Hey guys, I am new to Java and recently developed a small GUI-based project in Windows using Netbeans IDE. So I try build the project and retrieve the .jar file and it runs well on my Windows computer. Then I copy the .jar file to a Ubuntu Linux computer and runs it there, the problem is some of the buttons/interface is "hidden" or out of sight, even if I drag the window size for it to be bigger these interface stay.."truncated". Any ideas guys?

Jump to PostWhat layout manager did you use for your GUI?
Jump to Postsounds like he used a NullLayout or something very similar, with fixed size (in pixels) controls rather than letting the LayoutManager determine the pixel size based on content size.
There won't be a "port" for that, rather it will have to be recreated from scratch.
