java - What is the point of overriding the getInsets() method? -
i'm looking @ documentation javax.swing.jcomponent
, , method stuck out me because trying create subclass of type. there point in overriding getinsets()
? purpose of method when have getpreferredsize()
?
getinsets
defines space can taken content, borders, is, generally, added preferredsize
, offsets position (translates) of graphics
context, ensure actual content painted instead insets
.
personally, unless intend prevent modifying state of components borders or thinking providing margins of sort, i'd leave alone (and not override it)
