I have a JDesktopPane
with some JInternalframe
windows in it as seen in the image below:
When I minimize them, they don't show their full title. Is there a way to show it fully?
You might be able to override the iconifyFrame(...)
method of DefaultDesktopManager
and getPreferredSize()
method of JInternalFrame.JDesktopIcon
to set that DesktopIcon
size.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class DesktopIconWidthTest2 {
public JComponent makeUI() {
JDesktopPane desktop = new JDesktopPane();
desktop.setDesktopManager(new DefaultDesktopManager() {
@Override public void iconifyFrame(JInternalFrame f) {
Rectangle r = this.getBoundsForIconOf(f);
r.width = f.getDesktopIcon().getPreferredSize().width;
f.getDesktopIcon().setBounds(r);
super.iconifyFrame(f);
}
});
desktop.add(createFrame("looooooooooooong title #", 1));
desktop.add(createFrame("#", 0));
return desktop;
}
private JInternalFrame createFrame(String t, int i) {
JInternalFrame f = new JInternalFrame(t + i, true, true, true, true);
f.setDesktopIcon(new JInternalFrame.JDesktopIcon(f) {
@Override public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
Dimension d = f.getMinimumSize();
String title = f.getTitle();
FontMetrics fm = getFontMetrics(getFont());
//Magic Number 16: margin?
d.width += SwingUtilities.computeStringWidth(fm, title) - 16;
return d;
}
});
f.setSize(200, 100);
f.setVisible(true);
f.setLocation(5 + 40 * i, 5 + 50 * i);
return f;
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(() -> {
try {
UIManager.setLookAndFeel("javax.swing.plaf.nimbus.NimbusLookAndFeel");
// MetalLookAndFeel: UIManager.put("DesktopIcon.width", 500);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
JFrame f = new JFrame();
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.getContentPane().add(new DesktopIconWidthTest2().makeUI());
f.setSize(320, 240);
f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
f.setVisible(true);
});
}
