And now my second class.. I'm sorry I'm a complete noob, when I run the debugger it looks like Options Menu is constructing correctly, but then it just displays as the minimize, full screen and exit button and nothing else. It will also run perfectly fine independently if I run it on it's own page. I'm really confused at this point and would appreciate any help. I have seen a lot of examples on here where the JFrame isn't set to isVisible or instantiated, but that isn't the case here. Thank you so much for any help!

CodePudding user response:

The problem is that your classes (ATM_Display and OptionsMenu) extend JFrame but are never really used as JFrames (you create a separate JFrame instance in each).

That means that when you make the OptionsMenu visible there is nothing to show (because you add all elements to the OptionsMenu.frame).

You should drop the extends clause:

public class ATM_Display {
    // ...
}

and

public class OptionsMenu {
    // ...
}

Now you will have a compile error in ATM_Display on the following line because the OptionsMenu doesn't have a setVisible() method:

    frame2.setVisible(true);

To make the code work again the OptionsMenu needs this setVisible() method to make its frame visible:

public class OptionsMenu {
    // ...

    public void setVisible(boolean b) {
        frame.setVisible(b);
    }
}
