Check for the scrollBarPolicies of the ScrollPane.
Set them to as_needed or as_always.
Then check the weight and autoscrolls settings for the cells.
Check the insets and internal padding settings for the cells also.
And set fixedWidth to false it there is such property.

The scrollbars were set as_needed.
And I don't see how I have access to the cells. I only have a TableModel for
MyTable. Do you mean yhay I should use a TableCellRenderer?

I should say that if I change the width of one column, then all other
collumns change their width and the table is displayed correctly. But I want
it displayed correctly from the first moment.

Maybe you have set the preferredSize of your table columns. When repainting a
JTable, Java always respects the preferredSize of a column. The fact that there
are
noScrollbars may be because of the JTable's autoResizeMode. Scrollbars are only
visible if the autoResizeMode was set to JTable.AUTO_RESIZE_OFF.
