Need some help with JLabels.

[Medabi3]

So I got this these codes:

		add(item1);
		remove(item1);
		add(item2);

Is it any how possible to slow the part between add and remove item?
Like I want the text to be visible for let's say 5 seconds, and then remove it so item2 is visible?
I tried use Thread.Wait but it slowed the entire program down by 5 seconds. :(

Use a Swing Timer.

To get better help sooner, post a SSCCE (Short, Self Contained, Compilable and Executable) example that demonstrates the problem.
