making a jtable bigger to fit all data

I currently have a JTable inside a JscrollPane inside a JPanel. No matter what I set the size of either of those 3 elements, the table always shows up as the same size. The JPanel is in BorderLayout and I am packing the frame. the reason I want to do this is because some of the data in my columns doesn't fit without having to make other columns way too small.

You can change the JScroller preferred size because a table is often put inside of a scroller.

scrollerPhone.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600, 400));

  • override table.getPreferredScrollableViewportSize(new Dimension(int, int));

  • change JPanels default LayoutManager FlowLayout (implemented in API) to BorderLayout or GridLayout
