I have a JTable with row selection enabled. Before today, my desired functionality was for double-clicking on any given row to open up a new window. And before today, that worked just fine.

I’ve just added a column of JCheckBoxes to the table. Selecting and deselecting individual checkboxes in the new column works fine, in general. However, if I select a checkbox and quickly deselect it, the table interprets my actions as a double-click on the checkbox’s row, which is not what I want.

Is there a way to disable the double-clicking behavior for just the checkboxes, but keeping row selection enabled otherwise? If not, how about disabling the behavior for just one column of a table? If so, how?

    Use the table.columnAtPoint(…) method to ignore double clicks on the columm with the checkbox.
