method, which is inherited from JLabel.
This change would be very useful for some layouts (for example JGoodies FormLayout).
Thanks in advance
Jacek

    This is a problem: by forcing setLinkedLabel to accept LabelControl only, the UI designer of the IDE can automatically filter components which satisfy this type. I don't wanna change this feature, cause I think it's helpful.
    Can you provide more details about your exact need? Maybe it's possible to by-pass your problem by acting at LabelControl level?!?
