JFrame, disabling the minimize and maximize buttons

[leggolas]

hi guys,

a student asks if is it possible to create java windows (no pun
intended) without the minimize and maximize buttons. so in effect,
creating a window with just the "X" button. creating such windows is
easily done in VB. i cant remember what property i have to set in VB
but im sure its possible. im not sure if its also possible for java.

help please!

Hi,

You may want to use a JDialog instead of the JFrame.
(JDialog displays only the "close" button).

Yes, extend the window from JPanel.

For a JFrame you can disable the maximize botton with frame.setResizable(false)

thanks! i'll head on over the java docs and tinker with the JDialog.

peace!
