How To Select Item From A List And Add It To Display Java GUI
Apr 28, 2014
I'm making an application that will allow users to view several displays simultaneously. I'm trying to make it so that the user should be able to select one of the items from a list then hit a radio button add them to the display. And there will be a second button to remove them from the display. Oh and there will always be alteast one display.
I am trying to have a user select from a printed out array list, instead of having the user type in the "bill type" each time there is a bill to avoid user error as much as possible. For example I would like to have it print out like this:
"Select bill type from list:
1. Rent 2. Car 3. etc..."
and I would like the user to choose a number and not type in the "bill type". I don't want to use "Switch case" because it would need to be an expanding and I don't think "switch case" can do that.
Here is the code:
package homebudget; class Spending { //Do i need a totalAmount variable? String type; double amount; int year, month, day; public Spending()
[Code] ....
case 2: //Give option to enter a new expense or pick from list. //How to do this? If Statement that doesn't list duplicates, or a while search?
resp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the type of expense:"); type = resp; resp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the amount of the expense:"); amount = Double.parseDouble(resp);
and the corresponding snippets of the Java code are:
// Class member variables // ... private String product; private ArrayList<String> productValues; private ArrayList<String> productLabels; private SelectItem[] products; // ... Various properties etc. public String getLocation() { // Displayed on a page
[code]....
Most of this works correctly using only ArrayList SelectItem products without the two ArrayList and the separate SelectItem[], and the values and labels are put directly into products here. The menu works and I can select an item. However, I am unable to find the correct method for finding the index in the submit method,namely:
public void submit(ActionEvent e) { showProduct = true; prodNum = products.indexOf(product); // --- Here is the problem! updateProduct(); }
which has not been changed here. In spite of trying out various ideas, prodNum always returns with -1, which means it cannot find the index of the selected product, where product is a String. Everything else seems to work correctly, and products.get(prodNum).getLabel() works if I manually give prodNum a valid index, but because it's -1 it fails.
I have a case where I have a TreeView and I use it to select items from the tree. After I select each item I then clear the TreeView selection. Then, when I select outside of the window, the setFocused is called which in turn selects item 0 from the tree. I see in the TreeView.java the code,
private InvalidationListener focusedListener = observable -> { // RT-25679 - we select the first item in the control if there is no // current selection or focus on any other cell MultipleSelectionModel<TreeItem<T>> sm = getSelectionModel(); FocusModel<TreeItem<T>> fm = getFocusModel();
I'm trying to figure out how to display a JPANEL and be able to select a file to review it, but off the bat I having problmes figuring out the first steps I have some code how to start properly or what i need to make this work,
import java.io.*; import javax.swing.*; public class checkValue { //create a Dialog box to locate the site file public static String propertiesFilePath; public static JButton siteBrowse = new JButton("Browse"); public static void main(String[] args){
All the entries in the table are of type String.However, the String content for the “Head4” column can be very larger and displaying this makes the table very large.As an alternative, is there a way to provide a button for the “Head4” for each row and when the user selects the button on that row, the corresponding “Head4” column contents is displayed in a pop up dialog box ? I am using Primefaces 5.0.
I have an Array of objects that contains strings. I am new to Java and have read books, the Java docs, and searched the Internet for my problem to no avail. How can I get my strings to print in a list so that the user can select an object to manipulate its attributes? I have a class called Instruments and created 10 guitar objects. Here is the code:
Instrument [] guitar = new Instrument[10]; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { guitar[0] = new Instrument("Guitar 1"); guitar[1] = new Instrument("Guitar 2"); guitar[2] = new Instrument("Guitar 3"); guitar[3] = new Instrument("Guitar 4");
I need to choose the value of a list item in jsp. There are many employees in various departments and i need to choose that employees in department wise.
Example. I have two list items in jsp
1. Select dept_no,dept_name from departments 2. SElect emp_name from employees, departments where emp_dept_no=curr_dept_no and curr_dept_no = dept_no
These two are the list items. When i choose the department from the first list item i need to display the employees in that particular department in the second list.
How can I insert a new item at the middle of a BookList . I have also got a Book class represting Book objects and a inner class BookNode referencing them.
public void add(Book newBook) { BookNode newNode = new BookNode(newBook); if (firstNode == null){ // no nodes in the list so add newNode at start firstNode = newNode; tempNode = newNode ; }
I would like to create a sub menu for every list item in a Jlist. I need the UI like avast interface. If we hover over an list item, its sub menu should be shown. I attempted to put an sub menu but didn't work. Is this possible in Swing?
This is supposed to be a method that adds stars after each item in the list.
Java Code:
import java.util.ArrayList; public class ClientProgram { public static void main(String[] args) { ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(); list.add("the");
[Code] ...
I'm guessing it's because list.size() changes, though but it should only find that value in the beginning, so it shouldn't be a problem?
public class Person { private SimpleStringProperty name; public SimpleStringProperty nameProperty(){ if(this.name==null){ this.name=new SimpleStringProperty();
[Code] .....
