        // add the frame pack make sure everything is in order

        button.addActionListener(e ->

        frame.setVisible(true); 
    }

}

I am trying to get the image from the folder to pop up in the GUI/ Dialogue box when you click "Click me for a flag". I am able to get the GUI with the prompt to click the button but when clicking the button I am not able to get the flag to pop up. Is there a way to pull the image from the folder and display it in the GUI box?

Edit: The image is located in an img folder I created within the project

  • Your question is missing key information, where the image is located relative to the class files and relative to the user's directory. Have you searched on this prior to asking, as this has been asked many times here and elsewhere. – Hovercraft Full Of Eels Mar 25 '22 at 01:21
