Hello
I'm having probelms with jSplitPanes
I set them up and set the left and right, or top and bottom components, however when the screen actually laods and paints itself the actuall splits are either at the top or to the left, and using the setDividerLocation(0.75) dosen't have any effect,
am i doing something silly, is there another command i should be using pre or post or is there another way of ensuring that the splits start in the place i want?!
Cheers in advance
Andy
You're probably experiencing this:
From the JSplitPane.setDividerLocation(double) docs.Quote:
If the split pane is not correctly realized and on screen, this method will have no effect (new divider location will become (current size * proportionalLocation) which is 0).
thats the one, i've re-arranged my code and set the divider locations after they are visible, which is not what i wanted, but will have to do.
From everything i've read about it it seems it sbeen around since 1.1 and Sun haven't seen fit to repair it!
Ahh well
Cheers!
You can always use setDividerLocation(int), it works on invisible widgets too.
