Problem setting frame position

in Programming Questions • 1 year ago

Hi,

Currently i have a JDC browser on my application, and "frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(x,y));" is the code which sets the browser to appear in my application, the problem is it's always occupying half the size of the application no matter how i alter the number x and y.

Besides that whenever i set frame.setResizable(true); it won't display the browser and sometimes there will be this error "illegalArgumentException: Width(116) and Height(0) cannot be <=0

Below is part of the code:

void setup() {

size(950,650);

frame.setResizable(true)

frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,2));

browser=new aBrowser[1];

browser[0]=new aBrowser();

browser[0].initPanel(400,300);

browser[0].setURL("http://www.google.com/");

frame.add(browser[0].panel);

Hope you all could help me, thanks.

This is untested and purely a guess, but perhaps it only occupies half of the screen because you have specified two columns? See:

frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,2));

That's my understanding of how the GridLayout constructor works, anyway...
So, instead, that would be:

frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,1));

for full window?

Thanks calsign.

frame.setLayout(new GridLayout(1,1));

this would still result in half the screen, as the argument is actually determine how many column and row i suppose.

My question is that is there any function instead of this to position my web browser in my application, and how to solve the setresizable problem.
