    Default Adding JPanel using Jbutton, Expanding JFrame as needed.

    If anyone could show me a sample/ example or link to reading that could help, please assist.

    On my first try, I created my panel as a class extending JPanel.
    I created an instance and added it to the frame simply enough.

    I get trouble when trying to perform the same function via a JButton.

    I'll post an example of what I have soon. I scrapped my first run as it became a mess and debugging was wasting more time than a rewrite.
