Is that a bad joke? There's nohting useful there. You don't even seem to
have read my original question.

If it is a bad joke then it follows from a bad troubleshooting query.
No useful troubleshooting information in the OP.

To the OP: Why would you consider it a joke, much less a bad one? It was the
single best piece of advice anyone here could have given you.
You want information, you have to give information. It's all explained on the
referenced site.

I realise that my first post was somewhat cryptical. As it is, the
JTabbedPane became invalid when I added some content to the JPanels on
it while the JTabbedPane was already visible. Would I have found that on
that SSCE site?

The answer is not 'on the site', but the answer may
have become apparent in the process of *making* an SSCCE.
Even if the answer did not become clear while making an
SSCCE, the final SSCCE is a convenient 'chunk of code'
that displays the problem for others to see.
This is explained in the page (which you have apparently
still not read).

Additionally, even if making the SSCCE doesn't reveal the problem to you, it
is much better at communication of necessary information to those of whom you
request assistance, compared to not providing the necessary information.
Otherwise you disempower those who would help from doing so. Is that what you
want, OP?

For a perfect example of the power of the SSCCE see the recent thread:
"Erasing a line" in this group.

It is impossible to help you if you don't post some other information.
The question you made is too generic to help you.
SSCCE is a way, the best way, to post a query with the needed
information to be helped.
Take a look a the website they give you and repost your query.

There is another thing.
Often in the process of creating the SSCCE you discover the problem by
yourself.
