So I am in the process of creating a game similar to Plants vs Zombies, however I've run into a slight problem: before I can apply the finishing touches such as levels, I need to prevent more than one JLabel being added to a JPanel. The placing of the JLabel works fine, though I think that I may have gone a roundabout route. The problem as stated above is that another JLabel can currently be added below a pre-existing JLabel. How do I set a JPanel to accept no more than the original component (the initial JLabel)? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

How do I set a JPanel to accept no more than the original
You can use the Container.getComponentCount() method to check how many components have been added to the panel.
Only add your component when the count is 0.
I am having a problem with a game that I am trying to make in Java. I am trying to attach a MouseListener to my canvas, however, when I click on the canvas, nothing happens. I think I may be attaching the MouseListener to the wrong thing, but I don't know what to attach it to. I have tried attaching it to the JFrame and the canvas. Here is my code:

General tips, in point form:
Don't mix AWT (e.g. Canvas) with Swing (e.g. JFrame) components. Instead of the Canvas, use a JPanel and override paintComponent(Graphics) rather than paint(Graphics).
Don't call Thread.sleep(n) on the EDT. Instead use a Swing based Timer to call repaint()
Don't perform long running operations on the paint method, especially starting an infinite loop! Even the creation of the buffer image should only be done in the case the screen size changes. (left as 'TODO' - BNI)
Add the MouseListener once in the constructor or an init() method rather than every time paint is called.
Highly recommend all of Nate's numbered list of notes.
Try this code, and compare it carefully to the original to see the changes.

Use a JComponent instead of a Canvas. You'll want to add the mouse listener to that object. You'll also need to set up the mouse listener in the constructor, not the paint() method.
Edit: You're doing to much in the paint() method as #AndrewThompson pointed out.
public Gravity() {
addMouseListener(new MouseListener() {
#Override
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
System.out.println("Mouse was clicked");
}
#Override
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent arg0) {
}
#Override
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent arg0) {
}
#Override
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent arg0) {
}
#Override
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent arg0) {
}
});
}
#Override
public void paint(Graphics g) {
buffer = createImage(screenw, screenh);
bg = buffer.getGraphics();
...
bg.setColor(Color.BLACK);
bg.fillRect(0, 0, w, h); // black background
for (int j = 0; j < 100; j++) { // make stars
...
}
bg.drawImage(title, 100, 100, null);
g.drawImage(buffer, 0, 0, null);
double xvel = -15;
double yvel = 10;

Image test = createImage(200, 200);

testg.drawLine(50, 50, 150, 150);

Notes about your code:
Avoid making fields public static. 99.9% of the time this is not necessary, and usually leads to trouble later.
The painting code seems to be unnecessarily using buffers--the test Image is not used at all currently!
I removed the while(true) loop, but noticed you're drawing an image, modifying the image, and then drawing the image again. You can probably do this in one go.
You should be able to avoid using an Image buffer altogether since you're creating a new one each time paint() is called, and clearing it at the beginning. Just draw your graphics directly to g.
Avoid doing I/O from within the paint() method. Load your images during construction or in a background thread.
Your paint() method is tying up the Thread that handles the mouse click event, due to the while (!started) loop that never exits. started is never true because the MouseListener's mouseClicked() is never called because the paint() method is waiting for started to be true! If you remove that loop, the while (true) loop will have a similar effect. Any mouse events that happen while paint() is running will be queued until paint() returns.
I'm trying to mimic a ScrollPane by simply inheriting from a Panel which itself moves its child around.
Should be a simple task but the child doesn't get clipped properly, meaning if I scroll around using setScrollPosition(Point) the content is visible although its outside the parent Panel.
public class ScrollFrame
extends Container
{
public ScrollFrame() {
setLayout(null);
}
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.drawRect(0, 0, getWidth() - 1, getHeight() - 1);
super.paint(g);
}
public void setScrollPosition(Point p) {
setScrollPosition(p.x, p.y);
}
public void setScrollPosition(int x, int y) {
synchronized (getTreeLock()) {
Component component = getComponent(0);
int viewPortWidth = getWidth(),
viewPortHeight = getHeight(),
componentWidth = component.getWidth(),
componentHeight = component.getHeight(),
componentX = component.getX(),
componentY = component.getY();
if (x < 0) {
x = 0;
} else if (x > 0 && x + viewPortWidth > componentWidth) {
x = componentWidth - viewPortWidth;
if (x < 0)
x = 0;
}
if (y < 0) {
y = 0;
} else if (y > 0 && y + viewPortHeight > componentHeight) {
y = componentHeight - viewPortHeight;
if (y < 0)
y = 0;
}
component.setLocation(x * -1, y * -1);
validate();
}
}
public Point getScrollPosition() {
synchronized (getTreeLock()) {
Point p = getComponent(0).getLocation();
p.x *= -1;
p.y *= -1;
return p;
}
}
}
Problem: The child component added to the ScrollFrame is visible outside the boundaries of the ScrollFrame.

