Hello Marzo

I can recommend a program called JFrameBuilder. I found it very useful it design my interfaces and then it generates the code for various Swing Components.

It shows the effect of setting each property of various Swing Components, just by the current changes. Then you will can the code immediately. Not like others I've found which hide it away. for example, If you want to know how to show an image on your interface, or how to use JTabbedPane properly etc. anyway I think its worth a look.

Hello Jeff

Try to use setPreferredSize(), setMaximumSize() or setMinimumSize() insteaded of setSize(), It will work as long as you are using a layout manager for the parent panel.

Hello Colin

See this example code:
UsingGridLayout.java

Hello Tom

Try the following code instead.
---------------
Toolkit kit = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
Dimension screenSize = kit.getScreenSize();
int screenHeight = screenSize.height;
int screenWidth = screenSize.width;

this.setSize(screenWidth, screenHeight);

Btw, I could recommend you to use JFrameBuilder to try that. Quickly to see what's going on, and Quickly to get the GUI code generated for you.

Hi Cathy

You may add a label in the first and a JPanel in the second column. The JPanel will resize to cover the enter cell. Then you add a button into that JPanel, and set the size of the button by setPreferredSize.

Hi Maha

Try JFrameBuilder which generates human readable GUI code.

Hi Dave

I have not been using JDateChooser. Could you tell me where to get JDateChooser? Thanks in advance.

Try

--------
jTextField1.setEditable(true);

Hi mihir

Using HTML instead of plain text in JTextPane

Hi nabi

You could try to call the following code, after click on the button of panel2. Hope it works.

---------------
panel3.revalidate()
or
panel3.repaint()
or
thelabel.repaint()

Hi Tom

Set the preferred size of the component which is added into the JSplitPane instead. It must work.

The 2nd method is better and clearer.

Hello Maha

Try this code.
