Card Layout

[Gilbee]

Does anyone know how to set up a card layout in netbeans? I understand how to make a panel into a card layout and how to add panels to that panel, but how do you switch from one card to another using a button? Thanks.

Figured it out.

how did you get it working?!

Under properties on your card, you should see "Card Name." I named my second card "NEXT". Then under the button, I inserted the code:

CardLayout cl = (CardLayout) (mainPanel.getLayout());
cl.show(mainPanel, "NEXT");

Hope this helps.
