jframe

Why JMenuBar is not place in the content pane?is there any reason or effects when make a java gui program especially when using jframe? Thanks As stated in Using Top-Level Containers article, the manu bar is managed by the Root Pane: Each top-level container relies on a reclusive intermediate container called the root pane. The root pane manages the content pane and the menu bar, along with a couple of other containers. You generally don't need to know about root panes to use Swing components. However, if you ever need to intercept mouse clicks or paint over multiple components, you should get

When I run the code, the added Example1 class to the JOptionPane (in Frame) should get keyInput and then change the y value of the player instance (in example1), but it doesn't work. Also, how would I be able to rotate the ship on its axis and then move in the direction its facing? Currently it moves in the direction its rotated towards, but it rotates on what seems the coordinates 0,0.

Here's a serious issue im having with a jFrame. I have one "Main Frame" where everything is done from, however i have another frame with a gif image in it (Loading, that circle that goes round and round), that is used as a splash screen saying "Processing, Please wait", however when i pull through that frame and my while loop runs, the frame goes blank and nothing displays until after the loop. I am assuming that this is due to the while loop consuming computer resources and "blocking" any other process from running. Please advise on what i should do. the code for declaring the new frame is

I am creating a "Store" program that basically can allow an employee to log in with a username and password I provide. After logging in, the employee can then see a "main menu" with four buttons: Sales Register, PLU Settings, Settings, and Logout. From this screen, the employee can proceed by clicking on any of the buttons to navigate to that screen. I do not want a new window to popup every time a button is clicked, but instead I want there to be some transition (or no transition) to go to the page that is clicked. So to give an example: When the employee starts the program, he/she is greeted

I am working on this game in Java, and I just rewrote all my window related code from being based on java.awt to javax.swing. Soon after, I realized that things were a bit more complicated now, and so i did some research and and found out how to draw things, how to set the size of a JFrame, etc. But for some reason, the size of my JFrame always goes 10 pixels beyond the size I've specified it to become. In this case, I wanted it to be 640 by 640 pixels. Here's my code: package chrononaut; import java.awt.*; import java.io.IOException; import javax.imageio.ImageIO; import javax.swing.*;

I'm learning Swing GUI design. One thing I haven't quite sorted out is how to add an add a Canvas to a specific location in a container. More specifically: I create a Canvas class that uses Paint method. Object of this class is added to a Panel. What I do not quite understand, is how and where it is added to a Panel. In Tkinter Canvas is a widget that contains only an image, but in Swing there is no similar widget (probably not the best word) added to the Frame that contains only Canvas object and nothing else. Sorry if it is too vague, I'm adding a self-contained code. Please ignore text

I'm making a program that is trying to animate a card moving across the screen as if you actually drew it from a desk. Here is the code for the animating: public void move(int x, int y) { int curX = this.x; //the entire class extends rectangle int curY = this.y; // animate the movement to place for (int i = curX; i > x; i--) { this.x = i; } this.x = x; this.y = y; } this rectangle object is inside of a panel inside of a jframe. for repainting the panel, i have this: public void run() { while (Core.isRunning()) { gamePanel.repaint(); //panel in which my rectangle object is in try { Thread.sleep
