Stand By Soft, Ltd. just released Java Date Picker 3.1, a suite of professional date components for Swing. In the new version, the tutorial groups together all product information (changes, installation notes, etc) to make it more accessible.

The dates available for selection can be restricted according to a specified pattern. Users can also do single or multiple date selection. So far, the available components are a one month calendar, a date time field and an editable date picker.

The components can be internationalized, have support for mouse and keyboard and they can be used with any look and feel (Metal, Motif, Windows, Aqua and custom ones).

This version adds new features and fixes bugs at customers' request:

* Improved the tutorial to be the main source of information about Java Date Picker.

* Added calendar grid customization and status bar visibility control.
* Improved JMonthView to fill all the space when resized.
* Restructured the demo application. It is explained entirely by the tutorial.
* Bug fixes.
