Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:Box.Filler [NONE]
- All Implemented Interfaces: ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible Enclosing class: Box
      public static class Box.Filler
      extends JComponent
      implements Accessible
An implementation of a lightweight component that participates in layout but has no view. Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`.

### constructor:Filler(java.awt.Dimension, java.awt.Dimension, java.awt.Dimension) [NONE]
- #### Filler
      @ConstructorProperties(value={"minimumSize","preferredSize","maximumSize"})
      public Filler(Dimension min,
                                                                                                Dimension pref,
                                                                                                Dimension max)
Constructor to create shape with the given size ranges. Parameters: `min` - Minimum size `pref` - Preferred size `max` - Maximum size

### method:changeShape(java.awt.Dimension, java.awt.Dimension, java.awt.Dimension) [NONE]
- #### changeShape
      public void changeShape(Dimension min,
                              Dimension pref,
                              Dimension max)
Change the size requests for this shape. An invalidate() is propagated upward as a result so that layout will eventually happen with using the new sizes. Parameters: `min` - Value to return for getMinimumSize `pref` - Value to return for getPreferredSize `max` - Value to return for getMaximumSize

### method:paintComponent(java.awt.Graphics) [NONE]
- #### paintComponent
      protected void paintComponent(Graphics g)
Paints this `Filler`. If this `Filler` has a UI this method invokes super's implementation, otherwise if this `Filler` is opaque the `Graphics` is filled using the background. Overrides: `paintComponent` in class `JComponent` Parameters: `g` - the `Graphics` to paint to Throws: `NullPointerException` - if `g` is null Since: 1.6 See Also: `JComponent.paint(java.awt.Graphics)`, `ComponentUI`

### method:getAccessibleContext() [NONE]
- #### getAccessibleContext
      public AccessibleContext getAccessibleContext()
Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this Box.Filler. For box fillers, the AccessibleContext takes the form of an AccessibleBoxFiller. A new AccessibleAWTBoxFiller instance is created if necessary. Specified by: `getAccessibleContext` in interface `Accessible` Overrides: `getAccessibleContext` in class `Component` Returns: an AccessibleBoxFiller that serves as the AccessibleContext of this Box.Filler.
