i need to create a label floating just below the mouse cursor when a mouseDragged event listener launches. it must be like the ones color pickers have. i can create a simple one but the thing is it can not be viewed on top of a jtree inside a jScrollPane. it just floats beneath it.
Thanks.

thanks but i need it with a drag and drop event so it can float between panels.
infact the thing i need to do is to drag a jTree node to another jTextArea and drop. but while dragging i need an info-panel to display selected node's bounded data in a database and float with mouse until dropped. it is important for me to show info-panel while dragging between panels or other JFrame components.
Thanx
