I need the functionality of AWT Frames for one component, but my main application

  • 0

I need the functionality of AWT Frames for one component, but my main application window is a JFrame. Ideally this would be incorporated into my gridbaglayout.

Is there a way to do this short of tracking mouseclicks and “setLocationRealativeTo” with a window priority setting?

Update: I have added my media player into a “Canvas” to forgo the JInternalFrame or anything else, this component will be added to my main frame.

I am using a GridBagLayout, and Add all my buttons in the constructor of my main window, but I need to add this canvas afterward. Does anyone know how to add to a gridbaglayout post-constructor? I have tried “mainGUIclass.add(canvas,gridbagconstraints);” to no avail (since I just use “add(randomcomponent, gridbagconstraints);” in the constructor.

UPDATE: I think the root question here has changed for me, I will post a new one more to the point, thank you for all your help.

    Why not just use a JInternalFrame? For more information, see How to Use Internal Frames.
