问题
BACKGROUND:- I am required to make a Swing GUI using Netbeans GUI Builder. The first sub-task is to display an image in the entire background.
I have followed a tutorial to get that done. I have basically made a JFrame, set its layout to GridBagLayout and then added a transparent (by unchecking the opaque property) JPanel to it. (Question 1)
After that I added a JLabel to the JFrame, Removed its text and added an image to it. (Question 2)
QUESTIONS:-
First, when I add the JPanel, it does not show its resize handles. I Googled a bit and found this tutorial, in which it can be seen that when they create a JPanel, it automatically shows its resize handles, which can be dragged to resize it.
But mine doesn't (screenshot below) So is there some property or something which can be adjusted so that I can resize it? Because my intention is to use this transparent panels to contain components (buttons etc.) on the background, so it should elapse the entire screen/window/JFrame parent.
Second, since the image I am using has some 1024x768 dimensions, so it appears to be way bigger than its parent components.
Since I am a noob and I am not sure if the size of the background image needs to be adjusted by somehow measuring the pixel width and pixel height of the parent and then converting the actual image's size to that size in some program like Adobe Photoshop. But I am sure there must a more practical way to do that.
I want the image to automatically resize itself according to the size of the parent when it is initially placed on on its parent JLabel. How can I do that? Please tell me the easiest way, preferably in the GUI Builder.
I also want to ensure that the image size, its parent JLabel's size, JPanel's size will all adjust to the frame when the I change the size of the window later when using this application, or if there is a way to disable the sizing of the window completely.

" or if there is a way to disable the sizing of the window completely."
You can set the resizable property of the frame to false. From NetBeans GUI Builder
- Highlight/select the frame component from the design view, or from the navigator window.
- Go to the properties window on the right and look for the property
resizableand make sure it's unchecked
"I also want to ensure that the image size, its parent JLabel's size, JPanel's size will all adjust to the frame when the I change the size of the window"
One way is to paint the background onto the background panel, instead of using a label with an icon. You can see an example of that here. For the GUI Builder, the easiest way (without having to edit the auto-generated code, which I don't recommend, if you don't know what you are doing) is to use a JPanel form instead of a JFrame form. Paint on the JPanel form, then you can add that JPanel form to the JFrame form. You can see here for an easy way to add the JPanel form to the JFrame form.
See Performing Custom Painting to learn more about painting
Can also have a look at this StretchIcon that you can use with a label.
UPDATE
So your JPanel form class will ultimately look something like this
public class PanelForm extends javax.swing.JPanel {
private BufferedImage image;
public PanelForm() {
try {
image = ImageIO.read(getClass().getResource("/path/to/image/png"));
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
@Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight(), this);
}
@Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return new Dimension(500, 500);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.add(new PanelForm()); // <--- add it here
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.pack();
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
});
}
}