I'm new at using actionListener and mouselistner. I want to track the Mouse movements and connect the dots as I go. So it will be one continuous line. I am using the MouseMotionListener every time I move the mouse across the screen and get a new set of points. I am not using mousePressed or mouseReleased.
Everytime I move the mouse, I can get every point of where my mouse's position is on my JPanel to show up on my results window, but in order to draw the line between two points, I'm not sure how to decipher between each different set of points so I can have a beginning and ending set of points to use for drawing a line? I checked through here and the API and I'm stuck.
I was asked to put more code and so I gave you my code.
I am basically creating a Jpane that tracks mouse movement when the Track Mouse button or Draw Track Radio button is pressed
These results will print out as (x,y) on the output screen
FYI: You can also draw circles once the Draw circles RadioButton is checked

You just have to save x and y in some attribute for your class (like lastX and lastY.) When you get the event the second time, your first point coordinates are saved in your attributes and you can then draw your line. This new point has to be saved too to serve as your new lastX and lastY.
Even better: since you'll probably need to redraw your lines each frame (if you want a set of lines and not just a single line to be drawn each frame), use Point to save your coordinates and some kind of list like ArrayList. Save the full set of tracked points in an ArrayList<Point> and then draw each frame iterating over this list.

Any idea???
Do I need to set any kind of visibility??
Thanks
No, add the textArea to the ScrollPane then put the ScrollPane in your panel.
As a side note I would suggest learning more about LayoutManagers. They are worth the learning curve.
Example:
//In a container that uses a BorderLayout:
textArea = new JTextArea(5, 30);
...
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(textArea);
...
setPreferredSize(new Dimension(450, 110));
...
add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
Taken from: How to use scroll panes
You're adding both the text area, AND the scrollpane containing it to the content pane.
you're also setting sizes on the textarea, but not the scrollpane. and since your layout is managing all the bounds, the scrollpane is probably 0x0 at 0,0
setSize(new Dimension(CLIENT_WIDTH, CLIENT_HEIGHT));
this.getContentPane().setLayout(null);
this.getContentPane().setBackground(backColor);
talkArea.setEditable(false);
talkArea.setBackground(Color.white);
talkArea.setBounds(new Rectangle(TALK_LEFT, TALK_TOP, TALK_WIDTH, TALK_HEIGHT));
this.getContentPane().add(talkArea, null); // <--- you want this inside the text area, not here!
// set input area
inputField.setBackground(Color.white);
inputField.setBounds(new Rectangle(INPUT_LEFT, INPUT_TOP, INPUT_WIDTH, INPUT_HEIGHT));
inputField.addActionListener(this);
this.getContentPane().add(inputField, null);
this.getContentPane().add(talkAreaScrollPane, null); // <--- you never set the size on here
why are you getting rid of the layout and then managing everything explicitly for size? this would be a lot simpler if you used something like borderlayout and preferred sizes and let those things manage bounds for you.
