miglayout

Why does this SSCCE (with MigLayout libraries) ... public static void main(String[] args) { try { UIManager.setLookAndFeel("com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel"); } catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } JFrame frame = new JFrame(); frame.setLayout(new MigLayout(new LC().fill().insetsAll("0"))); JTabbedPane jtp = new JTabbedPane(); jtp.add(new JPanel(), "Tab 1"); jtp.add(new JPanel(), "Tab 2"); JLabel label = new JLabel("label"); JPanel panel = new JPanel(new MigLayout(new LC()

I'm trying to construct a simple status panel using MigLayout as follows: setLayout(new MigLayout("fillx", "[][p]")); // removing constructor args makes no difference add(createStatusLabel(), "span 2, wrap"); add(createProgressBar(), "growx, pushx"); add(createCancelButton(), ""); This works fine as long as the status message displayed by the status label is short enough to fit within the current panel's size (the cancel button remains right-justified, and the progress bar resizes to take up the remaining space). If the status message is too long, it is not cropped, and causes the area to

I am building a desktop app with Swing with similar functionality to Twitter. I have a "feed" page where "tweets" are displayed. I have the "tweets" in a JPanel and want to dynamically display new ones coming in by placing new "tweets" at the top of the JPanel and moving older ones down. I was trying to do this with MigLayout by using jpanel.add(tweet, "cell 0 0, wrap") however this didn't work as intended and in order to get it to display with the layout I wanted I had to call jpanel.revalidate() . This is not ideal as there could be many tweets coming in every second and redrawing the panel

All I could find so far is this (open) Sun bug/RFE entry with 426 506 votes: http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=6530906 It's in third place in the list of RFEs . Tons of people have stated that it will be included in Java 7...but does anyone have any clear information on whether MiGLayout will be included? Answered Well, it seems Chad has a point - it's not on any official list anywhere, and time is sure ticking away, so unless something big happens, it's safe to say MiGLayout apparently will not be included in Java 7 , literally in spite of 426 votes from the community. Too bad. Chad

I am adding a button to a panel using Miglayout, and try what I might, I cannot get it to go to the right end of the panel. It insists on going flush left. Oddly, the demo is kind of short on such on a example (it only shows it in the context of other buttons on the same panel. I have a panel like this: dialog ->complex display retrieved from another class OK Button here. Except that it always insists on putting it like this: dialog ->complex display retrieved from another class OK Button here. OK, I got the answer to this (finally). When adding the panel that contains the button add the

I started using MiGLayout about a month and half ago and everything is simple and works great. There's only one issue I still have that I haven't been able to fix. Let's say I want to have a row that has two buttons on the right-most side and a centered title, the title doesn't actually get centered when I do it this way: ("this" is a JPanel) this.add(labelTitle, "split, span, center"); this.add(closeButton, "east"); this.add(mainMenuButton, "east"); What happens is that "labelTitle" is centered in the remaining space available after the buttons are placed, but I actually want it to be
