I'm trying to have an UI using IntelliJ GUI Form. I've created a class that extends the JFrame and contains only the JTabbedPane with 2 Tabs each one having a JPanel. Then 2 other classes that extends JPanel. But, no panel displays when launching.
I've tried to invalidate, repaint and revalidate the panels
//main class
import javax.swing.*;
public class jumpManMain {
public static void main (String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
final JFrame frame = new frmTabs();
});
}
}
// tabbedpanel class
public class frmTabs extends JFrame implements constants{
private JTabbedPane tabbedPane;
private JPanel panelTab1;
private JPanel panelTab2;
public frmTabs()
{
setContentPane(tabbedPane);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setBounds(FORM_LEFT, FORM_TOP, FORM_WIDTH, FORM_HEIGHT);
panelTab1 = new panel1();
panelTab2 = new panel2();
pack();
setVisible(true);
setSize(FORM_WIDTH,FORM_HEIGHT);
ChangeListener changeListener = new ChangeListener() {
public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent changeEvent) {
JTabbedPane sourceTabbedPane = (JTabbedPane) changeEvent.getSource();
int index = sourceTabbedPane.getSelectedIndex();
System.out.println("Tab changed to: " + sourceTabbedPane.getTitleAt(index));
panelTab1.revalidate();
panelTab1.repaint();
panelTab2.revalidate();
panelTab2.repaint();
}
};
tabbedPane.addChangeListener(changeListener);
}
}
//tabs form generated by IntelliJ

Effectively using IntelliJ GUI the solution is this one:
1) Create main class
public class jManagerMainUI extends JFrame {
private JPanel panelTab1;
private JPanel panelTab2;
private JTabbedPane tabbedPane;
public jManagerMainUI(String param) {
setContentPane(tabbedPane);
tabbedPane.setBounds(FORM_LEFT, FORM_TOP, FORM_WIDTH, FORM_HEIGHT);
setDefaultCloseOperation(3);
setBounds(FORM_LEFT, FORM_TOP, FORM_WIDTH, FORM_HEIGHT);
tabbedPane.setComponentAt(0,new jA(param).getPanel());
tabbedPane.setComponentAt(1,new jC(param).getPanel());
pack();
setVisible(true);
setSize(FORM_WIDTH, FORM_HEIGHT);
}
}
2) Create one class for each tab that will return the reference to the panel
public class jA extends JFrame {
private JPanel panelA;
//Tab A
private JButton btAddA;
public JPanel getPanel() {
return panelA;
}
