How to fix a JTable column width

java, swing Add comments

By default the column widths of a JTable are automatically set for you. To fix the width of a specified column you need to use the TableColumn for the column (there’s one for each column).

    TableColumn column = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(columnIndex);
    column.setPreferredWidth(width);
    column.setMaxWidth(width);

    Thank you! It’s so simple but I didn’t cross my mind. This is the best way to fix a column’s size that only contains a checkbox.
