don't to create another JFrame
use CardLayout with JFrame.pack(), after card is switched
You can try: jFrame.dispose();

I have 3 Jframe, when I click on first Jframe, it closes it and opens new, is there any way to call second jframe on this window?
How many JFrames can be visible at a time simultaneously....?
I wrote a GUI program that opens another window when a button "Sign in" is clicked.That new window has its own button which opens another window.After the 3rd window no new window is opening.My program had maximum five windows.
You can have as much as JFrame you want .
There isn't any limitations as I know.
But if you are facing any tgere should be a solution.
You should just close current JFrame before opening other one.
I'm working in the netbeans GUI interface, and I want to know how to close the window. I found the following code:
frame.dispatchEvent(new WindowEvent(frame, WindowEvent.WINDOW_CLOSING));
However, I cannot find the name of the frame in the code.
How do I find the frame name, or am I going about this the wrong way? How do I close it?
Put this line in your form no need to use window event
setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
How do I close it?
When you create the frame you need code like:
Jframe frame = new JFrame(...);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT__ON_CLOSE);
Now when you click on the "close" button the application will exit.
However you may also want to close the frame by using a menu item. In this case what you want to do is create an Action that you can add to your "Exit" JMenuItem.
Check out the Exit Action found in Closing an Application. The Exit Action shows how you can access the current frame in order to dispatch the windowClosing() event to the frame. So the "Exit" menu item will then function just like the user clicking on the "close" button.
You are using NetBeans IDE, go to JFrame Properties, the very first option is DefaultCloseOperation, use the drop down menu to toggle between options available or you can add custom codes.

Turns out all I needed was
System.exit(0);
When my program launches, a window (aka "StartWindow") opens that has 3 options: New Game/Load Game/Exit. When New Game or Load Game is clicked (and after some input), the game window (aka "GameWindow") will open so the user can play.
When the GameWindow opens, I would like to have the StartWindow close. And when the GameWindow closes, the StartWindow will open until the actual "EXIT" button is clicked.
Is there a way to do this? Right now, the only way I can achieve something similar to this is having a boolean called "gameRunning". When this is true, the buttons on StartWindow will have no action when clicked. Opposite when false.
For example purposes, suppose that each window has 3 buttons, a text field, and nothing else.
Use setVisible(false) method on parent before opening any child window. When child window closes call setVisible(true). It will solve your problem
I have one frame that opens up another frame (editor). Most of the menu accelerators don't work when opened this way, but when I run the editor frame standalone, they do work. Should it work?
It turns out that when you open one frame from another in java you have to start another thread or the keybindings don't work right - they all get caught by the first frame. This makes sense.
