Hello,

For some reason when I use the particualr block of code below it will work the first time, but when called again with RemComps as true, it will work almost the way I want it to, but instead of the one set of buttons it has 2 (or the number of times it is called).

public void renewFrame(config config, boolean RemComps){
		if(RemComps){
			this.removeAll();
		}
		config.bg = new Color(config.bgcolor[0],config.bgcolor[1],config.bgcolor[2]);
		this.header.setFont(new Font("Serif",Font.BOLD,46));
		this.header.setBorder(BorderFactory.createMatteBorder(0,5,0,0,config.bg));
		add(this.header, BorderLayout.NORTH);
		this.buttonPane.setBackground(config.bg);
		this.buttonPane.setLayout(new BoxLayout(buttonPane, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
		this.buttonPane.setBorder(BorderFactory.createMatteBorder(0,5,0,5,config.bg));
		add(this.buttonPane, BorderLayout.WEST);
		for(int i=0;i<config.permissions.length;i++){
			if(config.permissions[i]){
				this.actionButton = new JButton(this.perms[i]);
				this.actionButton.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(220,30));
				this.actionButton.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(220,30));
				this.actionButton.setName(this.perms[i]);
				JLabel spacer = new JLabel(" ");
				spacer.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(0,1));
				spacer.setFont(new Font("Serif",Font.PLAIN,1));
				this.buttonPane.add(spacer);
				this.buttonPane.add(this.actionButton);
				this.actionButton.addActionListener(this);
			}
		}
		this.contentPane.setBackground(config.bg);
		this.contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
		add(this.contentPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
		this.contentShow.setText("<html><body style='background:rgb("+launcher.config.bgcolor[0]+","+launcher.config.bgcolor[1]+","+launcher.config.bgcolor[2]+")'><center><div style='height:90px;'>&nbsp;</div><h2>Welcome "+launcher.config.username+"!</h2><h3>Your login was successful!</h3></center></body></html>");
		this.contentShow.setBorder(null);
		this.contentPane.add(this.contentShow);
	}

config is a class of variables
contentShow is a JLabel
contentPane and buttonPane are JPanels
header is a JLabel
permissions is a boolean array
perms is a String array of button names


Any help would be appreciated!

(What I want: (link) What happens after it is recalled: (link) )

revalidate();
repaint();

Sadly, still doing the same thing.

be sure that works, its empty discusion because you didn't show any usage of

I managed to figure something out, more complicated than I was expecting, but it works.

My code essentially closes the frame and re-opens it, re-drawing everything. It doesn't 100% close it though, it just wipes everything off and restarts every time I need an update.
