Using setBounds (x.y,width,height) constructor

[hitmen]

Dear all,

I am using JWindow setBounds constructor. Now how am supposed to know the arguments to pass into the constructor. How do I know what is the pixel of the screen and so on?:confused:

setBounds is a method, not a constructor.

java.awt.Toolkit#getScreenSize / getScreenResolution

I know it is a method. I am asking how am I supposed to know the pixel values to pass into the setbound(x,y,width,height) constructor?

Can't tell from the way you ask that, but maybe you need to go through this:

edit And if you KNOW it's a method, why do you keep on misusing the word CONSTRUCTOR?
