I hava a JPanel.
I have a JButton in the JPanel. While this JButton is pressed, a lot of other components apear on the JPanel. The JButton can be pressed several times. So, there are lots of components on the JPanel.
So, JPanel should be scrolled. I put the JPanel inside a JScrollPanell, but it didn't work.
Can anybody help me please?
Hmm, well here is a tutorial on ScrollPanes. You might find some useful info here.

Ive never really messed with scrolling JPanels, but after consulting google the general consensus is that there are a couple of ways to do it. This link on Stack Overflow has suggestions from using a viewport to setting your JPanel preferred size to larger than your frame preferred size and adding the JPanel to a ScrollPane.

Sorry I couldn't help you more, but hopefully these people have had similar problems with working solutions that you can learn from.
thanX Dark,
I had seen the first link you introduced and it didn't work.
I don't want to scrollize(my word) the JPanel, I don't want to produce something, I just want a solution to let me continue my work, because I have a lot to do and not much time.
I tried all the relevant methods of JscrollPane, but none of them worked, I don't know whether there's no capability in Java for this problem, or I'm doing something wrong.

And you haven't provided us with enough infomation to help. We also dont' have time to spend guessing what you might be doing.Quote:

The basic code for creating a scroll pane is:
If you dynamically add components then the basic code is:Code:JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.add(...);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane( panel );
frame.add( scrollPane );
If you need more help then post your Short, Self Contained, Correct Example.Code:panel.add( anotherComponent );
panel.revalidate();
panel.repaint();
Dear friend,
to be complete, the hierarchy of my containers is as follows: JTabbedPane->JScrollPane->JPanel
I have a JButton inside the JPanel.
Each time the JButton is pressed, a line of components is dynamically generated: JLabel, JTextField, JLabel, JTextField, JButton
So, with multiple pressing the button, lots of these lines are generated vertically.
The problem is that when the components exceed the current view of the JPanel, the scrollbars don't work, even when the scrollbar policy is set to ALWAYS.
I hope that I was clear, complete and concise
It doesn't change my answer. Try my suggestions and post your SSCCE if it still doesn't work.Quote:
