How to Hide a Task in Java JFrame
The Java "visible" property lets you show and hide any task in the JFrame window. A JFrame is the main window that shows the information to the user, so you place each button, panel, label and text box task on the JFrame window when you design and code your interface. The visibility set to "false" hides the task until you want to display it to the user.
