I would like to have a JFrame come up from anther one and center it on the screen. Hoe do I do this.

Can I do it with two JFrames produced in NetBeans Design view.

This is an RTFM question, but the answer can be tricky to find, so:

<http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/frame.html>


"This example does not set the frame location, but it is easy to do so 
using either the setLocationRelativeTo or setLocation method. For 
example, the following code centers a frame onscreen:

   frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);"


Read the docs!!
