I believe minimum and maximum are preferences ysed by layout managers.
They dont actually restrict direct sizing. If you want to restrict size
do it in the edit policy or edit part.

Your figure's final size is determined by its parent figure's layout
manager; not the figure's own layout manager. Make sure that the parent
figure actually has a layout manager and that it uses the figure's
minimum size to computer the final size.

Your figure should be returning a preferred size that is at least as big as
the minimum size. ToolbarLayout only respects the minimum size in the minor
dimension. Some other layouts might completely ignore the minimum size.
It's better to use the preferred size to size your figures. In your case,
the flow layout is determining what the preferred size of f will be. Since
f has no children, just a border, it returns a preferred size of (2,2). If
you add a few figures to f (and set their sizes to some random size), you'll
see that f grows accordingly. If you want f to have a minimum size even
when it's empty, override FlowLayout's calculatePreferredSize() and union
super.calculatePreferredSize() with figure.getMinimumSize().
