I know people are probably gonna tell me to use layouts instead of this but for the project im doing I would really like to able to set the positioning myself.
The problem im having is that I have all the positioning and sizing correct in the panels but when I run the code it simply doesnt have either the dimensions or the positioning I set and I dont understand why.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
class MyFrame extends JFrame {
MyFrame() {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
JPanel combatPanel = new JPanel();
combatPanel.setLayout(null);
combatPanel.setBounds(0,0,1380,805);
combatPanel.setBackground(Color.darkGray);
JPanel combatImage = new JPanel();
combatImage.setLayout(null);
combatImage.setBounds(0,0,1380,575);
combatImage.setBackground(Color.black);
JPanel combatActions = new JPanel();
combatActions.setLayout(null);
combatActions.setBounds(0,575,480,230);
combatActions.setBackground(Color.gray);
JPanel combatActionInfo = new JPanel();
combatActionInfo.setLayout(null);
combatActionInfo.setBounds(480,575,900,115);
combatActionInfo.setBackground(Color.lightGray);
JPanel combatPlayerInfo = new JPanel();
combatPlayerInfo.setLayout(null);
combatPlayerInfo.setBounds(480,690,900,115);
combatPlayerInfo.setBackground(Color.red);
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon("image.png");
this.setTitle("F&H 342"); // sets title of frame
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); // exit out of application
this.setResizable(false); // prevent frame from being resized
this.setSize(1380, 805); // sets the x-dimension, and y-dimension of frame
this.setVisible(true); // make frame visible
this.getContentPane().setBackground(Color.yellow);
this.setIconImage(icon.getImage());
this.setLayout(null);
combatPanel.add(combatImage);
combatPanel.add(combatActions);
combatPanel.add(combatActionInfo);
combatPanel.add(combatPlayerInfo);
this.add(combatPanel);
});
}
}
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MyFrame myFrame = new MyFrame();
}
}
what i was trying to do
Tried to make dimensions like in the image.
