How to add JLabel of KeyListener object in Jframe of Main class

Time:10-28

I am a bit to new to this Java bit of coding. The problem is that I have a different class for KeyListener and an image that I want to display if the user presses a key, but the image is from JLabel and I want to add it in JFrame of the main class but I am not understanding how I would do that. Yes I did see another question, this one: HappyKeys
