I’m using Netbean’s form creator and I’m trying out some things. I’m not sure if it’s the layout manager, but when I create my own JPanel and add it to the main content pane of the my window, the size of the panel always maximizes inside the FrameView no matter what re-dimensioning methodology I use such as setSize or setPreferred size. I’m very new to AWT and Swing.
With NetBeans WYSIWYG designer it’s a peace of cake – just be sure to use Free Form Design and use mouse for resizing. Maybe the panel is itself larger than FrameView, so double click on it (you are editing it exclusively) and make it smaller. Than double click to get back to parent component and you should be fine.
Or maybe check some tutorials at NetBeans site.
