I'm newbie to Swing. I installed Window Builder in Eclipse to draw an interface but I got this problem. JFrame hides a part in design tab.
Here is image.
How can I fix this?

I am very new to JavaFX. As I am a swing developer, I am facing some problems with JavaFX. In swing I create a main window with JFrame. On the top I add a Menubar. When a menu item is clicked, a JInternalFrame is opened below the Menubar in a JDesktopPane. I've found this way very useful, because I can open any JInternalFrame from menubar as well as from the JInternalFrame itself. The JInternalFrame remains open until user closes them. When user presses escape button he can go back to the previously opened frame.
I've found some libraries that switch scenes. But I cannot find an equivalent way in JavaFX. Can anyone help me to achieve this ?
I have created a java program that does not use a JFrame, instead it is using a JWindow. This is exactly what i needed, an application without the windows border/title bar.
The problem is it does not show in the task bar at the bottom of the screen when its running.
Can anyone figure out how to fix this?
Use an undecorated JFrame instead.
I'm a bit new on design when it comes to WindowBuilder plugin. My application only runs at full screen and I know how to set my screen to full when it runs but I would like to know how I can design it at full screen on the "Design" tab.
Anyone can help me out?
Interface image:
WindowBuilder puts setBounds(100, 100, 450, 300) in your constructor by default.....remove this and replace it with setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); When you go back into design view, your window should be bigger to reflect that it is fullscreen.
So I made a JPanel and a JFrame using the Design functions in NetBeans and when I try to drag the panel onto the JFrame, I get the error "The component cannot be instantiated. Please make sure it is a JavaBeans component."
What I did was create an empty Frame and then create the Panel and put it all together using the panels, buttons, and text fields. I didn't modify the source code or anything. Is there some kind of code I need to add into the panel to make it work with the JFrame? Or perhaps I missed a step in the design tab? I've included a picture that shows exactly what it is I made.
jpanel
Clean and build the project (and sub projects as required).
If you're using Netbeans 7+, you can check the messages.log found in C:/Users/{username}/AppData/Roaming/NetBeans/{Netbeans version}/var/log and check for the exception that caused the problem.
I think the new 7.2 beta reports the problems to the user now (thankfully).
I am trying to learn Java Swing with the aid of the Netbeans IDE. Following this tutorial, I find myself stuck when I try adding a Panel to a JFrame.
The Panel, or any other component from the Swing Container, does not add to my design view.
I have tried dragging and right-clicking the component without success.
When I right-click the Panel component, I get various menu options including "paste item" but it is greyed out and inactive.
Just click on the palette "Swing Containers" Panel button. In 7.2 and 7.2.1 it is a toggle switch. Then go to your JPanel and you will see your new JPanel moving along with your cursor. Move it to the location you want to have it and click again. Then you can resize it to the dimensions you like...
Netbeans IDE is an excellent production tool. If you are in the learning phase however, it is always better to avoid using powerful GUI-editors, in order to gain a better understanding of the concepts. You can do that using simple text editors.
