I am trying to fix a JFrame where there will be a background image and on the image JButtons which will do some commands. I try to do it without layout because i want to put small buttons in some specific locations on the JFrame but every time i do it, the background image comes to the front or the JFrame has size equal to the JFrame size. With the following code, the JButton has the same size to JFrame. I have tried to change the size and location of the JButton but nothing. Can you help me please?
here is the code
public final class Test extends JComponent
{
private Image background;
private JFrame frame;
private Dimension dimension;
public Test()
{
dimension = new Dimension(15, 15);
frame = new JFrame("Iphone");
frame.pack();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.getContentPane().add(this);
frame.setBounds(641, 0, 344, 655);
frame.setVisible(true);
test = displayButton("tigka");
frame.getContentPane().add(test);
}
public void update(Graphics g)
{
paint(g);
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
super.paintComponents(g);
g.drawImage(background, 0, 25, null); // draw background
// label();
test = displayButton("test");
}
public JButton displayButton(String name)
{
JButton button = new JButton(name);
button.setSize(100, 100);
button.setPreferredSize(dimension);
return button;
}
You need to change the
content pane
to get a background for yourFrame
.Output:
You should swap those two lines:
Thus it should be this order:
Additionally, note that the content pane's default layout is BorderLayout. Thus you'd set the layout of your content pane to null explicitly.
Have you tried using a JLabel with HTML in the label? Something like this:
then on top of your label you can add your button?
