    What is the correct input for the "convert value" textField?

    the input can be any number. the program is a unit converter. if you type 'one', that will enable you to convert meters to kilometers, typing 'two' will make you convert feet to kilometers, 'three' for kelvin to fahrenheit and 'four' for celsius to fahrenheit. if you choose one, and placed 10 as the convert value, that will be .01 kilometers.

    but i can't seem to make the buttons to work. the output/answer is supposed to appear to lbl3 which is located between the convert textfield and the clear and convert buttons. i've been trying to figure out the problem with my code, but i can't seem to find any.

    Your code tries to capture those events in the action listener implementation within another caught event, which means they will never be seen. Add another else if along with the other 'outer' ones to implement the actions of those buttons.

    I found your problem. On the beginning of your action listener you have
    if(e.getActionCommand().equals("h")){
    Which meant that the action performed had to magically be H AND X. Here is my fixed code (works perfectly fine for me):

    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import java.lang.*;
     
    public class unitConversion {
        public static void main (String[] args) {
            JFrameWithPanel panel = new JFrameWithPanel();
            panel.setSize(305,250);
            panel.setVisible(true);
            panel.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        }
    }
     
    class JFrameWithPanel extends JFrame implements ActionListener{
        JLabel lbl = new JLabel("Enter choice (i.e. One, Two, Three, or Four)");
        JLabel lbl2 = new JLabel("Enter value to convert:");
        JTextField txt = new JTextField();
        JTextField txt2 = new JTextField();
        JLabel lbl3 = new JLabel();
        JButton btn = new JButton("CLEAR");
        JButton btn2 = new JButton("CONVERT");
        JButton btnok = new JButton("OK");
        JButton btncan = new JButton("CANCEL");
        public static String u;
        public static double i, mn;
        public JFrameWithPanel(){
            setTitle("Unit Conversion");
            setLayout(null);
            txt.setBounds(10,48,120,31);
            lbl.setBounds(10,23,300,20);
            txt2.setBounds(160,92,110,30);
            lbl2.setBounds(10,96,130,20);
            lbl3.setBounds(40,120,300,30);
            lbl3.setHorizontalAlignment( SwingConstants.CENTER );
            btnok.setBounds(135,48,60,30);
            btnok.addActionListener(this);
            btnok.setActionCommand("h");
            btncan.setBounds(200,48,80,30);

            btn.setActionCommand("g");
            btn2.setBounds(132,160,120,30);
            btn2.addActionListener(this);
            btn2.setActionCommand("x");
            add(btn);
            add(btn2);
            add(btnok);

    java.lang is actually being used, but it's always imported so you never need to explicitly tell Java you want to import it

    How do you get they get it to make a new Rectangle with the Rectangle class in Java? I can't figure that out for the life of me!

    I've tried trying for a long time.

    I need to somehow find the the upper-right and lower left point of the new Rectangle formed by the intersection of the two Rectangles. But how? I've tried and tried. Nothing works.
