Re: When resizing text to fill a JLabel the text sometimes "jiggles", how do I fix this?

If this is what you meant, I have added more code so it can be more easily compiled.

public static void main(String[] args) {
        JFrame window = new JFrame();
        JLabel label = new JLabel("Hey! That's pretty good!");
        window.add(label);
        window.setSize(300,300);
        label.setFont(getMaxFontSize(label,label.getText()));
        window.setVisible(true);
}

public static Font getMaxFontSize(Component comp, String text) { 
        Font compFont = comp.getFont(); 
        String compText = text; 
        int stringWidth = questionLabel.getFontMetrics(compFont).stringWidth(compText); 
        int compWidth = comp.getWidth()-75; 
         
        if (stringWidth == 0) { 
                stringWidth++; 
        } 
        double widthRatio = (double)compWidth / (double)stringWidth; 
         
        int newFontSize = (int)(compFont.getSize() * widthRatio); 
        int compHeight = comp.getHeight(); 
         
        int fontSizeToUse = Math.min(newFontSize, compHeight); 
         
        if (fontSizeToUse < 1) { 
                return new Font(compFont.getName(), Font.PLAIN, 1); 
        } 
        return new Font(compFont.getName(), Font.PLAIN, fontSizeToUse); 
}
