    It might be a good idea to post a small, compilable, example which illustrates the problem. (for instance you don't need the list cell renderer unless it contributes to the problem). And say what it means for the combobox to not be displayed "properly".

    Thank you for your reply!!..
    My problem is JComboBox is not working as i required, like i need to select some data and it should be focus on that list.
    JComboBox domainNamesBox = new JComboBox();
    domainNamesBox.setModel(new DefaultComboBoxModel(new String[] {"a", "b", "c", "d"}));
    //Arrange the above GUI components to GroupLayout...
    GroupLayout gl_contentPane = new GroupLayout(contentPane);
    gl_contentPane.setHorizontalGroup(
    gl_contentPane.createParallelGroup(Alignment.TRAIL ING)
    .addGroup(gl_contentPane.createSequentialGroup()
    .addContainerGap()
    .addGroup(gl_contentPane.createParallelGroup(Align ment.TRAILING, false)
    .addComponent(lblDomainName, GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, Short.MAX_VALUE)
    .addGap(18)
    .addGroup(gl_contentPane.createParallelGroup(Align ment.LEADING)
    .addComponent(domainNamesBox, org.jdesktop.layout.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, 236, Short.MAX_VALUE)
    .addGap(41))))
    );
    gl_contentPane.setVerticalGroup(
    gl_contentPane.createParallelGroup(Alignment.TRAIL ING)
    .addGroup(gl_contentPane.createSequentialGroup()
    .addContainerGap(GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, Short.MAX_VALUE)
    .addGroup(gl_contentPane.createParallelGroup(Align ment.TRAILING)
    .addComponent(domainNamesBox, org.jdesktop.layout.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE, org.jdesktop.layout.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, org.jdesktop.layout.GroupLayout.PREFERRED_SIZE)
    .addComponent(lblDomainName))
    .addPreferredGap(ComponentPlacement.RELATED)
    .addContainerGap())
    );

    If you are still having problems with this consider my suggestion of posting a SSCCE and a description of what the problem is: ie how the output or other behaviour of the program differs from your intentions.

    It's not my (vain) intention to tell you how to post. But, for my part, I need code, not images. And some elaboration about what "not displaying properly" means.
