Replacing a JButton
Hi,
I'm not sure how I can go about replacing a JButton with a JRadioButton when the JButton is clicked. So say if I had Jpanel set as a gridlayout which lays out 4 rows (3 JLabels and a JButton). So when the user clicks the JButton, that JButton will be replaced with a JRadioButton.
Would I use a CardLayout for this purpose, or is there a simple way in replacing that JButton?
Thanks, much appreciated

An idea: put the component in a JPanel and add that JPanel to the grid layout. Then try removing the component from the panel and adding a different component.
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
Re: Replacing a JButton
Yes I could add the new RadioButton at position 3 (4th row JButton) to the JPanel, and removing the initial JButton. Thanks for the reply
Re: Replacing a JButton
Another option is to add both components to the JPanel but have one not visible. You can then make them appear and disappear at will without much effort.
Writing code is your job, helping you fix and understand it is mine.
