So I decided to mess around with the idea of having a main frame with frames inside it. Started messing around with JInternalFrames.

I went to the oracle page: http://docs.oracle.c...ernalframe.html and read up on the subject and gave it a whirl.

Wouldn't work. Then I tried removing the JDesktopPane and adding the new JInternalFrame directly to the primary JFrame. It worked - showed up; I could move it around, close it (minimize and resize wouldn't work).

So I added a JDesktopPane back in and read some tutorials and tried them and nothing would work. Finally looked at the full sample code on the Oracle page I linked to and copied it directly to Eclipse and ran it. Crazy thing, it didn't work either - directly from Oracle. The JInternalFrames simply will not show up for me on top of a JDesktopFrame.

I downloaded the demo using "Launch" from that same page, and ran it and it worked like it was supposed to. So something is odd.

I'm wondering if anyone has any insite to this issue. I'm on an iMac, if it matters - which I wouldn't think it would.

Without seing your code not much we can say but try mine and tell us what happens

Thanks - I tossed your code into Eclipse and it works perfectly fine. Strange the official code from Oracle didn't, though.

I'll pick your code apart and figure out where I was going wrong.
