I got an assignment that i have to make a programm in Java that takes an Image.Creates 3 Buttons named(Align left,right and center).2 textfields Width and Height that i can input numbers there and a button resize.The 4 buttons(align left,right,center and resize) have to change the image place to left right or center and resize the image as the numbers were given respectively
I have written the code just for going left but i cant figure what to do...I also have no idea what to do on resizing...Can someone help me?

}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Destructor f = new Destructor("Image App");
f.setSize(600, 600);
f.setVisible(true);
}
}
EDIT: I made a program that changes the Logo of the site with the help of trashgod
Also i tried to change it a bit by changing the URL image loading with my image by doing
imageLabel = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("PewPew.jpg"));
and it works too.The Resize is gonna be done kinda the same way that its aligned left though i should "link" the text field numbers right?I need to also make a setPreferedSize and somehow get the width and height of textfields?

Edit 2: I made a programm that comes closer to what i need to do.I try to add the menu too like the original programm MenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
this.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
JMenu fileMenu = new JMenu("Options");
menuBar.add(fileMenu);
JMenuItem redMenuItem = new JMenuItem("Reset");
fileMenu.add(redMenuItem);
and i get an error that does not recognize this.setJMenuBar.Also i tried many ways and i cant make the 3 buttons go north and the resize and textfields go south...What i am doing wrong?Code:

Two approaches are common:
Given a suitable layout manager, use one of the constants
JLabel.LEFT
,JLabel.CENTER
orJLabel.RIGHT
in your call tosetHorizontalAlignment()
; follow this withvalidate()
andrepaint()
, if required.Override
paintComponent()
and usedrawImage()
to render theImage
at the desired coordinates. Scaling is automatic. Left alignment is easy:Center, right and exception handling are left as an exercise.
Addendum: The sscce below illustrates the first approach for a single alignment; try adding the other two buttons using the existing button as a guide.
