I've created a java desktop application in which the UI has been designed using the layout managers in swing. The UI comes up fine in my monitor (18.5 inch). However, if I try to view the UI in a smaller screen (14 inch), the layout remains the same but the contents like label/text are not getting resized. The texts are broken (followed by ...) and is unreadable. Is there any way to resize the contents depending on the screen size?

  • You can pick a layout style to be fixed, fluid etc. This is why you see changes in different resolutions – Tom Nov 01 '12 at 05:15
  • Add you're content to a `JScrollPane` or adjust the font size – MadProgrammer Nov 01 '12 at 05:16

    Perhaps it would be better to look to the combined questions of 1) What does this GUI do? 2) How can it be reorganized to make it smaller on-screen (e.g. `CardLayout`, `JTabbedPane`, `JDesktopPane` and `JInternalPane` instances..

You need to define or take panel and add all component like label, textfield etc are set in the panel and this panel add in frame then all component set in their perticular location and text are not broken.
Or also set fix panel size so that help to you to set same size of your application in different screen.

  • use setSize(int x, int y) to set frame size and it is not dynamically. So this is solve your problem. – Angel Nov 01 '12 at 05:31
