<div dir="ltr">Michael's idea could solve the problem if it's about more than just traversing, it needs to set rules for allowing a node to serve only 1 logical role (or 1 role type, like clip and graphic?) at the same time. In any case, these rules need to be decided upon before starting to work on anything. I can do a quick fix for now that can be reverted later if needed. From what I gather, I will need to add a graphicsParent field like clipParent does.<br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Dec 1, 2022 at 8:47 PM Nir Lisker <<a href="mailto:nlisker@gmail.com">nlisker@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">By the way, these issues are caused by this inconsistent behavior (they are probably duplicates):<div><br></div><div><a href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8209017" target="_blank">https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8209017</a><br></div><div><a href="https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8190331" target="_blank">https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8190331</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>The graphic of the checkbox of a CheckBoxTreeItem is not set correctly on the new CheckBox that is provided with the cell when virtual flow switches it.

Creating a separate "document graph" (or "logical graph") sounds like an <br>
interesting idea, but it would bring its own set of challenges. And it <br>
wouldn't directly solve this case anyway.<br>

The Skin ultimately determines if it adds the graphic as child, which may be delayed or may even be disabled (content display property is set to showing TEXT only).<br>
