Question

Problem with JEditor Pane while resizing the frame

Answer 1

A:

Small working example. Show us your code else we won't be able to tell where your problem lies

import javax.swing.*;
public class Test {
  public static void main (String args[]) {
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
      public void run() {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("JScrollPane+JEditorPane");
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.add(new JScrollPane(new JEditorPane()));
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);
      }
    });
  }
}

Answer 2

A:

The problem is you set weightX/Y values for the scroll pane, but not the panel.

Why are you adding the scroll pane to a panel and then adding the panel to the frame? The panel is unnecessary.

hi camickr ... i have the constraint like that i need to add the scrollpane to a panel and then add it to a frame .. still i have problem ..how to resolve ?

I gave you the answer. In fact I gave you two suggestions. If you want a 3rd suggestion then listen to the advice you got earlier and you a more appropriate combination of layout managers. There is no need to nest GrigBagLayouts. Other layout managers are easier to use and understand.

Answer 3

A:

I suggest not using GridBagLayout. There are plenty of more modern layout managers out there (MiGLayout, FormLayout, SpringLayout...), and for that matter you can almost always get what you want just by nesting JPanels with BorderLayouts. This will also make your layout problems much easier to diagnose.

Seriously, I've been programming in Java since 1995 and with Swing since 1998, and I've never bothered to learn GridBagLayout properly. It's just not worth the effort.

is the above layouts are custom one or they are present in jdk itself?

Sidharth 2009-11-12 10:01:09

SpringLayout is in the JDK since Java 1.4.

(And BorderLayout has been in Swing forever.)
