Generate GUI into | This option specifies what kind of output the GUI Designer generates for the visual forms you create.
The available settings are:
|
Automatically copy form runtime classes to the output directory | If this option is checked, the classes from the package com.intellij.uiDesigner.core package are copied to the configured output directory, when the project is compiled. These classes are used when working with the GridLayoutManager(IntelliJ), or when there are components with mnemonics, specified by the & character. |
Default Layout Manager | Set the default layout manager for new components placed into forms. The selection here appears as the setting for the Layout Manager property whenever a new component is placed on a form.
|
Default accessibility for UI-bound fields | Use this option, if you want to change the default accessibility for UI-bound fields from private to something else, like public . |
Resize column and row headers with mouse | This checkbox enables/disables resizing in captions. If this checkbox is selected, IntelliJ IDEA allows you to resize column and rows using mouse. When pointing to a column or a row, the mouse pointer changes its shape to the double arrow. |
