Sorry this answer is way too long :|
For relocation and readjustments use this code, its a small code from netbeans GUI JFrame drag and drop feature:

Use this Class for Frame Draggign in your code:
class FrameDragListener extends MouseAdapter {
private final JFrame frame;
private Point mouseDownCompCoords = null;
public FrameDragListener(JFrame frame) {
this.frame = frame;
}
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
mouseDownCompCoords = null;
}
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
mouseDownCompCoords = e.getPoint();
}
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
Point currCoords = e.getLocationOnScreen();
frame.setLocation(currCoords.x - mouseDownCompCoords.x, currCoords.y - mouseDownCompCoords.y);
}
}
also you can create your own titleBar if you want, it will be much cooler. Contact me if you need more info.
This is the code from a class, hope u find something good from it :)
