I am adding a JMenuItem
(Show History) that will toggle the appearance of a JPanel
upon click. But after doing so, I want to change the title of that menu item to state the opposite action (Hide History). Is there a way to change just the text for that menu item, or must I remove the old JMenuItem
and add a new one?
JMenuItem history = new JMenuItem("Show History");
history.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
//code here to show the history
//history.changeText("Hide History") OR viewMenu.remove(history) and create/add new one
}
});
viewMenu.add(history);
