Child window

Thread view: 
Click - 05 Oct 2007 09:10 GMT
Hello,

In my application, I have two JFrames, the second one is supposed to be on
top of the first one, even if the first one has the focus. I cannot find how
to do that.
I have done some research, and seen that the Window object constructor
allows another window as parameter. But JFrame does not allow that. As
JFrame is a derivative from Window, it contains the method getOwner. So
there must be a way to define the owner of the window.
Has anyone got an idea?
Thanks, Francois

Use a JDialog instead, with that JFrame specified as
the owner.
