Minimum form size with grid bag layout
in [Java Programming]
|
From: Marcin Rzeźnicki on 24 Oct 2009 21:49 Hi all, Is there a way to specify minimum form size using grid bag? I set minimum sizes on components I don't want to be resized below certain size, but it does not seem to respect it whatsoever. I am not posting code 'cause it is generated by Net Beans.

Play with my GridBagLayout tester program, http://rabbitbrush.frazmtn.com/gridbagtester.html Use the sample layout #3 and right click on a component and set the minimum size, then grab the lower right corner and squeeze the components. You can get a good idea of how GBL works with minimum sizes playing with it. -- Knute Johnson email s/nospam/knute2009/ -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service ------->>>>>>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<<<<<------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access

The re-sizable panel which you provided can be shrunk to any size despite playing with min sizes of components belonging to it and its own settings.

Yes you can always make the container smaller than the components it holds. If you call pack() however it will shrink the components to their preferred sizes. If you further shrink the container, the components will shrink immediately to their minimum sizes. If you wish to control the minimum size of a container with GBL, one way is to set the preferred size of the components and call pack(). -- Knute Johnson email s/nospam/knute2009/ -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service ------->>>>>>http://www.NewsDemon.com<<<<<<------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |
