Thread: JComboBox suggestions/help how can i do this?

Add an action listener to the first JComboBox. This is called when a user makes a choice. In the actionPerformed method, clear all items from the second JComboBox (removeAllItems method), then add each of the choice via the addItem method. It seems you tried something like this and it didn't work. We can't give advice specific to what you tried without an SSCCE demonstrating what you tried.

edit: that workeddddddd clearing the second combobox then adding them with additem worked perfect thank you very much

ah i was trying to add the choices to the second combobox via an array and i didnt clear all the items from the second box so maybe that was my problem ill try to do this way you said and see what happens then if it gives me more problems ill post an SSCCE

i didnt before because i tried a bunch of random stuff and didnt really pay attention to what i was trying only that it wasnt working so i erased it all to start over again lol

question off topic a little but how do you relax when everything you try doesnt work? this happens to me and i get very frustrated and dont know how to deal with it
