- JFrameCH Looking to make a simple java app? Everyone starts by creating a JFrame. The issue, however, is that these look incredibly dated and ugly without a lot of work. JFrameCH makes things a lot simpler in a few ways. First, just by adding the letters "CH" to the instantiation of a JFrame, you can create a much nicer looking frame very quickly.
Comparison of standard JFrame vs JFrameCH:
It's very simple to use. Just import the Caleb Hoff library and instantiate a JFrame using JFrameCH(). This is the code for the example seen above.
How to use:
Final Notes:
- Due to how JFrameCH works, it is not recommended that you use the JFrame.setLayout() function. Instead, to control the layout it is recommended that you create a panel inside a JFrameCH and set its layout. This will prevent graphical issues from occuring with the title bar and window wrapper.
- Support for title bar icons is on the way. Currently an icon can be added, but it will only be shown in the operating system, rather than within the application frame.
