I have attached my code below, a screen shot of my program, and a drawing of what I want the tab to look like. I need my JPanel textPanel to appear below the JButtons on the tab LLP. I have tried to add textPanel to the tabsPanel but when I do that my tabs go away. I need the textPanel to stretch across the screen and fill the blank space below the LLP tab. But I also do not want textPanel to appear on the other tabs. The first picture shown is what the old program looked like. I was asked to start from scratch and make a better program. I cannot get the Input Output Log on my screen. But as you can see it displays what I have selected in the Port Settings option.
