  1. POJava swing --JPanel on JPanel not showing up
    text
    copied!<p>I trying to add a JPanel to another JPanel but am faced with the problem that the second Jpanel will not show up on the first one.<br> My basic structure of things is as follows --<br> I have a <code>JPanel panel1</code> which has a <code>BoxLayout</code> and by virtue of <code>HorizontalBoxes</code> and <code>VerticalBoxes</code> i keep adding <code>JComponents</code> to it. All <code>JComponents</code> appear on panel1 except for the second <code>JPanel</code>. The code for the second <code>JPanel</code> which wont appear is as follows --</p> <pre><code>public class LabelMacroEditor extends JPanel implements PropertyChangeListener { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; private LabelMacroModel model; public LabelMacroEditor(LabelMacroModel bean) { this.model = bean; model.addPropertyChangeListener(this); setupComponents(); validate(); setVisible(true); } public void setupComponents() { Box allButtons = Box.createVerticalBox(); for(MacroModel macroModel : model.getMacroModelList()) { LabelMacroEditorEditableEntity macroEditorEntity = new LabelMacroEditorEditableEntity(macroModel); Box entityBox = Box.createHorizontalBox(); entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getUpButton()); entityBox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(15)); entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getMacroDetailsButton()); entityBox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(15)); entityBox.add(macroEditorEntity.getDownButton()); allButtons.add(entityBox); } add(allButtons); } @Override public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent arg0) { revalidate(); } } </code></pre> <p>I have tested <code>LabelMacroEditor</code> in a standalone way by adding it to a JFrame and found that it appears fine. Im assuming its has something to do with come confliction revalidate/setVisible or the like. <br>Am i missing something obvious ?</p> <p>I can post more code from the <code>JPanel</code> that is adding <code>LabelMacroEditor</code> if there is a need.</p> <p>EDIT : The code snippet from where im adding <code>LabelMacroEditor</code> is as follows --</p> <pre><code>private final LabelMacroModel labelMacroModel; private LabelMacroEditor labelMacroEditor; //code to populate labelMacroModel Box verticalBox = Box.createVerticalBox(); // Add all other JComponents to verticalBox labelMacroEditor = new LabelMacroEditor(labelMacroModel); verticalBox.add(labelMacroEditor); add(verticalBox); </code></pre>
