I tried to get with the panel.getSize()
but it said java.awt.Dimension[width=0,height=0]
I tried panel.getHeight()
but it said it is 0
The Reason why your getting 0x0 as dimension is:
You did declaration to find size earlier than JFrame and JPanel to render
I assume you Did This:
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
System.out.println(panel.getSize()); // <-- This Line Triggers Earlier
panel.setVisible(true); // <-- Then This Line Renders the Panel, but late to recognize
To Fix this, Just Make Sure to Render All Objects First before getting the Info for size:
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.setVisible(true); // <-- Then This Line Renders the Panel first before recognizing
System.out.println(panel.getSize()); // <-- This Line Triggers Output Size
Bonus(in order to get info infinitely by using Listener of your choice, My Instance is MouseListener):
import java.awt.Event.*;
panel.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
@Override
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me) {
System.out.println("Size: " + panel.getSize());
panel.repaint(); //This refreshes when user tries to resize
}
});
for sample:
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import java.awt.event.*;
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Hello world");
frame.setSize(300, 300);
frame.setLocation(5, 5);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
//JPanel Created
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
//You are getting 0x0 because you did first
//System.out.println("Size: " + panel.getSize());
panel.setVisible(true);
frame.add(panel);
frame.setVisible(true);
//Solution: Get Value by event of your choice
//My instance is to use mouseListener mousePressed
panel.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
@Override
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me) {
System.out.println("Size: " + panel.getSize());
panel.repaint();
}
});
}
}
Give a thumbs up if it helps. Gladge
