JScrollPane

[Thorsten Kiefer]

Hi,
I need scroll pane which does not resize its child.
I.e. the child must always keep its preferred size.
If the scroll pane it bigger than the child, the child should
be aligned to the scroll pane's center.

Is something like that available ?

Best wishes
Thorsten

Just add additional container inside JScrollPane:

public class GUI {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame=new JFrame();
frame.setSize(500, 400);
JButton button=new JButton("Click me");
button.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200, 40));
JPanel panel=new JPanel();
panel.add(button);
JScrollPane scrollableArea = new JScrollPane(panel);
frame.add(scrollableArea);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}

You could use setPreferredSize setMinimumSize setMaximumSize on the
child and see if it honours your request.
