Method Detail

getComponentScaler

ComponentScaler getComponentScaler(java.lang.Class<? extends java.awt.Component> componentClass)

Returns a helper class that can be used to scale a component.

Parameters:

componentClass - Class to find a scaler for.

Returns:

Class used to scale that type of component - Always non-null!

getBorderScaler

BorderScaler getBorderScaler(java.lang.Class<? extends javax.swing.border.Border> borderClass)

Returns a helper class that can be used to scale a border.

Parameters:

borderClass - Class to find a scaler for.

Returns:

Class used to scale that type of border - Always non-null!

getScalableLayout

AbstractScalableLayout getScalableLayout(ScalableLayoutRegistry registry,
                                         java.awt.Container container)

Returns a scalable replacement for the original layout manager.

Parameters:

registry - Registry to use.

container - Container with the original layout.

Returns:

Scalable layout manager - Always non-null!

isContainer

boolean isContainer(java.awt.Component component)

Checks if a given component should be treated as container. This method will be used when setting scalable layout managers recursive.

Parameters:

component - Component to check.

Returns:

If it's a container (means no controls like "JTextField", "JButton"...) true else false.
