How to set JFrame to appear centered regardless of monitor resolution

0 votes
While working with Java, I find it hard to position my main window in the center of the screen when I start the application.

It doesn't have to be vertically centered, horizontal alignment to be the most important goal for me. But vertical alignment is also welcome.

Hello kartik,

You can  always did it in this way:

Dimension dim = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
this.setLocation(dim.width/2-this.getSize().width/2, dim.height/2-this.getSize().height/2);

where this is the JFrame involved.

Thank You!!
