e825. Distributing Space When a JSplitPane Container Is ResizedThe weight of a split pane controls the behavior of the divider when the split pane is resized. If the weight is 0, all extra space is given to the right or bottom component. If the weight is 1, all extra space is given to the left or top component. A weight of .3 specifies that the left or top component gets one-third of the extra space. The weight also determines how the children lose space when the size of the split pane is reduced. For example, a weight of 0 means that the left or top component does not lose any space.The weight also controls the starting location of the divider. For example, if the weight is .5, the divider is placed in the center. // Create a left-right split pane JSplitPane pane = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, leftComponent, rightComponent); // Get current weight double weight = pane.getResizeWeight(); // 0.0 by default // Keep the size of the right component constant weight = 1D; pane.setResizeWeight(weight); // Split the space evenly weight = .5D; pane.setResizeWeight(weight);
