iavaDraw is optimized for the JDK 1.1.x final from sun microsystems. We support the JDK 1.1.x moment.
Please consider iavaDraw will not run properly with older versions of JDK (such 1.0, 1.02. 1.1betas). 

We think it is the best iavaDraw ever. We thank all developers which help us with their reports and feedback to make iavaDraw better and better. Without your help, iavaDraw wouldn't be at the point it is at the moment. 

The new major feature in this version is the improved GUI builder interface, which is able to support LayoutManagers now. Check out the whatsnew.txt, to see more additions.

All the best for you and your software,
