Question

I have a Swing UI which contains 6 text fields and labels for the input and 1 button and texfield to show the output. now I want to make a border around these two.

I have read some materials regarding Titled borders but I think its only for single elements. Please suggest.

Answer 1

You could make a JPanel with a titled border, then put however many components you wanted in the JPanel using the content manager of your choice.

An example:

JPanel myPanel = new JPanel();
myPanel.setBorder(new TitledBorder(null, "My Title", TitledBorder.LEADING, TitledBorder.TOP, null, null));

myPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 0, 0, 0));

JButton button = new JButton("New button");
myPanel.add(button);

JLabel label = new JLabel("New label");
myPanel.add(label);
