I have a program with mutliple JFrames. I want to draw lines on only one of these. It's a simple hangman program, so only the actual game page should have these lines on it. (These lines will make up the noose part so should be drawn every time right away.) Attempted to add a painter class to the JFrame in question based on some other similar QAs I found, but it doesn't seem to be working.

class Painter extends JPanel{
public Painter(){
}
@Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g){
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawString("This is a test.",50,50);
g.drawLine(20, 80, 20, 200);
}
}
