Hello,

Does swing offer that type of component out of the box? I'm not sure what it is called (so my subject description is the best I can do) but I've seen these buttons on Microsoft Outlook (create either a new Mail message or Calendar entry). Also I've seen them on Thunderbird.

Attached is from MS Outlook.

We're using JDK 1.6.0_16+ deploying on a Windows or Redhat box.

Thanks,
Jim