I have this:
lista = FXCollections.<Person>observableArrayList(); lista.addAll(new Person("uno"),new Person("due"),new Person("tre")); myListView.setItems(lista);
The problem is if I add /remove an item all is fine, the listView refreshes correctly:
Person p = new Person(tfld_textAdd.getText()); lista.add(0, p);
But if I change a value on an item into the observable list it doesn't:
lista.get(0).setName("new value");
I also have a table linked in the same way and the table workd correctly after I updated my Java version...
I have some questions about a GUI program overlay. My main method in the "actual code" will display information in a huge batch, which is necessary. My questions relate to this feat. I am curious because I need to look this up but I am unsure of the "name" for what I am trying to accomplish.
Can link a JButton as an action item to display information to the JTextFeilds that houses the information needed to populate the data?
If so, what are the necessary steps to ensure that my JButton class and listener are pulling the correct information upon the Event and populate the data to the JTextFeilds?
Would I need a boolean statement that captures all of the methods of "data procurement" within my JTextFeilds underneath that one button?
I am new to Java and have read books, the Java docs, and searched the Internet for my problem to no avail. I have an Array of objects that contains strings. How can I get the object's strings to print in a list so that the user can select that object to manipulate its attributes? For example, the user can select "Guitar 1" from a list and manipulate its attributes like tuning it, playing it, etc. I have a class called Instruments and created 10 guitar objects.Here is the code:
Instrument [] guitar = new Instrument[10]; for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { guitar[0] = new Instrument("Guitar 1"); guitar[1] = new Instrument("Guitar 2"); guitar[2] = new Instrument("Guitar 3"); guitar[3] = new Instrument("Guitar 4"); guitar[4] = new Instrument("Guitar 5"); guitar[5] = new Instrument("Guitar 6");
private String displayFormat = "%02d:%02d:%02d";// produces 00:00:00 hour:min:seconds public void timerHasChanged() { currentTime = System.currentTimeMillis(); // How long has been taken so far? long secsTaken = (currentTime - startTime) / 1000; long minsTaken = secsTaken / 60; secsTaken %= 60; long hoursTaken = minsTaken/60; minsTaken %= 60;
Formatter fmt = new Formatter(); fmt.format(displayFormat, hoursTaken, minsTaken, secsTaken); timerJbl.setText(fmt.toString());
How would i code the get and set method for format, so in property tab a user can choose if they want the timer shown in seconds, or minutes or hours or seconds&minutes
I need to implement an editable JComboBox. It should display a list of rivers from a database. However since the number of rivers is very large, the entries must be dynamically filled after the user has typed in three or more letters.
I have tried to solve this using a KeyAdapter. Everythings works. However after the user has typed in three characters, these three characters are selected in the Combobox. Of course when the user continues to type these chars will be replaced. I have so far not found a solution to deselect the characters and place the cursor at the end.
this.fliessgewaesserComboBox = new JComboBox<UisFliessgewaesser>(); this.fliessgewaesserComboBox.setEditable(true); this.add(this.fliessgewaesserComboBox, c); FliessgewaesserSuchenKeyAdapter fliessgewaesserSuchenKeyAdapter = new FliessgewaesserSuchenKeyAdapter(this); this.fliessgewaesserComboBox.getEditor().getEditorComponent().addKeyListener(fliessgewaesserSuchenKeyAdapter);
Write a menu driven program that either accepts words and their meanings, or displays the list of words in lexicographical order (i.e. as in a dictionary). When an entry is to be added to the dictionary you must first enter the word as one string, and then enter the meaning as separate string. Another requirement - from time to time words become obsolete. When this happens, such word must be removed from the dictionary.
Use the JOptionPane class to enter the information.
Use the concept of linked list to carryout this exercise. You will need at minimum the following classes:
- A WordMeaning class that hold the name of a word and its meaning. - A WordMeaningNode class that creates the node of information and its link field. - A WordList class that creates and maintain a linked list of words and their meanings. - A Dictionary class that test your classes.
For the output, the program should produce two scrollable lists:
- The current list of words and their meanings. - The list of the deleted words. You need not list the meanings, just the words.
So far, I have everything coded except for the remove method, and I am not sure how to code that. I coded the add method already, but now I don't know where to begin with the remove method in my WordList class. My classes are below.
WordMeaning Class:
public class WordMeaning { String name; String definition; WordMeaning(String t, String d) { name = t; definition = d;
I have encountered a very tricky spot in a project that i am working on. I must have a JTable to programmatically select the very last row in an AbstractTableModel. I have tried every thing but nothing works so far.
The problem is is that the JTable only scrolls down to the second last table row in the model? What am i missing?
//Show the very last row in a tablemodel object using the method updateTableRows //after an "insert action event" occurred public void updateViewMode(String name, java.util.List<NetworkSwitch> list, boolean flag) { CableTableModel model = cableTable.getCableModel();
[code]....
What happens is that the only row that gets selected is the second last row of the total rows iny AbstractTableModel object, "CableTableModel"
What I need to do is ask the user to input some text and then turn it into pig latin. I am confused on how to select each word from the string to determine if it ends in a way or ay. I am to assume that the letters are all lowercase and the text ends with a period.
import java.util.Scanner; public class Trial { public static void main(String [ ] args) { Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
