Slider & Label Layout
Hello,
I'm still pretty new to java and a bit rusty from the classes I took last year. So basically I'm trying to create a Panel with a bunch of Sliders side by side and labels which indicate their values immediately below each respective Slider.
I have successfully done this with a subpanel with BorderLayouts inside a main panel with a grid layout. All of this is contained in its own class "SliderPanel". OK, great so far.
Then I want to build a larger Panel that includes a SliderPanel and many other panels. If I try to do:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
class generator
{
publicstaticvoid main(String[] args)
{
SliderPanel sPanel =new SliderPanel();
JPanel panelMain =new JPanel();
panelMain.add(sPanel);
}
}
The sPanel becomes the main panel dominating the entire window and the line "panelMain.add(sPanel)" throws an exception "adding a window to a container".
So, my question is, how do I go about placing a SliderPanel inside my main window, treating it as a sub-object, like a button or a label would be. i.e. How do I prevent SliderPanel from completely taking over the entire window?
Thanks in advance!
