JMenu and JPopupMenu 10 Years Ago by Petranilla Hi everyone, I'm dealing with both JMenu and JPopupMenu in a program. Looks good except when I switch from JMenu to JPopupMenu by right click, it doesnt work. How? Many thanks. Re: JMenu and JPopupMenu 10 Years Ago by Petranilla Lucaci: Yes, JPopupMenu(by right click) from JMenu but it doen't change the background. It's actually a program to change background.Many thanks. mKorbel: I'll check,the menus are display on both JMenu and JPopupMenu but it's not displaying the background.Many thanks. Re: JMenu and JPopupMenu 10 Years Ago by Lucaci Andrew > JPopupMenu(by right click) from JMenu but it doen't change the background. It's actually a program to change background. This, I don't get this. What do you mean by > it doen't change the background ? Isn't the JPopomenu showing when you right click an item from your JMenu? Re: JMenu ...Can't remember 19 Years Ago by Meldroz I think you want something with swings since you mentioned JMenu. here's a simple example: JMenu menu = new JMenu("Color"); JMenuItem blueM = new JMenuItem("blue"); // and do this for the others and once done add them to your menu //ex: menu.add(blueM); // and so on hope this helps good luck, Mel Re: JMenu ...Can't remember 19 Years Ago by server_crash Thank you all for the help. I guess I was unclear on what I wanted. I figured out how to do this though. What you do, is simply add a JMenu, to a JMenu, and that makes it to were you can have subcategories. Re: JMenu Items and listeners 13 Years Ago by StaticX It was a null to pointer error. I have overcome the error through creating local actionPerformed event handlers instead of the method shown above and it now works.I think it may have been a problem with a JMenu Item having the same functionality as a button in the JFrame.
