Centering application on the screen

Centering an application (window, frame or dialog) can be done with the following codes:


// Get the size of the screen

Dimension dim = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();

    

// Determine the new location of the window

int w = window.getSize().width;

int h = window.getSize().height;

int x = (dim.width-w)/2;

int y = (dim.height-h)/2;

    

// Move the window

window.setLocation(x, y);
