To set the alignment of the label’s content along the X axis on the right, use the setHorizontalAlignment() method and set the location. Let us first set a label component. We have set the label background color as well so that we can check the alignment of the label’s content properly −JLabel label = new JLabel("Stationery"); label.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(190, 100)); label.setOpaque(true); label.setBackground(Color.GREEN); label.setForeground(Color.WHITE);Now, we will align the label content along the X axis on the top by seeting location as RIGHT −label.setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.RIGHT);The following is an example: to set the alignment of the label content along the X axis on the right ...

To set different height for multiple rows, use the setRowHeight() method for separate rows for which you want to increase the row height. Let us first see an example to create a table with same height for all the rows −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Font; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JScrollPane; import javax.swing.JTable; import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] argv) throws Exception {       DefaultTableModel tableModel = new DefaultTableModel();       JTable table = new JTable(tableModel);       tableModel.addColumn("Language/ Technology");       tableModel.addColumn("Text Tutorial");       tableModel.addColumn("Video Tutorial");     ...

At first, let us first create a slider in Java −JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, 100, 40); slider.setMinorTickSpacing(10); slider.setMajorTickSpacing(20); slider.setPaintTicks(true); slider.setPaintLabels(true);Now, we will snap closest tick mark value as shown below −slider.setSnapToTicks(true);The following is an example to create a JSlider that snap to the closest tick mark −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Font; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JSlider; import javax.swing.WindowConstants; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       JFrame frame = new JFrame("Frame with Slider");       JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, 100, 40);       slider.setMinorTickSpacing(10);     ...

Yes, we can remove the title bar of a frame using the setUndecorated() method. Set it to TRUE if you don’t want to remove the Title Bar.The following is an example to remove the title bar of a frame in Java −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.GridLayout; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JPasswordField; import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.SwingConstants; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {       JFrame frame = new JFrame("Login!");       JLabel label1, label2, label3;       frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(2, 2));       label1 = new JLabel("DeptId", SwingConstants.CENTER);       ...

To change the maximum value of a slider in Java, use the setMaximum() method wherein set the maximum value.Let’s say the following is our slider in Java −JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, 100, 55); slider.setMinorTickSpacing(10); slider.setMajorTickSpacing(25); slider.setPaintTicks(true); slider.setPaintLabels(true);Now, set the maximum value −slider.setMaximum(150);The following is an example to change the maximum value of a slidier −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.Color; import java.awt.Font; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JSlider; import javax.swing.WindowConstants; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] args) {       JFrame frame = new JFrame("Frame with Slider");       JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, ...

To resize and position JFrame, use the Dimensions class. Here, we have set the bounds for the frame −int width = 500; int height = 400; Dimension size = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize(); frame.setBounds((int) size.getWidth() - width, 0, width, height);The following is an example to resize and poisiton a frame −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.GridLayout; import java.awt.Toolkit; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JPasswordField; import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.SwingConstants; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {       JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);       JFrame frame = new JFrame("Register!");       JLabel label1, label2, label3;       ...

Let us first create three components −JComponent one = new JLabel("Label One"); one.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.yellow)); JComponent two = new JLabel("Label Two"); two.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.orange)); JComponent three = new JLabel("Label Three"); three.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.blue));Now, we will split one and two components.JSplitPane split1 = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, one, two); split1.setDividerLocation(0.5); split1.setDividerSize(2);After that the above splitted pane would be splitted with component three making the process nested −JSplitPane split2 = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, split1, three ); split2.setDividerLocation(0.9); split2.setDividerSize(2);The following is an example to create nested JSplitPane −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Color; import javax.swing.BorderFactory; import javax.swing.JComponent; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JSplitPane; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] ...

Set Row Header View using the setRowHeaderView() method. Let us first create a KScrollPane and set a list −List myList = new ArrayList(10); for (int index = 0; index < 20; index++) {    myList.add("List Item " + index); } final JList list = new JList(myList.toArray(new String[myList.size()])); JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(); scrollPane.setViewportView(list);Now, set the row header view −scrollPane.setRowHeaderView(new JLabel("All List Items "));The following is an example to set row header view for JScrollPane in Java −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.util.ArrayList; import java.util.List; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JList; import javax.swing.JPanel; import javax.swing.JScrollPane; public class SwingDemo {    public ...

To create a top-bottom split pane, let us create two components and split them −JComponent one = new JLabel("Top Split"); one.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.MAGENTA)); JComponent two = new JLabel("Bottom Split"); two.setBorder(BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.ORANGE));Now, we will split them. The two components will be split one on top of the other using VERTICAL_PANE constant −JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, one, two);The following is an example to create a top-bottom split pane in Java −Examplepackage my; import java.awt.Color; import javax.swing.BorderFactory; import javax.swing.JComponent; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JLabel; import javax.swing.JSplitPane; public class SwingDemo {    public static void main(String[] a) {       JFrame frame = new JFrame("SplitPane Demo"); ...

Let’s say we have a menu and within that we need to set the JRadioButtonMenuItem. Here’s the Menu −JMenu editMenu = new JMenu("Edit"); editMenu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_E); menuBar.add(editMenu);Now, set the editMenu and add it to the MenuBar −JMenu editMenu = new JMenu("Edit"); editMenu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_E); menuBar.add(editMenu);Now, create Options Menu and add it to the editMenu −JMenu optionsMenu = new JMenu("Options"); optionsMenu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_O); editMenu.add(optionsMenu);Now, set the JRadioButtonMenuItem and add it to the editMenu created above −ButtonGroup group = new ButtonGroup(); JRadioButtonMenuItem radioMenuItem = new JRadioButtonMenuItem("SmartInsertMode", true); radioMenuItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_I); optionsMenu.add(radioMenuItem); group.add(radioMenuItem); JRadioButtonMenuItem radioMenuItem2 = new JRadioButtonMenuItem("SmartDeleteMode"); radioMenuItem.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_D); optionsMenu.add(radioMenuItem2); group.add(radioMenuItem2);The following is an example add JRadioButtonMenuItem in Java −Examplepackage my; ...
