I am using NetBeans to create a SWING application which should be able to display a graph. In a demo app I was able to display the generated JUNG graph on a JFrame with the following code:
UndirectedGraph t = GraphML.CreateGraph("treeAttribute.graphml");
VisualizationViewer<Node, Edge> vv = new VisualizationViewer<Node, Edge>((new FRLayout<Node, Edge>(t)));
vv.getRenderContext().setVertexFillPaintTransformer(new VertexPainter());
vv.getRenderContext().setVertexLabelTransformer(new ToStringLabeller<Node>());
vv.getRenderContext().setEdgeLabelTransformer(new ToStringLabeller<Edge>());
final JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.getContentPane().add(vv);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
Now I want to make use of the Palette and the design mode so I have created a JFrame and I have inserted a JPanel into it. I want my graph to be displayed inside the JPanel so I have inserted the code for the graph into the initComponents() method. The code looks like the following:
public class Main extends javax.swing.JFrame {
public Main() throws ParserConfigurationException, SAXException, IOException {
initComponents();
}
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
// <editor-fold defaultstate="collapsed" desc="Generated Code">
private void initComponents() {
jPanel1 = new javax.swing.JPanel();
jLabel1 = new javax.swing.JLabel();
setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
javax.swing.GroupLayout jPanel1Layout = new javax.swing.GroupLayout(jPanel1);
jPanel1.setLayout(jPanel1Layout);
jPanel1Layout.setHorizontalGroup(
jPanel1Layout.createParallelGroup(javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
.addGap(0, 634, Short.MAX_VALUE)
);
jPanel1Layout.setVerticalGroup(
jPanel1Layout.createParallelGroup(javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)
.addGap(0, 298, Short.MAX_VALUE)
);
jLabel1.setText("Graph A");
javax.swing.GroupLayout layout = new javax.swing.GroupLayout(getContentPane());
getContentPane().setLayout(layout);
layout.setHorizontalGroup(
layout.createParallelGroup(javax.swing.GroupLayout.Alignment.LEADING)

The program runs as normal but nothing gets displayed into the JPanel. I am not receiving any errors or warnings and the graph is there, cuz it prints some information for its vertices and edges. Any thoughts?
