If this is a Swing "feature", then I'm not aware of a simple setting
somewhere (maybe someone else knows of one?). I do know that
DefaultCaret has a setUpdatePolicy method. You would have to get the
Caret from the JTextField, make sure it is a DefaultCaret, cast it to
DefaultCaret, and invoke setUpdatePolicy(DefaultCaret.NEVER_UPDATE).
Even then, I haven't tested this, so I'm not sure if it would have the
desired effect. Another approach would be to implement a
FormComponentInterceptor that automatically handles any JTextField that
is not enabled so that the caret it always placed at the beginning of
the field. See SelectAllFormComponentInterceptorFactory for an example
of what an interceptor looks like.
