Hi,
I have several JTables in JScrollPanes. Most have 6 or so columns of data and look great. One has thirty columns. I have the scrollpanes set to HORIZONTAL_SCROLLPANE_ALWAYS.
The table with lots of columns displays all, very small. I want to set the sizes so that most of them are not in the displayed area, the user should scroll to reach them. So far, all attempts at setting the width of a column have been unsuccessful.
Also, I suspect that the horizontal scroll bar isn't working anyway. THe vertical one is fine - it has a purple slider on it and I can scoll. However, even if I resize the columns manually to really wide, so that some columns would have to disappear out of view, I get no purple slider on the horizontal bar. Instead, the columns simply seem to disappear.
any ideas ?
Thanks,
Kate
