>>>> it act diffrently

How so ?

What is your "debug mode" ? How to you toggle between modes ? What logic do you use ? What is in the debug statements that is not in the non-debug ?

Sounds like you need to debug your debug !

***my program got a number :
remove all textfiled in a panel and then adding textfiled to apanel
and then got a number again...

when runing in non debug mode if I had 4 textfileds and now i choose 2.
there will remain 4.
where in debug mode i wil have two ( as wanted. )

***I toggle between modes using diffrent run "command ( F6 vs alt+F5 )


*** How can I know my "debug mode" ?

 private  void    PrintWordCell( int num) {
        jPanelWord.removeAll();
        jPanelWord.doLayout();
        MaskFormatter formatter=null;
        try{
            formatter = new MaskFormatter("?");           
            WordToFind=new javax.swing.JFormattedTextField[num];
            for ( int i=0; i<num;i++) {
                WordToFind[i]=new javax.swing.JFormattedTextField(formatter);
                WordToFind[i].setPreferredSize(new java.awt.Dimension(20,20));
                jPanelWord.add(WordToFind[i]);
            }
        }
        catch (java.text.ParseException x){
            x.printStackTrace();
        }
        jPanelWord.validate();
    }

Wonderful answer!
Run command F5 or F6.
Of course we all use the same IDE like you - there is surely no need to mention which.

Do you switch to your IDE while degugging?
This will probably fire a new 'repaint' event, so the way your program is run is diffently.

Did you try jPanelWorld.updateUI (); instead of 'validate ()'.
Only guessing...

I was assuming you were using a linux console ... and was trying to work what the heck F5/F6 would do .... so YES - it soes matter what OS, IDE and environent you are using !!!

I never really understood when using validate, revalidate, invalidate or updateUI.

how awkward allways to find out by experiment...
