Disable background panel in netbeans
I have these three panels in layeredPane2 as backPanel , overlayPanel and popupPanel. When I click the button I want that only the popupPanel (The one with "task created!" is visible), along with the overlayPanel the gray full size box that is supposed to hide the backPanel.This the starting screen with only backPanel visible.
when I click the createBtn, I get this:
In top left corner, I don't why but there is the button and the text field visible. Also, the Create button doesn't hide. Moreover, the elements on the backPanel are accessible like this:
This is my code:
popupPanel.setVisible(true);
overlayPanel.setVisible(true);
I tried backPanel.setFocusable(false); , but that doesn't help.
Thanks for your help!
Edit:
tfTitle.requestFocusInWindow();
taDesc.setLineWrap(true);
taDesc.setWrapStyleWord(true);
overlayPanel.setBackground(new Color(20,20,20, 150));
overlayPanel.setVisible(false);
layeredPane2.moveToFront(popupPanel);
layeredPane2.moveToBack(backPanel);
popupPanel.setVisible(false);

It's hard to answer the questions about the stray and visible objects without seeing your component hierarchy. This is only part of the answer.
I assume you have a panel with an OverlayLayout. It's a common trap how the layer Z position should be specified:
add(popupPanel, 800); // Doesn't work
add(popupPanel, Integer.valueOf(800)); // Works
You can prevent clickthrough to lower panels in this way:
// Prevent click-through to lower layers
popupPanel.addMouseListener(new MouseInputAdapter() { });
If you, additionally, want to close the panel when the user clicks on the darkened region outside the panel, it instead becomes like this:
MouseListener closeAdapter = new MouseInputAdapter() {
@Override
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent ignored) {
popupPanel.setVisible(false);
}
};
popupPanel.addMouseListener(closeAdapter);
// Prevent click-through to lower layers
taskCreatedPanel.addMouseListener(new MouseInputAdapter() { });

You must useOverlayLayoutin order to have a defined Z ordering of it's direct children. And which is the dark background?

Since there were only three panels, and I am using Layered Pane, so I just used moveToFront and moveToBack for ordering.

I suggest making overlayPanel part of the popupPanel, by renaming popupPanel to taskCreatedPanel and nesting it inside overlayPanel, and then renaming overlayPanel to popupPanel. That way my code snippets fits your gui.
