setMinSizeRelatively

public static void setMinSizeRelatively(javax.swing.JComponent comp,
                                        double xFactor,
                                        double yFactor)

Sets the minimum size of the specified component relatively to its preferred size.

To get textField1 having a minimum width half of its preferred width:
GUIUtils.setMinSizeRelatively(textField1, 0.5, 1.0)

Parameters:

comp - the component whose minimum size should be set relatively to its preferred size

xFactor - the factor to apply to the width

yFactor - the factor to apply to the height

public static void setMaxSizeRelatively(javax.swing.JComponent comp,
                                        double xFactor,
                                        double yFactor)
