SwingUIScaler4K

Easy UI scaler for 4K screens.

I wrote this package because I have a 4K screen and it was hard to read my school assignments.

What does it do

It takes the normal sizes of a screen lower dan 4K and calculates the dimensions to a 4K screen making it nice and readable.

How to set up

Init Gradle

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        url  "http://dl.bintray.com/bobvdvalk/maven"
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'nl.bobvandervalk:swinguiscaler4k:1.0.1'
}

Set up your JFrame

public class Example extends JFrame {
    public static void main(String ... args) {
        JFrame frame = new Example();

Set dimensions using the FrameScaler. Set up the dimensions you want on a normal screen (not 4K screen).

FrameScaler frameScaler = new FrameScaler();
frameScaler.setSize(frame, new Dimension(400, 200));

To change font and font sizes you have to add a panel in JFrame. Add on top of your panel these lines. Set up the font size you want on a normal screen (not 4K screen).

UIScaler uiScaler = new UIScaler();
uiScaler.setFontSize("Arial", 12);

Now you are good to go!
