layout-manager

Hello I would like to make this TextArea stick to the windows size whene I resize it by mouse, the same way as lower buttons does. This is the code it is perfectly working no bugs, please have a glance at it. import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Component; import java.awt.Container; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.FlowLayout; import java.awt.GridBagConstraints; import java.awt.GridBagLayout; import java.awt.GridLayout; import java.awt.LayoutManager; import javax.swing.BoxLayout; import javax.swing.JButton; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax

I'm making an application to act as a hub of some sorts, where the user can store shortcuts to their favorite applications and easily launch them. I'm having some problems with FlowLayout , though. When I use GridLayout , the components display perfectly. When I use FlowLayout , nothing displays at all. GridLayout: FlowLayout: All I have changed is the LayoutManager . When I call getComponentCount , they both respond with 9. I thought this post was pretty long, so I put a snippet of my code on Code Tidy (from Pastebin) Thank you in advance for your help! 1) FlowLayout pretty accepting

I'd like to create a JOptionPane that allows a user to select an IP address and port to connect to. It should be structured as such, IP Address: [textfield here] Port: [textfield here] Cancel OK The labels should be aligned to the left, and the textfields should be left aligned too. I can't really model the storyboard here, but basically the textfields shouldn't be misaligned, even if there is a space between the labels and the textfields. Each label and textfield pair should be on seperate lines, and the Cancel OK buttons should be aligned to the right, below the textboxes. Is there any way

how to stick JLabel in GlassPane to rellative, floating coordinates from JProgressBar without using ComponentListener or another listener, is there built_in notifiers in Standard LayoutManagers that can notify about its internal state, and can be accesible for override, instead my attempt with ComponentListener and NullLayout . SSCCE about ComponentListener and with NullLayout import java.awt.Container; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.FlowLayout; import java.awt.GridBagConstraints; import java.awt.event.ComponentAdapter; import java.awt.event.ComponentEvent; import javax.swing

I have this vexing source written to demonstrate a layout for a game screen mentioned on another question . It puts buttons (or labels, choosable at start-up) into a GridBagLayout . If you choose to not use buttons when prompted (before the GUI appears) the entire GUI is nice and compact with no gaps. But if you choose to use buttons it will (if your set up is like mine) look something like this.. Note the red horizontal lines. That is the BG color of the panel showing through. Those lines are not seen when the GUI uses labels. Stretch the GUI a bit to see that it is not even putting a red

So basically I want to create this sort of a GUI, but because of my inexperience with Java GUIs, I cannot figure out which Layout Manager to use. I've tried Flow, Border, Grid, but none of them allow me to create this sort of a GUI without messing up the alignments somewhere. Any suggestions? How should I decide on a layout manager in the future, or is it something which will come with experience? I'd prefer to use a simple to use layout, as this is a very basic GUI and I don't think something like MiGLayout should be necessary. I'd use a combination of compound panels and layouts. Apart from

Someone can tell why the combobox is not showing ? I have a Controller: public class TestController extends JPanel { TestView cgView; public TestController() { setLayout(null); cgView=new TestView(); add(cgView); } public static void main(String[] args) { SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { JFrame fr = new JFrame("testt"); fr.setSize(1200,1000); fr.setResizable(false); TestController cgc=new TestController(); fr.setBackground(Color.white); fr.setVisible(true); fr.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); fr.add(cgc); } }); } } And a view public class TestView
