Use more buttons, say at least four in a 2'2 array, to better represent

Whoops! Hadn't seen you already put that in. Don't know why I didn't
realise that was a menu item. Sorry.

For people as blind as me: on the top-left, "Change Buttons" isn't a
title, but a clickable menu item.

df.


I've had a look a the code you linked.

The "File" menu doesn't appear on my screen.


The source code is for the application and the File menu just closes the
JFrame. I took that out for the applet as it was not useful.

Why do you limit weightx and weighty to the range [0, 1]? I haven't
found it uncommon to use values greater than 1 for these fields (it's
easier to devise proportions with integers than with fractions).


That's a really good question and I don't have an answer other than to
say for some reason I thought that was a limit. It isn't and I will
change it.

UI-ways, if I input 2 as weightx and click "Update", nothing happens --
the dialog doesn't close and I am not told why.


That used to work, I'll fix that too.
