JSplitPane : JSplitPane « Swing « Java Tutorial

1. Java Tutorial
2. Swing
3. JSplitPane

1. Allows you to display components in a single row or column.
2. JSplitPane can display two-and only two-components.
3. The components are of variable size and separated by a movable divider.

public JSplitPane()
JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane();
public JSplitPane(int newOrientation)
JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT);

public JSplitPane(int newOrientation, boolean newContinuousLayout)
JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, true);

public JSplitPane(int newOrientation, Component newLeftComponent, Component newRightComponent)
JComponent topComponent = new JButton("Top Button");
JComponent bottomComponent = new JButton("Bottom Button");
JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, topComponent, bottomComponent);

public JSplitPane(int newOrientation, boolean newContinuousLayout, Component newLeftComponent, Component newRightComponent)
JSplitPane splitPane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, true, topComponent, bottomComponent);

The continuousLayout property setting determines how the split pane reacts when the user drags the divider.

1. false (the default), only the divider is redrawn when dragged.
2. true, the JSplitPane resizes and redraws the components on each side of the divider as the user drags the divider.
