This question has been asked a lot but everywhere the answers fall short. I can get a JFrame to display a background image just fine by extending JPanel and overriding paintComponent, like so: class BackgroundPanel extends JPanel { private ImageIcon imageIcon; public BackgroundPanel() { this.imageIcon = Icons.getIcon("foo"); } @Override protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) { super.paintComponent(g); g.drawImage(imageIcon.getImage(), 0,0,imageIcon.getIconWidth(),imageIcon.getIconHeight(),this); } } But now, how do you add a component on top of that background? When I go JFrame w = new

I am writing a small game, with one JFrame that holds the main game, and another JFrame that displays the score. the problem is, when I am done constructing them, the score JFrame always ends up focused! I have tried calling scoreDisplay.toFront(), scoreDisplay.requestFocus(), and even: display.setState(JFrame.ICONIZED); display.setState(JFrame.NORMAL); Is there any way to make this work? Thanks in advance, john murano Have you consider setting the score in the same frame as the game frame? Other possible ( quick and dirty ) option is to create them in reverse order, or at least ( if score

I have a JPanel into a JFrame . I loaded a picture on the JPanel but its shown just a part of the picture: This is the part of the code where i did it: JPanel panelImg = new JPanel() { public void paintComponent(Graphics g) { Image img = new ImageIcon("Welcome.png").getImage(); Dimension size = new Dimension(img.getWidth(null), img.getHeight(null)); setPreferredSize(size); setMinimumSize(size); setMaximumSize(size); setSize(size); setLayout(null); g.drawImage(img, 0, 0, null); } }; mainFrame.add(panelImg); So this is how it looks like: The complete picture looks like this: Is there a way to

In Java, is it possible to get the Width and Height of the JFrame without the title and other borders? frame.getWidth() and frame.getHeight()1 seems to return the width including the border. Thanks. frame.getContentPane().getSize(); frame.pack(); System.out.println("frame width : "+getWidth()); System.out.println("frame height: "+getHeight()); System.out.println("content pane width : "+getContentPane().getWidth()); System.out.println("content pane height: "+getContentPane().getHeight()); System.out.println("width of left + right borders: "+(getWidth()-getContentPane ().getWidth())); System.out

I have a simple GUI: public class MyGUI extends JFrame{ public MyGUI(){ run(); } void run(){ setSize(100, 100); setVisible(true); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);// maybe an action listener here } } I would like to print out this message: System.out.println("Closed"); When the GUI is closed (when the X is pressed). How can I do that? Try this. addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() { @Override public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) { System.out.println("Closed"); e.getWindow().dispose(); } }); ersks Write this code within constructor of your JFrame : this

In my Java app, I have a JFrame window, how can I minimize it from my Java program ? minimize with frame.setState(Frame.ICONIFIED) restore with frame.setState(Frame.NORMAL) Minimize: frame.setState(Frame.ICONIFIED); Another way to minimize: frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.ICONIFIED); Normal size: frame.setState(Frame.NORMAL); Another way to normal size: frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.NORMAL); Maximize: frame.setState(Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); Another way to maximize: frame.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); Full Screen maximize: GraphicsDevice device = GraphicsEnvironment

Currently, I am using the following code to drag and move my undecordated JFrames. private void initialiseGUI(Component component){ //<editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="code"> component.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() { public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) { posX = e.getX(); posY = e.getY(); } }); component.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseAdapter() { public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent evt) { //sets frame position when mouse dragged Rectangle rectangle = getBounds(); getGUI().setBounds(evt.getXOnScreen() - posX, evt.getYOnScreen() - posY, rectangle.width, rectangle.height); } })
