java swing resize ImageIcon according to jLabel
i am a new programmer here and i have something to ask, i have browse a picture into my GUI (and set the path in text box also)which displays on a Label, but the label dimension is set only 100,100 while the picture is much bigger so when i open/display it into the label it get cropped , is there anyway to make it auto resize to the label size? below is my logic code on browse button and open dialog box please any one tell me where i am wrong..
public class ImagePath extends javax.swing.JFrame {
private JPanel contentPane;
JLabel jLabel1;
String s2;
File targetFile;
BufferedImage targetImg;
public ImagePath() {
initComponents();
}
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
JFileChooser jFileChooser1 = new JFileChooser();
int state = jFileChooser1.showOpenDialog(new JFrame());
jTextField1.setText("");
if (state == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "hii");
File file = jFileChooser1.getSelectedFile();
s2 = file.toString();
jTextField1.setText(s2);
jLabel1 = new JLabel();
jLabel1.setName(s2);
jLabel1.setLocation(50, 50);
jLabel1.setSize(300, 300);
add(jLabel1);
BufferedImage bi1;
try {
bi1 = ImageIO.read(file);
ImageIcon icon1 = new ImageIcon(bi1);
jLabel1.setIcon(icon1);
Image img = icon1.getImage();
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(file.getPath());
Image scaleImage = icon.getImage().getScaledInstance(28, 28, Image.SCALE_DEFAULT);
repaint();
pack();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
} else if (state == JFileChooser.CANCEL_OPTION) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(), "Canceled");
}
}
}
Answer
Unless you really want a nasty head ache, I would suggest taking advantage of the layout management system.
Instead of trying to set the size and location of components, let them decide how they wan to be displayed where possible.
While I personally take advantage of Netbeans form designer, I would encourage you to take the time to learn how to build your UI's by hand, it will give a greater apprication for what the form designers can do, as well ideas you can employee to make advanced UIs - IMHO

I've included WrapLayout by Rob Camick (who lurks about the place) because, to be quite frank, none of the other layout managers gave me the effect I wanted.
I also set the label's text with the path of the image
Take a look at Using layout Managers and A Visual Guide to Layout Managers
Take a look at WrapLayout
Updated with text fields
If you want to associate a text field with the image, then I suggest you add both the label and text field to a JPanel (using something like a BorderLayout) and then add that to your image pane...
public class ImagePane extends JPanel {
public ImagePane() {
setLayout(new SimpleImageBrowser.WrapLayout());
setBackground(Color.BLACK);
}
public void addImage(File file) throws IOException {
BufferedImage bi1 = ImageIO.read(file);
ImageIcon icon1 = new ImageIcon(bi1);
JPanel imgPane = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
imgPane.setOpaque(false);
JLabel label = new JLabel(icon1);
imgPane.add(label);
JTextField field = new JTextField(file.getPath(), 20);
field.setEditable(false);
imgPane.add(field, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
add(imgPane);
revalidate();
}
@Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return getComponentCount() == 0 ? new Dimension(200, 200) : super.getPreferredSize();
}
}
And the updated ActionListener...
add.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
int state = fcImage.showOpenDialog(SimpleImageBrowser.ImageBrowserPane.this);
switch (state) {
case JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION:
File file = fcImage.getSelectedFile();
try {
imagePane.addImage(file);
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
});
