Spacing between components change due to screen resolution

Hello All,
I am using GridBagLayout for desiging a screen for my application. I had defined the spacing between each component and had run the application in my system. It is working fine. But if the same code is run from another system with a different screen resolution, the spacing between components get altered. Can you plz give a solution to make the spaicing between components fixed despite the screen resolution.
Thanks in advance.

how do you mean this? did you define the insets of the constraints for some components? normally they don't belong to the screen resolution, because the frame has a size that is calculated with the sizes of all it's children. or do you have the frame maximized?

Change of boot screen resolution after projector connecting

Hi Guys,
My boot screen's resolution was changed to 800 x 600 when connected to a projector and the screen resolution was returned to the previous set resolution at 1680 x 1050.
However, the resolution of my dock icon was messed up (this can be configured manuall) BUT my boot screen (with the grey apple before getting to the login page) is now at 800 x 600
Can anyone advise how I can set it back to 1680 x 1050 and how to prevent this from happening the next time I plug my MacBook Pro into the projector again?
Thousand thanks for your help.
Cheers!

Fixed: reconnected the external display and disconnected it properly.

Fit the GUI and its components according to the screen resolution

hi frns,
i have developed a GUI by using BorderLayout and GUI contains around 7 components.I am primarily working on 1024*768 resolution..THe main problem is when i using 800*600..My interface will run out of shape..How to avoid this. ......reply urgently.
thanku.

Have you tried this?
Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
And then you can do a setSize method to resize your screen based on what you found out about the screenSize.
As long as your components are contained in some sort of layout manager, they should resize accordingly as the screen is resize like this also... You might need to do a yourscreen.pack() also....

Remove All Spacing Between Components

I simply have two Labels in a VBox and would like to remove
all gaps and padding between them. I've tried specifying
verticalGap="0" on the VBox and setting the Label paddings to 0 and
bottom="0". Since the labels will be dynamic and have different
styles I'm trying to keep them as separate components.
Is there another style property I'm missing?
<mx:VBox>
<mx:Label text="United Center" styleName="lgLabel" />
<mx:Label text="Chicago Bulls" styleName="smLabel" />
</mx:VBox>
Thanks.

When you set VBox.verticalGap="0" it puts the two labels as
close together as it can.
If you still need them to be closer, then you can use
negative numbers in either of the properties, verticalGap or
padding.
e.g: verticalGap="-5" or paddingBottom="-5"
Hope that helps.

Citrix receiver on MBP and thunderbolt display get stalled due to screen resolution

Running citrix apps on MBP together with Thunderbolt display. Citrix app will launch but will not operate as is gets resolution error message. Also after upgrading to Mavericks launching the Citrix app only work 1 out of 3 time (not sure at all of the reason it is not always not working).

Wire Aligment with Different Screen Resolutions

I've noticed that block diagram wire positions/alignments can change, sometimes significantly, in moving to monitors with different resolutions. There's a ton of information about maintaining proportions on the front panel as resolution changes, but I can't find how to mitigate the issue with wires on the block diagram. Does anybody know how best to handle this?
Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've never noticed the block diagram change due to screen resolutions. I have seen issues like this when changing system fonts. For instance, going from XP to Win7 meant going to Aero font, which is a bigger font than whatever XP used for its default system font.

Screen resolution does not change back after using a projector

Hi!
My office uses several different models of macbooks, but there is a small problem with all the Airs. When I have been using them with a projector I have to change back the screen resolution manually (go to the system settings and change resolution). On the macbook pros, however, the desktop restores themselves as soon as the projector is disconnected. It seems to me that this should be the standard behaviour of all macs, does anyone know why it is not working on the Airs?
Best regards
Erik

Hi Erik,
I had this problem on a MacBook and resolved it by recreating some plist files.
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.xxxxxxxxxxxx.plist
~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.preference.displays.xxxxxxxxx.plist
The xxxx's are your machine's EthernetID (MAC Address). I wouldn't delete, rather just move them to your Desktop and restart the computer. See if that resolves it.

Quicktime Changes Screen resolution

1. I offloaded Quicktime and re-installed from download. When I click on the icon on the desktop, it changes the resolution of all the images on the desktop, as well as in Quicktime itself when it launches.
2. Initially, some of our video files were playing fine, but others had a checkerboard-like effect across the screen.
Any suggestions?

