Modifying size of JFrame with Netbeans visual editor

What property I am modifying when when dragging or double click the border of a JFrame, or JDialog or similar, using the visual editor that comes bundle within every Netbeans distribution?

I thing that the IDE is somehow modifying the size attribute inherited from JComponent Class. But I see the code generated by the IDE and there is no call to setSize... so that let me really wondering if somebody know what is behind.

Firstly, when using any JFrame or JDialog you should use pack whereever possible.

Having said that, if you click the "Code" of the "Properties" window for the form, you will see two properties: "Form Size Policy" and "Designer Size".
