Jpanel not showing when clicking run in netbeans

Jpanel not showing when clicking run in netbeans - java

i'm currently working on a java desktop project , oddly enough whenever i hit the run button , the Jpanel doesn't show up. I declared this as main but still it doesn't works. Any ideas ?
Here is the code for my Jpanel form.
Thanks in advance!.

public ventana() {

Nothing "odd" about this. Your ventana class is a JPanel, and yes, you create it and set it visible, but a JPanel by itself can not display, and to in fact have it show, it needs to be part of a visible "top-level window" such as a JFrame or JDialog. So if you want to show this JPanel in its own separate dialog window, put it into a JDialog, pack() the dialog, and then set the dialog visible. Or the quick and dirty way to do this is to put the ventana JPanel into a JOptionPane. e.g.,
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, new ventana());
A JOptionPane will then create and display a modal JDialog that will display your ventana object.
Note that the ventana class name should begin with an upper-case letter, like all Java class names should.

No etched frame on TitledBorder for JPanel

I'm using a JPanel on a JFrame and I have a TitledBorder on the JPanel. I create the JPanel with the titled border in NetBeans and I can see my title and the etched frame. When I run, I only see the title but not the etched frame. Any idea why I can't see the etched frame? I've tried setting the look and feel but can't get the frame to show up and it looks odd having the title with no border.
Running Java 1.7 on Windows 7. I don't recall this happening when we were using java 1.6.
Here's sample code:

This is not an answer yet
This is what I get in 1.7:
Is it not what you want?
Edit:
Try running this:
public class NewJFrame extends JFrame {
public NewJFrame() {
JPanel p = new JPanel();
p.add(new JLabel("AAAAA"));
p.setBorder(BorderFactory.createTitledBorder("Title"));
add(p);
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
pack();
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
new NewJFrame();
}
}
It's very minimal and should narrow the options. This is what I get:

Need some help copying my Map into this List

I'm doing a homework assignment using HashMap with GUI. The user will enter a Country, and the Capital of that country, and press Add, this will add those two Strings to the map, and it should add the Capital to the list on the right. The search function is next. The user will be able to type the name of the country, and it will highlight that countries capital in blue on the right among the other capitals that were added. Here is what it should look like.
How can I copy the contents of my hashMap to my JList? I only need the Capitals to display so I can search them.
Any help is appreciated, thank you.
P.S. Sorry for the generated code, the variable declarations are at the bottom because of it.

Look into the documentation of JList and it's many example use cases.
You can do something like this by modifying your adding values event using setListData() method:
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt)
{
String text = countryInput.getText();
String text2 = capitalInput.getText();
hashMap.put(text,text2);
capitalList.setListData(hashMap.values().toArray());
}
I've successfully tested it:
MapPanel mp = new MapPanel();
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Countries and capitals");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.add(mp);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
After adding a country, its capital is shown up in the right list. Problem solved ;-)

You can do it with next code in your actionPerformed() method:
AnotherFrame f = new AnotherFrame();
f.setNeededData(/*object*/);
f.pack();
f.setVisible(true);
AnotherFrame is JFrame which you want to create and show.
setNeededData(/*object*/) is method of your frame to transfer neededData.
and last 2 lines show it.

On the click of button you can simply create the object of the JFrame which you want to open and it will load the components in it (as you must be calling initComponents() method in the default constructor).
For passing the parameters from one frame to another you can simply create a POJO and set its properties in the current frame and pass this object to the destination frame while creating the object.
I hope this helps..

On button click ActionEvent:
Create the object of class which has the frame creation function and using that object call the newFrame function :
newframe frm = new newframe(this);
frm.NewFrame();
Suppose this function is in package package org.xyz.frame;
public void NewFrame(){
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Frame2");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
try
{
for (LookAndFeelInfo info : UIManager
.getInstalledLookAndFeels()) {
if ("Nimbus".equals(info.getName())) {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel(info.getClassName());
break;
}

How to open new JFrame using mouseListener

I'm trying to add a listener to my program that when a panel is clicked it will open a new JFrame. For instance jpanel4 is the panel labled messages. When I click on jpanel4 I would like it to open the SendMessages JFrame which is the SendMessages class.
Any insight on what direction I need to go? Is this method even viable?

Allow user handwriten marking on images - Java, Swing

I am developing an application using Java, Swing. It will be mainly used in order to study oscillograms against pentagrams for medical purposes. It is wished that the user can keep notes on top of the images (presumably something like the pencil used in Window's paint).
Please, keep in mind that every time the user loads an image, the following mouse motion listener gets attached to it (in order to make the image draggable for usability reasons):
public class DragMouseListener implements MouseMotionListener {
JLabel jl;
int imageX, imageY;
public DragMouseListener(JLabel jlabel) {
this.jl = jlabel;
jl.addMouseMotionListener(this);
}
#Override
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
updateImagePosition(e);
}
#Override
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
}
private void updateImagePosition(MouseEvent e) {
imageX = e.getX();
imageY = e.getY();
jl.setLocation(imageX, imageY);
}
}
Until now I am unable to even come close to a way of implementing it and I cannot find any references of the issue in the Internet. Any help (even rough ideas) would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Nick

I tried what you asked for DragMouseListener but found it very uncomfortable so used JInternal Frame it works fine(but you can still drag images inside JInternal Frame,as I implemented what you asked for).Insted of hand free writing,I used JEditorPane(you can add hand written thing if you want,but it will be a mess) with accessible parent JScrollPane so that you can type how much you want.
You can drag JInternal Frame easily:
Note: I have used NetBeans GUI Builder for this and suggest you too to use any GUI builder as it makes
typing work easy.
