Center JDialog over parent

2019-01-07 21:32发布

问题:

I have a Java swing application with a button that produces a popup window when a certain action is performed. I'd like to align the center point of the popup window with the center point of the parent window when it is rendered. How can I calculate the x,y coordinates to plug into setLocation() for the popup window?

Just to clarify. I do not want the behavior of setLocationRelativeTo() because that sets the top-left pixel of the popup over the center pixel of the parent frame. I want to set the center pixel of the popup over the center pixel of the parent frame.

回答1:

setLocationRelativeTo ..this sets the top left pixel of the popup over the center pixel of the parent. ..

No it does not!

Each of the 3 dialogs popped by this simple example appears to be centered as far as I can see. I can only guess that the code is calling setLocationRelativeTo at the wrong time.

import javax.swing.*;

class CenterTheDialog {

    CenterTheDialog() {
        for (int ii=1; ii<4; ii++) {
            JFrame f = new JFrame("Frame " + ii);
            f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);

            f.setSize(400,300);
            f.setLocationByPlatform(true);
            f.setVisible(true);

            JDialog d = new JDialog(f);
            d.setSize(300,200);
            d.setLocationRelativeTo(f);
            d.setVisible(true);
        }
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(() -> {
            new CenterTheDialog();
        });
    }
}


回答2:

On the JDialog you've created you should call pack() first, then setLocationRelativeTo(parentFrame), and then setVisible(true). With that order the JDialog should appear centered on the parent frame.

If you don't call pack() first, then setting the location relative to the parent doesn't work properly because the JDialog doesn't know what size it is at that point. It appears to take the size as 0 by 0, which results in the "top left pixel of the popup over the center pixel of the parent" positioning mentioned in a comment to one of the other answers.



回答3:

Window#setLocationRelativeTo



回答4:

You can utilize event e to get parent window. Use getWindowAncestor and e.getSource().

dialog.setLocationRelativeTo(SwingUtilities.getWindowAncestor((Component) e.getSource()))



回答5:

You could try passing the coordinates of the parent window and its size to the new window and adding the coordinates + 1/2 parent frame size in each axis - 1/2 of the popups x/y to center upon center.

Or..If you extend you could use setLocationRelativeTo(owner)

Hope this helps
