Thanks, it works.
I viewed some my programs done with the IDE.

The entire code is posted.
the menus are below setJMenubar

The code I posted is completely runnable.

I don't understand Swing applications should be run on the EDT.

NetBeans 8.0.1
This is the 3rd time I've rebuilt this program.
My problem seems to be when I add the Menu's.
When I use RUN, the menu's sometimes show up or sometimes NOT.
When I use DEBUG it...

I thought it was outside of any methods, It's below the button.
Thanks.
I have something to work with now.

Above is what I'm trying do

I have this and it works


switchHLbut.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
if(setBg == true){

Hi, I've been through 10 chapters of tutorials.
From OOP to Concurrency - Threads.
I was using Netbeans-IDE, and I'm back to do it without Netbeans.
Good luck to me.
