Resizing JFrame

Hi,

I have a JFrame which user can resize by clicking on the arrow on the corner. In that Frame I have added a button in the center using

buttonbox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut((frame.getWidth()/2)-40));

when the user clicks on maximize or restore I am doing the same as above, but when the user resizes the frame by dragging the arrow, how do I make sure that the button is still in the center of the Frame?

Please Help!

Doesn't work that way,

I am confused, as how should I go about it,

it works fine when user clicks on max n min button but when resizes by dragging, it does not work

Can you please help!

works fine for me.

post a sample program showing it now working (just a frame with the layout set, and the button)

ok

This is what I have done:

int p=frame.getwidth();
buttonBox.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut((p/2)-40);
buttonBox.add(closeButton);
buttonPanel.add(buttonBox);
frame.getContentPane().add(buttonPanel,new GridBagConstraints());

I don't know where did I mess up, but the frame is not launching at all

Please Help!

Where are you calling frame.setVisible(true)?

from the same methind itself, I am calling setVisible(true);

I can't compile/run the code, so I can't see what you're doing
