Components one over the other

[Sutured]

Hello,

I create a frame and add a panel in it. I set panel layout to null so I can paint it myself giving the exact bounds.

I add a button A, then a button B. I animate the button B and at some point it passes over A. My problem is that it passes behind A and not in front as intended.

How can I choose which button is on top in view?

Thank you.

Use a JLayeredPane and specify which layer each component is to be placed on. The tutorials will show you how to do this.

I read the API and implemented the JLayeredPane, as you suggested.

Thank you Fuba.
