I'd like to have 2 JOptionPanes next to each other, one displaying info before a sort, one displaying after a sort. Currently my program just lays the panes on top of each other and making comparing the pre and post data difficult.

    Makes no sense to have two option panes with two sets of "Ok" "Cancel" buttons. However you can add a custom panel to a JOptionPane. See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17617390/how-to-set-manage-the-layout-of-joptionpane/17617861#17617861 for an example. The other option is to just create your own JDialog with whatever components you want. – camickr Sep 24 '21 at 23:44

    `JOptionPane` isn't really the best choice of this. Instead, you should start with two `JPanel`s, each displaying the results you want, then add those to a third `JPanel` using a `GridLayout` and then finally, you can display that via a `JOptionPane` or on any window based component – MadProgrammer Sep 24 '21 at 23:56
