How to avoid dragging the Frame by clicking TitleBar?

[Vasu Reddy]

Hi,

You can do that by adding component listener to your frame. Here i am giving simple program.

   
 
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
 
public class UnmovableFrame extends JFrame{

public UnmovableFrame() {
super("Test Frame");
setSize(500,400);

addComponentListener(new ComponentAdapter() {
/// This can be used to resize the frame;
public void componentResized(ComponentEvent e) {
//setSize(300,400); 
}
public void componentMoved(ComponentEvent e) {
setLocation(0,0);
}
});
}

public static void main(String[] args) {

UnmovableFrame uFrame = new UnmovableFrame();
uFrame.show();
}
}

You might consider using a raw window instead of a frame. If there's no title bar, the user won't be using it to move the window.

Problem with that code is the frame is still movable, it just goes back to where it started after it's moved. I'm not aware of anyway to achieve this short of creating an undecorated window and painting a titlebar yourself. I don't think you have control over the title bar otherwise since it's part of the OS and not Java.
