Java: How can I disable clicking on a panel while showing dialog?

Question

I want to disable clicking on the background panel or frame while showing a dialogue. And I want the dialogue to appear on top of this panel or frame constantly until it is closed.

How can I do this?

Answer 1

Make Dialog / JDialog modal by calling dialog.setModal(true); . This will solve both issues of clicking background panel and remaining on top of panel.

It seems like this method is obsolete so better you should use dialog.setModalityType(Dialog.ModalityType type)

Answer 2

您可以使用JOptionPane作为消息对话框。
