I have set up a huge game project. I'm using the CardLayout to show when the mouse is released on the JLabel. I have it working on other classes' JLabels, but when I press a JLabel it only shows the last JPanel of the CardLayout. I want it to show the specific JPanel that I have it set to. Anything will help.

CodePudding user response：

There's a lot going on which is, well, questionable at best, for example...

public ChooseGame() {
    //...
    addMouseListener(handler);
    addMouseMotionListener(handler);
    //...
}

public void buttons() {
    game1.addMouseListener(handler);
    game1.addMouseMotionListener(handler);
    //...
}

Now, both the ChooseGame and each individual label has a the MouseListener attached to them, why? This could cause a double trigger of events

Then...

public void time(MouseEvent e) {
  Timer timer = new Timer();
  // adds new Timer
  TimerTask task = new TimerTask() {
    // sets new task for said timer
    @Override
    public void run() {
      if (game1.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "one");
      } else if (game2.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "two");
      } else if (game3.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "three");
      } else if (game4.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "four");
      } else if (game5.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "five");
      } else if (game6.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "six");
      } else if (game7.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "seven");
      } else if (game8.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "eight");
      } else if (game9.contains(e.getX(), e.getY())) {
        CardPanel.layout.show(CardPanel.cardPanel, "nine");
      }
    }
  };
  timer.scheduleAtFixedRate(task, 0, 1000);
}

you're comparing the point of the event against the each labels location, which in my testing, had each label return true for the contains check
