JPanel resize with mouse problem

Hello,

I have a question about how to resize the JPanel with mouse.

There are mainPanel, jPanel1 and jPanel2. The Layout of mainPanel is
BorderLayout. jPanel1 is added to the west while jPanel2 is added to
the center.
What I am going to implement is to move the mouse over the border of
jPanel1, then it shall change to Cursor.E_RESIZE_CURSOR. And with the
move of the mouse, jPanel1 and jPanel2 shall be resized.

Anyone has ideas about this? I have googled again and again and try it
myself. But I still cannot make it.

Can anyone provide some help for me. Thank you for the help.

I don't know how to do that but why don't you just use
a JFrame instead. It will do exactly what you want and
handle the cursor and everything.

Put it in an JSplitPane.

As for your latter question 'without mouse', try
JSplitPane + JButton(s) - "Bigger"/"Smaller".

But I say that with little more understanding of
your questions than as expressed by Knute.

I got an email from the OP stating..
"no. I am asked to use the just the JPanel, not JSplitPane."

Now, in case you are confused. Do *not* send me email.
I reposted your comment here on the assumption that you
simply clicked the wrong button when replying.

Please take more care in future which buttons you click,
as further emails from you to me will be deleted without
being read.

Sorry. Yes I clicked the wrong button. I am very sorry for that!
I think the Split Panes will work now.

Thank you very much

It's cool. ( I am saying that, guessing that means
you intend to take a little more care with the buttons.

Excellent. Glad you got a workable solution, &
since it is more like what the end-user would expect,
I am thinking they will be grateful as well. :-)
