MessageBox from a Jpane appears under all the windows

Hi,

I've a Job with 2 Tjava at the end. In those Tjava I've written some custom code that will check some data in given tables and if I encounter an anomlay, I've set up to display a message box using Jpane. The problem rises when the msgbox is not showed in the first layer, but is instead overlayed by all the windows.

Since I've got a plenty of this cheks, I've used some routines to semplify the process of using lot of tmsgBox.

Is there a way to let the message appear in front of all the windows?

Thanks

Hello @matteo marchesi

I can't tell why the JPanel is being overlayed by all other windows without looking at your code, but what I usually do is use a JPanel inside a JFrame and it works pretty well. Here's an example:

JFrame frame = new JFrame("Window");

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

//frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(7, 2, 10, 10)); // 7 rows, 2 columns, with gaps

// Create a JPanel with a BorderLayout

JPanel panel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());

panel.setLayout(new GridLayout(7, 2, 10, 10));

frame.add(panel);

//panel content goes here

frame.pack();

frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null); // center the window

frame.setVisible(true);

frame.setSize(400, 300); //set window size

frame.setResizable(false);

I hope it helps.

Best regards,

Anselmo

Thank you @Anselmo Peixoto, I've missed the "frame.setVisible(true);" line.

Using that, now my panel is showed with priority over the other windows.

Thanks
