[Help] How to refresh a JPanel - N3ll - Oct 30, 2015

Hi, I have a JFrame, inside the JFrame I have 3 JPanel.

I want to change the middle JPanel with a setter, but when I do myframe.setMidPanel(new JPanel()); I still see my old panel

I tried stuff like remove/add/validate/revalidate/repaint but I probably did something wrong because it's not working

My JPanel contains a JTable

My code is something like

Code 
mainFrame.setpMid(vc);

mainFrame.remove(mainFrame.getpMid());

mainFrame.add(mainFrame.getpMid());

edit: I solved my problem with this:

Code 
    mf.remove(mf.getpMid());

mf.getpMid().revalidate();

        mf.getpMid().repaint();

        mf.add(mf.getpMid());

        mf.revalidate();

        mf.repaint();

You can make a thread and in this thread you make a while loop that constantly checks whether the condition you set changes and when then does, it will update the panel :)
