How to set a JFrame as focus

Hey there,

I'm developing a GUI and wish to set an options frame as the focus so that you cannot click on the main window whilst the options frame is up. I've tried setFocusable(true) and requestFocus() but neither seem to work.

I've had a look at the api and can't find anything myself.

Thanks in advance!

Don't use another JFrame but rather a modal JDialog for this. This is precisely what they're best used for.

Oh, I've never heard of a JDialog before. I'll go look it up now - thanks a lot.

Haha, 10 seconds of replacing a couple of bits of code and that works great.

Thanks again Fubarable.

You're welcome and congrats!
