I'd like to make a login bar for an application and I can't figure out how to organize a series of JLabels and JTextFields such that they are organized in a horizontal grid without these same components being resized to fit each cell. I also want to make sure that the group of components isn't resized below a certain width. How can this ...
I am trying to have several JTextFields on a single row, but I don't want them to have the same width. How can I control the width and make some of them wider than others? I want that they together take up 100% of the total width, so it would be good if I could use some kind of weigthing. I have tried with .setColumns() but it doesn't m...
I have implemented a Java Swing component that implements Printable. If I add the component to a JFrame, and do this.pack(); on the JFrame, it prints perfect. But if I don't add the component to a JFrame, just a blank page is printed. This code gives a great printout: final PrintablePanel p = new PrintablePanel(pageFormat); new JFrame(...

These composites should span/grasp/embrace every element they contain. There can be two or more elements in the same composite and a composite can contain another composite. This i...

Oh hay there, didn't see you. I was wondering if there is a better, more efficient way of formatting the labels, panels, and buttons in java then what I have done below. Here is my code, I want to make Welcome, the date, and the button to all be on separate lines. And the only logical way of doing so is creating blank labels, right? pri...
I have an annoying problem with Java’s layout managers. I have the following situation: In a panel A are two other panels B with an absolute layout and C with a FlowLayout. B is highly customized and has a fixed size set via setPreferredSize. C should have the same fixed width as B but otherwise be of a variable height, depending on how ...
Is it possible to completely emulate the behavior of a GridLayout with the GridBagLayout manager? Basically, I have a 8x8 grid in which each cell should have the same width and height. The GridLayout automatically did this. But I want to add another row and column to the grid which size is not the same as the other ones. That row/column...

To define minimal size successfully, I have to do the following: // setting minimal width AND height Dimension min = new Dimension(100, 100); comp.setMinimumSize(min); comp.setPreferredSize(min); comp.setSize(min); When I left one line out it doesn't work, which is strange, but it's not the point. What do I do to limit just one of tw...
