Re: How to refresh UI immediately?

I have a combobox with an ActionListener. When you select an item, it
fires off a process that can take a few seconds to execute. I have
found that when you click your selection, it fires the process but
does not immediately close the combo box. That is, it waits until the
process is done running before closing the combobox.

Is there a way to change this behavior? I would like to close the
combobox immediately after an item in it is selected and then fire off
the process.

Thanks,

Are you running this process on the EDT? If you are, don't and it should improve.
