Making a robust, resizable Swing Chess GUI [closed]

问题


How would I go about making this resizable Chess GUI?

Our company has been tasked with making a Chess game. It needs to work on Windows, OS X and Linux/Unix machines, and we have chosen Java to achieve this, while maintaining a common code-base (handy for both maintenance, and keeping costs down).

My task is to create the GUI. The User Design Team has cleared the following spec. with the client.

The chess game (Chess Champ) will be robust to resizing and straightforward, it includes:

  • A tool-bar at the top, with UI components:
    • New button
    • Save button
    • Restore button
    • Resign button
    • A label for providing messages to the player.

On the left hand side of the game, we need an area which will be reserved for future use, it might include things like:

  • Lists of captured pieces
  • A selector for choice of piece when promoting pawns
  • Game statistics
  • Hints, etc.

The details of this are are still being settled with the client and the Logic Team. So for the moment, simply mark it with a label containing ? as text.

The rest of the GUI will consist of the chess board itself. It will have:

  • The main area for the chess board. If the user points at a chess piece, it should show focus with a border. It should also be keyboard accessible. The client will be supplying multiple sprite sheets of chess pieces (of a variety of sizes, styles and colors) to allow the user to change the look of the game.
  • The chess board will have labels indicating the columns (left to right: A, B, C, D, E, F, G & H) and rows (top to bottom: 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1).
  • The chess board and column/row labels will be bordered by a 1px black border, with an 8px padding around that.
  • As the player increases the size of the game, the chess board should remain square, but otherwise fill the available space.
  • The background color behind the chess board should be ochre, but in the mock-ups below we have made the area behind the chess board green in order to highlight the resize behavior.

Notes

  • The chess board complete with columns on the left and above it is provided by a 9x9 GridLayout. The first cell of the grid layout is a label with no text.

  • To simplify the game logic though, we maintain a separate 8x8 array of buttons.

  • To allow keyboard functionality we use buttons for the chess board places. This also provides inbuilt focus indication. The margin of the button is removed to allow them to shrink to the size of the icon. We can add an ActionListener to the button and it will respond to both keyboard and mouse events.

  • To maintain a square board, we employ a little trickery. The chess board is added to a GridBagLayout as the only component with no GridBagContraints specified. That way it is always centered. To get the resizing behavior required, the chess board queries the actual size of the parent component, and returns a preferred size that is the maximum it can, while still square and not exceeding the smaller size of the width or height of the parent.

  • The chess piece image was obtained from Example images for code and mark-up Q&As, which was in turn developed out of 'Fill' Unicode characters in labels.

    Using images is simpler, whereas filling Unicode characters is more versatile as well as being 'lighter'. I.E. to support 4 different colors in 3 separate sizes of 3 different chess piece styles would require 36 separate sprite sheets!

I notice that when resizing you can get a small gap between the chessboard and the right/botton line border. This happens with a GridLayout because the space is not always divisible by 9.

You are probably looking for solutions using the standard JDK, but if you would like to get rid of this small gap then you can use the Relative Layout to manage the chess board and labels. The gap will still exist but I have moved it to the labels so you can't easily see the difference.
