Redrawing the grid bag layout

[preethidv]

Hi All,

I have a requirement in which I want to redraw a gridbaglayout panel based on a radio button selection. Can someone suggest me how to achieve this? Initially, the screen will look like this -

<Radio button 1>
<Radio button 2>
<Radio button 3>

On selection of radio button 2, I should show -
<Radio button 1>
<Radio button 2>
<JPanel 1>
<Radio button 3>

On selection of radio button 3, I should show -
<Radio button 1>
<Radio button 2>
<Radio button 3>
<JPanel 2>

On selection of radio button 1, I should show -
<Radio button 1>
<Radio button 2>
<Radio button 3>


What is the best way to achieve this? I was thinking of card layout for the entire screen (and switch between 3 UIs based on button selection), but that requires me to maintain 3 different instances of the 3 radio buttons (since the button click can happen in any order). Can someone please suggest me better method?


Thanks,
Preethi

Can you do one or both of these recommendations?

1) Post screen shots showing exactly the effect that you are trying to achieve.
2) Post a very small compilable program that demonstrates your problem, a program that we can compile and run without any dependencies.

Also, have you tried a simple setVisible(true/false)? for the JPanel?
