Anyone know why the following code won't work:

    JFrame newFrame = new
JFrame(jTabbedPane1.getTitleAt(jTabbedPane1.getSelectedIndex()));
    FileEditorPane lineEditor = (FileEditorPane)
jTabbedPane1.getSelectedComponent();
    jTabbedPane1.removeTabAt(jTabbedPane1.getSelectedIndex());
    newFrame.getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout());
    newFrame.getContentPane().add(lineEditor);
    Solmar.Utils.FrameTools.formatFrame(newFrame, true, 600, 500, true);

Whereas the following will:

    FileEditorPane lineEditor = new FileEditorPane();
    newFrame.getContentPane().setLayout(new GridLayout());
    newFrame.getContentPane().add(lineEditor);
    Solmar.Utils.FrameTools.formatFrame(newFrame, true, 600, 500, true);

Basically I am taking a JPanel (which is what the FileEditorPane is at
its root) and trying to remove it from a JTabbedPane and then trying to
show it (the FileEditorPane) in a JFrame.  Basically I get a blank
JFrame.

It seems that once a component is added to a JTabbedPane that I can't
get it out without hosing the component OR that the component is not
displaying itself in the JFrame - I've tried using setVisible(true) on
the component to no avail.
