Hide/remove maximize button on JFrame.

Hi objects.  I did suspect as much.

Seems like such a simple thing though..  have you stumbled upon any code which will help me?

Hi Javatm, I've just had a play with JInternalFrame and as you said it does remove the minimize button.

But the main window remains open when you click minimize and close... are you suggesting i catch the event and pass it over to the parent?  also i can't seem to find where i get rid of the title bar from the parent frame.  One more thing, i have a LAF and it renders internal frames quite ugly...

I still prefer Object's proposed method at this stage.. as to avoid the above complications.  Just like someone to post some code on how to get that working.

Try this :

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Word extends JWindow {

 public Word()
  {
  super("Word Processor . . .");
 
  JDesktopPane p1 = new JDesktopPane();
  JInternalFrame f1 = new JInternalFrame("",false,true,false,true);

  JTextArea txt1 = new JTextArea();
  txt1.setSize(300,300);

  f1.add(new JScrollPane(txt1));
  f1.show();
  p1.add(f1);
   
  getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
  getContentPane().add( p1, BorderLayout.CENTER);

  setSize(500, 500);
  show();
  }

 public static void main (String args[])
  {
   Word x = new Word();
   x.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
  }
 }

Sorry I remebered that we are JWindow for us to remove the Titlebar
Its like this actually :

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Word extends JWindow {

 public Word()
  {
  JDesktopPane p1 = new JDesktopPane();
  JInternalFrame f1 = new JInternalFrame("Sample . . .",false,true,false,true);

  JTextArea txt1 = new JTextArea();
  txt1.setSize(300,300);

  f1.add(new JScrollPane(txt1));
  f1.show();
  p1.add(f1);
   
  getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
  getContentPane().add( p1, BorderLayout.CENTER);

  setSize(500, 500);
  show();
  }

 public static void main (String args[])
  {
      Word x = new Word();

      x.addWindowListener(
         new WindowAdapter() {
            public void windowClosing( WindowEvent e )
            {
               System.exit( 0 );
            }
         }
       );
    }
 }

If you want to close the entire program just click on the "x" mark on the
Internal Frame w/ this codes :

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class Word extends JWindow {

 public Word()
  {
  JDesktopPane p1 = new JDesktopPane();
  JInternalFrame f1 = new JInternalFrame("Sample . . .",false,true,false,true);

  JTextArea txt1 = new JTextArea();
  txt1.setSize(300,300);

  f1.add(new JScrollPane(txt1));
  f1.show();
  p1.add(f1);

  f1.setDefaultCloseOperation(JInternalFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
   
  getContentPane().setLayout( new BorderLayout() );
  getContentPane().add( p1, BorderLayout.CENTER);

  setSize(500, 500);
  show();
  }

 public static void main (String args[])
  {
      Word x = new Word();
  }
 }
