I use outputPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(outputPanel, BoxLayout.Y_AXIS));
and then I add elements (for example JLabels, JButtons) to the outputPanel
. For example: outputPanel.add(submitButton);
.
I see that all added elements are "centered". It is good, because I do want my elements to be in the center. When I write "center" I mean "equal distance from left and right". But the problem is that the left part of the element is put into the center. And I want to have center of elements to be put into the center. How can I get this behavior?
game. setLocationRelativeTo(null); and your JFrame game will be placed in the center of the screen.
add(panel, BorderLayout. CENTER);
public class BoxLayout extends Object implements LayoutManager2, Serializable. A layout manager that allows multiple components to be laid out either vertically or horizontally. The components will not wrap so, for example, a vertical arrangement of components will stay vertically arranged when the frame is resized.
To create a new frame you type: JFrame frame = new JFrame(); Inside the constructor method we need to make sure that all of the buttons are put in the grid layout. To do this we set the layout of frame by typing: frame. setLayout(new GridLayout(x, y));
The problem can be solved by using myLabel.setAlignmentX(Component.CENTER_ALIGNMENT);
. It works with JLabel
, JButton
and JRadioButton
