I don't know how to put a JScrollPane in the third panel

I tried
JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane();
getContentPane.add(scroll) but it doesn't work

[NormR1]

it doesn't work

Please describe or show the problem.

[JamesCherrill]

I haven't seen an example of how JScrollPane works when it has no contents - maybe that's your problem? Try it with something in it, even a humble JLabel with a short text should be enough.

JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(new JLabel("Hello"));
add(scroll);

ps the getContentPane() has been redundant since about Java 1.5

[pmark019]

the problem is, there is no scroll bar in panel3. The third panel contains JTextFields and JLabels, and I want to put more JTextFields but it won't fit anymore, so I want to make a JScrollPane so that I can still add more JTextField and all I have to do is scroll it down.

[NormR1]

have you done a Search here for JScrollPane to see some examples of how it is used?
Or read the API doc? Especially about the constructors.
Or looked at James's post for an example.

[pmark019]

Yes I did search for examples. My program builds but there is no scroll bar at the side even though only half of the JTextFields cannot be seen anymore.

I used this code but it won't work.

JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(panel3);
frame.add(scroll);

[NormR1]

it won't work

Please explain. It looks like what I use and have work.
There must be something else in your code that is the problem.

Try using setPreferreedSize vs setSize for panel3

[masijade]

Oh God, Why?, Why? Why?

panel3.setLayout(null);

IMHO this is the worst thing that you can do. Especially when you are only using standard labels and text fields. In some rare corner cases it may be advantageous, but for this? No!

[pmark019]

If I dont use

panel3.setLayout(null)

the setBounds doesn't work.

[masijade]

Of course it doesn't. You would have to actually use some layout.

[pmark019]

I'm giving up already. I've read an something that there is an incompatibility with JSplitPane and JScrollPane.

[NormR1]

You must not have tried all the suggestions. Here is what I have with your code.
Have you set the preferred size for the the panel in the scrollpane?

[pmark019]

how did you make this? I already tried setting the preferred size but it still won't work on me. Can you please give me the code?

[NormR1]

Did you follow all the suggestions made?
Could you post your code so we can see what the problem is.
