To get live syntax checking, you need to change the default compile tool (or one of your own creation) to work "On Change", and the Tool Output to, "Highlight Errors/Warnings ONLY".

Sounds like a problem with Swing. What's your default resolution?

Thanks, I'll add it to the todo for the next micro release.
