Not sure if what I need is possible. I have a container (JPanel) that contains some internal elements. I was wondering if it is possible to force internal elements to fit into the container's size. I need them to be fully visible i.e., resize to fit inside the Panel's size and not cut some parts of the internal elements.
Scrolling is not an option.
Is this possible by using a Layout or something?
EDIT: Important clarification: The thing is that I do not have access to the internal elements neither to their properties so I would say that a Layoutmanager capable of resizing child elements to fit to its size is needed. I tested BorderLayout and GridBagLayout but the result is always the same, the internal elements are cut out.

Select all components of JFrame, right click, select 'Auto Resizing', check for both Horizontal and Vertical, close . Show activity on this post. Calling pack() will usually result in the window being resized to fit the contents' preferred size.
To resize a frame, There is a method JFrame. setSize(int width, int height) which takes two parameters width and height.
Java Swing Bootcamp | Build Java GUI Applications With Swing Containers are an integral part of SWING GUI components. A container provides a space where a component can be located. A Container in AWT is a component itself and it provides the capability to add a component to itself.
It's for exactly that reason that LayoutManagers exist. All the LayoutManagers work for simple containers directly, excluding GridBagLayout which is to able to handle most complete GUIs directly.
For most complete GUI's you have some choices as follows:
JPanel and each has child JPanels with the same or different LayoutManager
GridBagLayout
