Good Day-
I'm working on JApplets in which I have two tabbedPanel. Now for the first tabbed I need to further divide the parent JPanel into two parts. For this I created two sub panels and also have used the JSplitPane class to split those into two parts.
- eastPanel
- westPanel
The windows looks like the following:
This is Resizeable as we can see the maximize button is enable. I have tried to set this method setResizeable() but I think it's only available for JFRAME.
The desired UI which I'm try to create is as following:
What I need is to restrict its size so that it won't be maximize anymore and the content is placed as it is in the JPanel. Could you please guide me which approach I should follow to achieve the desired results? Furthermore the source is as following:
public class CreatePanel extends JPanel
{
private Vector athleteList;
private JButton button1;
private CountPanel cPanel;
private TextField firstName;
private TextArea textArea;
//Constructor initializes components and organize them using certain layouts
public CreatePanel(Vector athleteList, CountPanel cPanel)
{
this.athleteList = athleteList;
this.cPanel = cPanel;
//inner Jpanels to Split the parent panel
JPanel eastPanel = new JPanel();
JPanel westPanel = new JPanel();
button1 = new JButton("Create an Athlete");
textArea = new TextArea("No Athlete");
textArea.setEditable(false);
eastPanel.setBackground(Color.RED);
westPanel.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
eastPanel.add(button1);
/* p1.add(firstName);
p2.add(textArea);*/
JSplitPane sp = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT);
sp.setResizeWeight(0.5);
sp.setDividerSize(0);
sp.add(eastPanel);
sp.add(westPanel);
//organize components here
setLayout( new GridLayout(1, 2));
// add(firstName,BorderLayout.WEST);
add(sp);
}
//ButtonListener is a listener class that listens to
//see if the button "Create an Athlete" is pushed.
//When the event occurs, it adds an athlete using the information
//entered by a user.
//It also performs error checking.
private class ButtonListener implements ActionListener
{
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
{
//TO BE COMPLETED
} //end of actionPerformed method
} //end of ButtonListener class
}
DriveClass
public class Test extends JApplet
{
private int APPLET_WIDTH = 500, APPLET_HEIGHT = 400;
private JTabbedPane tPane;
private CreatePanel createPanel;
private CountPanel countPanel;
private Vector athleteList;
//The method init initializes the Applet with a Pane with two tabs
public void init()
{
//list of athletes to be used in every panel
athleteList = new Vector();
//register panel uses the list of athletes
countPanel = new CountPanel(athleteList);
createPanel = new CreatePanel(athleteList, countPanel);
//create a tabbed pane with two tabs
tPane = new JTabbedPane();
tPane.addTab("Athlete Creation", createPanel);
tPane.addTab("Medal Count", countPanel);
getContentPane().add(tPane);
setSize (APPLET_WIDTH, APPLET_HEIGHT); //set Applet size
setPreferredSize(new Dimension(APPLET_WIDTH, APPLET_HEIGHT));
setMaximumSize(this.getPreferredSize());
setMinimumSize(this.getPreferredSize());
}
}
Help will be appreciated.Many Thanks
