Creating a JSplitPane with 3 Panels
I would like to create a window with 3 jPanels, split by splitPane-s. The left and right should be changed by the user, and the one in the middle should fill the remaining space.
I created it, but if I move the first splitPane, then the second will move. And I'm not sure if I'm using the best method for what I want.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JSplitPane;
public class MyWindow extends JFrame {
public MyWindow() {
this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
JPanel leftPanel = new JPanel();
JPanel centerPanel = new JPanel();
JPanel centerPanel2 = new JPanel();
JPanel rightPanel = new JPanel();
JSplitPane sp = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, leftPanel, centerPanel);
JSplitPane sp2 = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, centerPanel2, rightPanel);
centerPanel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
this.add(sp, BorderLayout.CENTER);
centerPanel.add(sp2, BorderLayout.CENTER);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.setSize(500, 500);
this.setVisible(true);
}
}

What you are doing looks rather strange to me, adding centerPanel
to the panel with a section and then adding the split panel to centerPane
. Not sure, but I think the latter denies the former.
All you have to do is add the first split panel to the second split panel.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Color;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JSplitPane;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class MyWindow extends JFrame {
public MyWindow() {
this.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
JPanel leftPanel = new JPanel();
leftPanel.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
JPanel centerPanel = new JPanel();
centerPanel.setBackground(Color.CYAN);
JPanel rightPanel = new JPanel();
rightPanel.setBackground(Color.GREEN);
JSplitPane sp = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, leftPanel, centerPanel);
JSplitPane sp2 = new JSplitPane(JSplitPane.HORIZONTAL_SPLIT, sp, rightPanel);
this.add(sp2, BorderLayout.CENTER);
this.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
this.setSize(500, 500);
this.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
new MyWindow();
}
});
}
}
