    i need help with to make the Jbutton = new Jbutton("EXIT"); i want to make the jbutton to close the jframe when its running so i dont have to click at the top for closing it
    i have tried to add the system.dispose();
    for see if its closing if you click the exit button but i want to make that button close the jframe when its running
    is this more easier for you to understand?

    The System class does not have a dispose() method. Consult the API for the methods of the class.
    If you are using a different class named System, that is a poorly chosen name for a class, and it should be changed.

    It sounds to me like you have a problem filtering your events.

    You do not need to start a new thread with the same question.

    yup im a newbeginner so im having problem with filtering events

    --- Update ---

    i want to make the jbutton button = new jbutton("Start Spaceball"); to open a new jframe but if i add
    button.addActionListener(this);
    and this.add(button); and when i open the jframe and click start spaceball it closes beacuse i added this under

    @Override
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    this.setTitle("EXITING");
    setVisible(false);
    super.dispose();

    it closes the start spaceball button beacuse i added the actionlistener to the jbutton and i dont want to let that happen if click it. i want it to open a new jframe while the first one is running thats the problem
    i hope this explains more of that i need help to

    Use an action command to help filter. If you are using 7 or later you can switch on the String

    Please do not create another thread with the same question. This is your third try.
    You can refer to the answer given in post #19. If you do not understand it, ask a question.

    jps above asked you to stop creating new threads, and yet you do it again. Consider this a warning - do so again and you leave the moderating staff no other choice to take further action. I have merged your threads with this one.

    Given you have yet to follow the advice given, or even elaborate on your problem, I'm not sure what sort of help you expect.

    You could use frame.setVisible(false); There's probably a 'right' way to actually close it though

    Window.setVisible(boolean) will make the window hide or show but not close.
