I am making a small app, but i want to set an image as background at the whole window. I tried to make this like below but nothing happen. The image is in the folder where the class is so as a path I put only the name...Can you help me please? what can I do?
Container c = getContentPane();
setContentPane(c);
setContentPane(new JLabel(new ImageIcon("Chrysanthemum.jpg")));
One possibility is to add a BorderLayout
to the JFrame, which should fill the JFrame
with the JLabel
, then set the background, adding the JLabel
to the frame and then add components to it, like this:
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
public class Foo extends JFrame {
public Foo() {
setLayout(new BorderLayout());
JLabel background = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("Untitled.png"));
add(background);
background.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
background.add(new JButton("foo"));
setSize(500, 500);
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
Foo foo = new Foo();
}
}
The above works for me, with the JButton
at the top center of the 500 by 500 JFrame
with the specified background.
What I would do is create a JPanel
with a background image, and add it to the JFrame
. I already have a BackgroundPanel
class right in one of my projects, and this is the setup I have for it.
public class MyFrame extends JFrame {
private BackgroundPanel bgPanel;
public MyFrame() {
bgPanel = new BackgroundPanel("Chrysanthemum.jpg");
setTitle("MyFrame");
setResizable(false);
setContentPane(bgPanel);
pack();
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
new MyFrame();
}
}
// -- BackgroundPanel class
public class BackgroundPanel extends JPanel {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private Image bg;
public BackgroundPanel(String path) {
this(Images.load(path).getImage());
}
public BackgroundPanel(Image img) {
this.bg = img;
setPreferredSize(new Dimension(bg.getWidth(null), bg.getHeight(null)));
}
@Override
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
if (bg != null) g.drawImage(bg, 0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight(), null);
}
}
