Removing JFrame from taskbar in Java

Question

I quickly looked through the topic, but did not find something like that.

My query: how can I prevent a child window from appearing on the windows taskbar when it is displayed?

Answer 1

You need to use JDialog instead of JFrame

Answer 2

JDK 1.7 offers you the setType method. Use the following method.

JFrame.setType(javax.swing.JFrame.Type.UTILITY)
