I have been searching for a solution to be able to increase the height of a row in a JTable. I have been using the setRowHeight(int int) method which compiles and runs OK, but no row[s] have been increased. When I use the getRowHeight(int) method of the row I set the height to, it does print out the size I increased the row to, so I'm not sure what is wrong. The code below is a rough illustration how I am trying to solve it.
My class extends JFrame.
String[] columnNames = {"Column 1", "Column 2", "Column 1 3"};
JTable table = new JTable(new DefaultTableModel(columnNames, people.size()));
DefaultTableModel model = (DefaultTableModel) table.getModel();
int count =1;
for(Person p: people)
{
model.insertRow(count,(new Object[]{count, p.getName(), p.getAge()+"",
p.getNationality}));
count++;
}
table.setRowHeight(1, 15);//Try set height to 15 (I've tried higher)
Can anyone tell me where I am going wrong? I am trying to increase the height of row 1 to 15 pixels?
Not sure what is the intention of leaving the first row at index 0 empty. Rows in JTable
run from index 0. It is best if you could post a complete example (ie SSCCE) that demonstrates the issues. Compare to this simple example that works OK:
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class DemoTable {
private static void createAndShowGUI() {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("DemoTable");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel();
model.setColumnIdentifiers(new Object[] {
"Column 1", "Column 2", "Column 3" });
JTable table = new JTable(model);
for (int count = 0; count < 3; count++){
model.insertRow(count, new Object[] { count, "name", "age"});
}
table.setRowHeight(1, 30);
frame.add(new JScrollPane(table));
frame.setLocationByPlatform(true);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String args[]) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
You can use:
table.setRowHeight(int par1);
or if you wanted to set the row height for a specific row, use:
table.setRowHeight(int par1, int par2);
You can also add a tableModelListener?
model.addTableModelListener(new TableModelListener() {
@Override public void tableChanged(final TableModelEvent e) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
@Override public void run() {
table.setRowHeight(e.getFirstRow(), 15); //replace 15 with your own height
}
});
}
});
Right click on the JTable in JFrame and click Properties.
Scroll down and set the rowHeight value.
