Great vid, love the idea of how to set a background. But I got 1 anoying thing. When I set my jPanel to preffered size [400,300], I still get a bigger screen than I actually wanted. Does anybody know how to fix this?

Thanks in advance

Just a quick question.

Why are you using NetBeans?

More fun to use Eclipse & just write code. (-:

[hasinthawk]

@LoaieProject I have never used eclipse bro..

great vid, but there is one problem

Why the button "cancel" turn to "ca..."

when you run the prog?

I have the same problem with text box and other buttons

that work good before I entered the background Pic.

Thanks

[joaxe09]

what property did you choose to add the image . . I could not see it well in your vid . .

[hamid1455]

@joaxe09 he made a jLabel and then set the icon to the path of the picture and selected his picture

[dalviamit19]

hi... is there a way we can add video's or swf to a jframe or a button...?? thnx..!

[hamid1455]

@dalviamit19 you need the java media framework JAR plugin to be able to do that stuff.

THANKS SO EFFIN MUCH FOR THIS TUTORIAL!!!! I SPEND SO MUCH TIME FINDIN HOW TO PUT A LABEL IMAGE UNDER A CONTAINER BUT COULDNT CUZ THE STUFF LAYOUT WAS SET TO FREESYLE.

[hasinthawk]

@Ziirex You are welcome bro

[caverna2000]

The problem is. i already created all the Frame with free layout. So, when i change to null layout all the components go to the left side of the screen all screw up.

How can i avoid it?

[hamid1455]

@caverna2000 There's really no way to avoid it, since the components are never really "locked" into position. Its best to start your whole project with null layout if you plan on using a background image in the future.
