When doing Java JFrame design, I need to edit the font size and font type manually each time drag and drop from the Swing palette. The default font of Java Swing components is Tahoma 11 plain.
What I want is the font size and font type to be set to Tahoma 15 plain when I drag JTextfield
and then JLabel
. So I don’t need to change manually anymore.
We change the Font Size parameter to change the size of the JLabel Font. The use of the Font() function is shown below: Object. setFont(new Font("Font-Style", Font-Weight, Font Size));
You can't actually change the size of an existing Font object. The best way to achieve a similar effect is to use the deriveFont(size) method to create a new almost identical Font that is a different size.
The default text size in browsers is 16px.
Adjusting the UIDefaults
is one way. Another is to design a pluggable look & feel.
This is not a netbeans platform problem. Use the UIManager class to set the Font for the whole program. Hope these links will help you.
