<Swing Dev> JdesktopPane and JsplitPane

[Dhimant Patel]

Hi,
I need an advise on using both together. I started with the idea of having
Jsplitpane on my main frame and setting its left pane to hold all control
interface items like combobox for selection. Then thought of using
jdesktoppane with internal panes for MDI type interface.  Now I am able to
create internal frames but minimized frames disappears and couldn't keep
them inside the desktop pane. Now I'm thinking may be they just disappears
behind my splitpane.
So basically I need to know if I'm on the wrong start here. Can I use
jdesktoppane as my rightside container on splitpane ?
It's very frustrating as I'm not a java developer and kind of problems I
face using swing.
Thanks for guidance.
