Java Forum / General / August 2007Custom JPanels inside another JPanel.
So I have this JPanel that I add a scroll pane to make it scrollable. I created a class that is a subclass of JPanel, lets call it CustomPanel. CustomPanel basically has some labels, buttons etc. What I do is add a CustomPanel to the JPanel. What I want is that CustomPanel should have the width of JPanel but it's own height. That way JPanel ultimately is contains a list of CustomPanels. What the problem is that I tried to use BoxLayout and GridLayout. Let's say that JPanel's height is 4 times the CustomPanel's one. If I add one CustomPanel, that will expand and use all of JPanels area. If I add more that 5 the CustomPanels are correctly added with the correct size. So, I can't figure out what Layout Manager to use. Any help? Thank you. > So I have this JPanel that I add a scroll pane to make it scrollable.

The is no .setOrientation on either FlowLayout nor JPanel. I am using java 1.6 if this helps. ... >Can you write me the code? (shrugs) He* probably can. How much were you offering? * I could not understand what you posted, but Joshua seemed to.

I wouldn't asked him to write anything if I didn't search first. After all, I bet it's probably 3 lines of code that he knows and doesn't need to search since he is so sure what I should do... >>> Can you write me the code? >> [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > all, I bet it's probably 3 lines of code that he knows and doesn't > need to search since he is so sure what I should do... I'd create a small simple example http://mindprod.com/jgloss/sscce.html http://www.physci.org/codes/sscce.html and post it here. ... >I looked for what he said and it seemed that it doesn't exist. My bad. After not understanding the description, I failed to carefullly read the reply, either. Perhaps Joshua meant a BoxLayout with a Y_AXIS constraint. <http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/javax/swing/BoxLayout.html#Y_AXIS> But then, see 'still do not understand the question' and that leads me to suggest that Roedy's post might contain the path to the solution for this challenge. ;-) SignatureAndrew Thompson http://www.athompson.info/andrew/ Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
