    copied!<p>I have an application which after a change is made a green check mark appears indicating success of the change. The application has several possible changes which could be made and I would like to be able to have the check mark disappear after 2.5 seconds. I have tried several things like:</p> <pre><code>panel.add(checkMark); checkMark.setVisible(true); panel.remove(checkMark); checkMark.setVisible(false); </code></pre> <p>Nothing seems to be working. I added a <code>timer</code> call followed by a <code>checkMark.setVisible(false)</code> and nothing seems to be helping. </p> <p>Could someone please point out what I am doing incorrectly? Below is my code:</p> <pre><code>//Create Change Role Button final JButton changeRoleBtn = new JButton("Change Role"); changeRoleBtn.setBounds(50, 500, 150, 30); changeRoleBtn.setToolTipText("Changes the role of the User"); changeRoleBtn.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { //Create Success Image final ImageIcon i1 = new ImageIcon("/Users/vhaislsalisc/Documents/workspace/Role_Switcher/greenCheck.png"); final JLabel checkMark = new JLabel(i1); checkMark.isOptimizedDrawingEnabled(); i1.paintIcon(changeRoleBtn, getGraphics(), 400,25); checkMark.setVisible(true); try { timer = new Timer(2000, new ActionListener() { @Override public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { checkMark.setVisible(false); timer.stop(); } }); timer.start(); } catch(Exception e5) { e5.printStackTrace(); timer.stop(); } } }); </code></pre> <p>Here is the bit about the timer. The other code is relevant, as it includes my declaration for the graphic and how it is being called and used. </p> <pre><code>try { timer = new Timer(2000, new ActionListener() { @Override public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { checkMark.setVisible(false); timer.stop(); } }); timer.start(); } catch(Exception e5) { e5.printStackTrace(); timer.stop(); } </code></pre>
