Swing/AWT/SWT :: Changing Text Of JLabel From Another Class

May 26, 2014

Create a dnd (dungeons and dragons) character creator and back ground generator, have it display and run on a gui, to start with i decided to creator the gui as i go so i can see the progress, first i tried eclipse and windows builder, well after 1 day of reinstalling windows builder in about 5 different ways from multiple guides and sometimes getting it to partly work ...

After doing some more research I have figured out how to get the main program to display the gui . Heres what i have:

package com.mrgreaper;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MainWindow {
private JPanel mainWindow;
private JLabel playerlbl;
private JLabel playerNamelbl;

[Code] .....

Now this works fine and the gui displays when the program is run but I can't change the text of any of the jlabels or textfield. If I try to do it in the main class i need to change them from private to public static but then in the form builder it says "cannot bind to static field *name of field*" but if i take static off then i cant change its value!

From what i understand this is because the window is an instance, so how to i change the value in that instance? I could put all my code in the one class, the one that creates the gui, but i really want it seperate, i would like the gui to update as the code runs... So how do i do it, how do i change the contents of jlabels on the fly, read the contents of text boxes on the fly etc....

I tried adding a getter setter

public void setCharFirst(JLabel charFirst) {
this.charFirst = charFirst;
}
in the MainWindow.class

Then i tried to set it from my main function

MainWindow.setCharFirst("test");

but it cant access it as my main function is static and it is not now can i make it static...

JPanel Class Won't Create JLabel

Jun 1, 2014

So I am making a JPanel with two JLabels and it isn't working right.

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class IntroPanel extends JPanel
{
public IntroPanel() {
setBackground(Color.green);

[Code] ....

For some reason

JLabel 11 = new JLabel("Layout Manger Demonstration");
JLabel 12 = new JLabel ("Choose a tab to see an example of a layout manger.");

add(11);
add(12);

is not registering the JLabel or add functions.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: JLabel Does Not Display

May 8, 2014

I'm having problems getting my program to display a JLabel. The program draws shapes of random size and color across a panel. I have this part working. (There is more code for the drawing of shapes, I left it out for easier reading). When I try to add a JLabel in the main method, it does not display.

import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
public class TestDraw {

Apr 24, 2014

I am trying to write an application where if you click and hold down on 1 button and move the mouse to another button and release the text on the 2 buttons should be switched around.I have a print line so I can se the text are supposed to get switched around but it is just not happening in the GUI.

Swing/AWT/SWT :: JTextField Size Changes With JLabel Text Length

Nov 11, 2014

I want to create 3 JTextFields in a row with all being of equal size.But my first Text field gets so wide than the other two.After adding each component at a time and seeing what causes the problem I realized that if I type a long text for the JLabel that's when this problem occurs.If I reduce the length of the text in the JLabel JTextFields get into the sizes I want. Here's my code

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.lang.Math;
public class Calculator1 extends JFrame {
JTextField value1=new JTextField("0");
JTextField value2=new JTextField("0");

[Code] ....

How can I stop the JTextFields changing size when I change the JLabel label1's text length...

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Changing Text Of JLabel By Pressing A Button?

I don't get what I missed in the code. I used the example of changing the text of a button by clicking on it, but instead I also added a JLabel and tried to make the button change its text instead, but it didn't work. What did I do wrong?

import java.awt.event.*;

Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Make JLabel Hyperlink Change Depending On JTextField

Jul 30, 2014

This is a part of my program. When the user enters "Exam Schedule" in the JtextField and clicks the add button I want the link to change to a link that opens a local pdf file. And if the user enters "Academic Calendar" the Jlabel will be set to another link. So far this works fine but the problem is that if you erase the textfield and enter another value the link of the previous value will still be there.

public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e){
if (e.getSource ==add) {
if (text.getText().equalsIgnoreCase("Exam Schedule")){
link1.setText(text.getText());
link1.setCursor(Cursor.getPredefinedCursor(Cursor.HAND_CURSOR));

Swing/AWT/SWT :: Getting Jlabel Icons To Change Size With Window Resize?

Feb 20, 2014

I'm trying to create a chess program in java swing, and for the board I'm using an 8 by 8 array of jlabels stuck inside a jpanel with a grid layout. I would like the board to change size when the window changes size, and the grid layout accomplishes this succesfully, until I add the actual icons to the jlabels. Then the board just stays a fixed size. Someone suggested I use their "Stretch Icon" class, found here:[URL] ...., so I tried initializing the icons using one of the constructors in the class (the one that takes an image name and a boolean value for whether or not you want the resisizing to be proportionate (to maintain the aspect ratio)). However, the same thing happened. The board appears, but it does not resisize. To attempt to fix this problem, I tried simplifying my code, reducing the program to two jlabels within the jpanel, for which I then tried to set the image in the same way. Here is my simplified code:

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;

[Code] ....

I'm misusing the stretch icon class, or just generally what's going wrong/how to fix it?

Cannot Access Function Of Extended Class

Apr 21, 2015

I have a linked list of objects of a class I created called BaseballPlayer. I also have a Fielder and Pitcher class that extends BaseballPlayer. The linked list and list nodes accept elements of type BaseballPlayer. I put into the linked list both Fielder objects and Pitcher objects. The Pitcher class has a method that returns a float variable that is only found in the Pitcher class called EarnedRunAverage. However, in my main program it won't let me access the method. It says: The method getERavg() is undefined for the type BaseballPlayer. It does however, let me access methods in the super-class BaseballPlayer.

Here is main code and the Pitcher class code.

ListNode p = list.getFirst().next;
while(p!=null){
if(p.player instanceof Fielder){
sortedFielders.append(Integer.toString(p.player.getNum()) +',');

[Code]....

for(int i = 0; i < r.length; i++) {

Static Nested Class Access

Feb 9, 2015

While playing with arrays I've written this code:

import java.util.Arrays;
import java.util.Comparator;
class SimpleHolder extends Object {
private final int value;
public SimpleHolder(int value) {
this.value = value;

[Code] ....

According to The Java Tutorial, static nested classes should not have access to other members of the enclosing class. I'd suppose to get compile-time error in the BasicComparator class. However, my code compiles just fine. Am I missing something?

Scanner Class - Can't Seem To Access Methods

May 9, 2014

I have two classes built for this assignment. One with getters, setters and constructor and a test class. The test class works fine up until the point when the user wants to (M)odify an employee that he/she built with the loadEmployee method. What happens is I need to enter multiple "M" inputs before anything pops up, and when something pops up, it's the displayMenu instead of modifyEmployee method. I imagine it has something to do with the amount of sc.nextLine()

import java.util.Scanner; // utilize scanner via console
import java.text.NumberFormat; // allows numbers to be format in form of currency
//Example of "big loop" in main to repeat using a No Trip (0,N) test first
public class EmployeeTest {
// space provided to make code easier on eyes...