I'm experiencing the same problem. I changed my iMacs screen resolution to 1024x768 and Quicktime X does:
– not show the "stop recording" button
– only allow me to stop the recording, if I change the resolution back to the native 1680x1050 pixels. But then it records only the part which was in native screen resolution, so actually I can record my mouse pressing the "stop record button"...
The screen recording feature is surely a killer, but where are the "settings"? Maybe I restart and install 10.6.1...

Automatic Screen Resolution Changes?

I have a Retina MBP 15". When I use Mail or Safari, I like the setting set to "Best (Retina)", but when I use Photoshop, FCP or other media based apps, I like to change it my screen resolution to Scaled: "More Space".
Is there a way (in Automator or something else) to have the MBP trigger screen resoultion changes for certain apps? and then return it to the default upon quitting that application?
Thanks

Hello anitagold:
Welcome to HP's forum. Thank you for visiting us how ever you are on the wrong forum. You own a business Touchsmart witch has a total different operating system then home user's does.

Panel collection with auto height for different screen resolution

Hi.
I created a page using panel collection by default height for 1024 * 768 screen resolution and works fine. When I change the screen resolution to 1152 * 864 then my page layout changes as I can see lot more space at bottom due to fixed height define for panel collection.
Here my question is how to make height as dynamic for panel collection which can changed based on screen resolution. Usually percentage for height attribute resolve the issue but JDev 11.1.1.4.0 doesn't support percentage its allows only pixel or em.
Please let me know to resolve this issue.
Thanks

If you want a table to occupy 80% of the height of the screen you should be able to do this with assigining % to the various panelStretch facets - like this:
    <af:form id="f1">
      <af:panelStretchLayout id="psl1" topHeight="10%" bottomHeight="10%">
        <f:facet name="bottom">
          <af:spacer width="10" height="1" id="s2"/>
        </f:facet>
        <f:facet name="center">
          <af:panelCollection id="pc1">
            <f:facet name="menus"/>
            <f:facet name="toolbar"/>
            <f:facet name="statusbar"/>
            <af:table var="row" rowBandingInterval="0" id="t1">
              <af:column sortable="false" headerText="col4" id="c1">
                <af:outputText value="#{row.col4}" id="ot1"/>
              </af:column>
              <af:column sortable="false" headerText="col5" id="c2">
                <af:outputText value="#{row.col5}" id="ot2"/>
              </af:column>
            </af:table>
          </af:panelCollection>
        </f:facet>
        <f:facet name="start"/>
        <f:facet name="end"/>
        <f:facet name="top">
          <af:spacer width="10" height="1" id="s1"/>
        </f:facet>
      </af:panelStretchLayout>
    </af:form>

DB does not look the same in different screen resolutions

Hi All -
I have built my dashboards using the Windows screen resolution 1024 x 768, and exported the dashboard into powerpoint. With this resolution the dashboard looks normal. I then changed my Windows screen resolution to 1280 x 1024, opened the ppt slideshow and my X-axis labels are being cut off. The labels are written vertically (ex: 06/09/09).
Does anyone know why this could be happening?
Thanks!
Tracy

I am experiencing the exact same thing. The width of the tabs in the layout editor is varied depending on the length of the text. However, at run-time, the width of the tabs is fixed, causing the tabs to be wider than the window and a set of VCR buttons to appear in the upper right corner of the canvas. Personally, I think this is a Forms bug. Why would they intentionally let us set the width to variable at design-time only to force a fixed width at run-time?

Hi and welcome to Discussions,
If the image on your screen appears too large, the zoom option might been turned on in System Preferences.
To turn off zoom:
1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Universal Access.
2. Click Seeing.
3. Click the Off button under Zoom.

Screen resolution on BT Yahoo browser

My 'Windows Internet Explorer provided by Yahoo' (i.e. BT) browser has suddenly started displaying in a larger font as if the screen resolution has changed (images are also affected). No other application on my laptop is affected. I've tried changing the laptop screen resolution to correct this, however not only does it not fix the browser, it also upsets all the other apps on the laptop - so I don't think the screen resolution is really the problem. I have now returned it to the recommended native resolution and everything looks fine again, except for the browser! Changing the font size via the browser options also makes no difference. Has anyone else experienced this phenomenon?!!
Solved!

Hi
not sure if you have tried this but might be the problem have you checked the zoom level in the right hand corner of the window just above the system tray icons

Default screen resolution

Is there a way to change the default screen resolution for the Home Media DVR? I have to change it from 720p to 1080i every time I turn on the set. I tried getting help on the phone, but Verizon has the most annoying phone tree of all time.

It's based on the HDMI settings from your TV and resets every time you turn off the STB. I personally haven't found a way to override it.
