Is it possible to remove or hide a selected JCheckBox from a list of JcheckBoxes in GroupLayout?

[Karri Tata Rao]

Hi Friends,
There are 8 JCheckboxes, which are already added to panel and aligned in group layout. From which, I have selected one JCheckbox. Then the resultant GUI should contain only remaining 7
JCheckboxes and selected one should temporarily removed or hide from GUI .
Is it possible? If so, how?

Thank You.

Of course you can remove and add boxes. But why? That will produce a very strange appearance.

You realise most buttons (which is what check boxes are) have a setEnabled method? You can enable and disable them as required.

Thank you for your suggestion. But I have to do that task. Can you guide me how it is possible to updation of CheckBoxes on selection of one checkbox.



Thank You friends

All components have a setVisible() method. You can simply call setVisible(false) on the checkbox's action listener. Nevertheless, it would look odd when the checkbox disappears as soon as the user clicks on it.

Thank you friend. It is seems to be removed, but it is not temporarily removed from panel layout I think so.
