I have a JPanel loaded on a JFrame . The JPanel contains 4 JButtons.

0

I have a JPanel loaded on a JFrame. The JPanel contains 4 JButtons. The thing I am trying to do is to get the focus automatically on the 1st jbutton so that I can traverse between the JButtons with the keyboard.

I tried the jButton1.requestFocusInWindow(); code inside the constructor of the jpanel but still it didn’t work. Is there something that i am missing? What more can i do?

Edit:
The Project Contains 3 java files and their code is as follows:

// Variables declaration - do not modify
private javax.swing.JButton jButton1;
private javax.swing.JButton jButton2;
private javax.swing.JButton jButton3;
private javax.swing.JButton jButton4;
private javax.swing.JButton jButton5;
public static javax.swing.JPanel jPanel1;
// End of variables declaration

}

The Reason to make the button focus able is to traverse between the buttons with arrow keys or the keyboard.

The method

jButton1.requestFocus();

should work just fine. But it is essential when you’re calling this method.

The method must be called after the button has been displayed. That means, don’t call the requestFocus() in the constructor, instead call it when the panel is already visible.

Here is some pseudo code:

public NewJFrame() {
    initComponents();
    //some methods ommitted
    setVisible(true);

    //change to NewJPanel1

    //request focus after displaying the NewJPanel1
}

EDIT: Here is a concrete implementation of a possible solution.

NewPanel.java

private void jButton2ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
    // TODO add your handling code here:
    jPanel1.setVisible(false);
    NewJFrame.container.remove(NewJPanel.this);
    NewJPanel1 p=new NewJPanel1();
    NewJFrame.container.add(p);

    p.initFocus();
}

NewJPanel1.java

public void initFocus() {
    jButton5.requestFocus();
}
