Swing/AWT/SWT :: Changing Color Of JList Item
Oct 23, 2014
is there a good way to change the color of a JList item that isn't selected? I'm throwing my hand at building a client/server chat app and on the client side, I need to highlight the name of the person (which is in a JList) who has sent a message to the client GUI.

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?

I'm trying to build a program which sets a fill color for a rectangle. Each time the mouse is clicked the fill color changes according to the position of the mouse's X and Y. I succeeded to create a JFrame with a changing background according to the Mouse's position, but I can't seem to change the color of the rectangle (defined in MyPanel class).
This is the current code,
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.event.MouseListener;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
[Code]...

My code is
Double qty = 0.0;
for ( int i = 0; i < ingTable.getRowCount(); i++){
qty = (Double) ingTable.getValueAt(i,2);
if( qty < 30.0){
ingTable.setBackground(Color.red);
} else {
ingTable.setBackground(Color.white);
}
}

I have a empty JList in which I hit a button LOAD DATA which should load all the data. but once I load data i try to fill in the List but I keep getting errors.
String[] aos = new String[itrList.size()];
itrList.toArray(aos);
//JList listFAIL = new JList(aos);
//list = new JList(itrList.toArray());
//list.removeAll();
list.setListData(aos);
JScrollPane s = new JScrollPane(list);
I have tried doing setListData and i get a error;
And if i do new Jlist it doesn't change the data.
The List does fill as i have a checker for that.

New to Java Swing. What I am trying to achieve here is to create an instance of the class used to populate the DefaultListModel when a JList item is selected. All examples I have seen show how to return the text displayed in the JList which really is of no practical use.
I have achieved what I want to achieve in that I am successfuly creating the selected object within my ListCellRenderer class.
For the purpose of testing I am using a call to the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog method to display the id of the selected object.
So, I launch the JFrame, the JList is populated, I select an item from the JList and the id value is displayed in the prompt. All this works fine except for one thing.
When I click OK on the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog prompt, the prompt disappears and reappears. The system seems to be in a loop. It is behaving as if the change or click event handler on the JList keeps firing.
This happens even without the creation of the object:
BookEntry be = (BookEntry)list.getModel().getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex());
I have scoured the code and object properties to see if I can figure out where this behaviour is coming from without success.
All there is in the JFrame design view is a single JList with a variable name of "list". Everything else is in code as below:
Here is the .java code. Its not that complex
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Component;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JList;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.ListCellRenderer;
import javax.swing.DefaultListModel;
public class NewJFrame3 extends javax.swing.JFrame {
[Code] .....

So I got an interesting challenge today. I think logically I know what I have to do but I'm at a complete loss as for the actual coding implementation. So I have to develop this method called moveToBack(T entry). What this is meant to do is as implies, move entry to the back of my queue. As simple as it sounds, I know that I cant just move its position that simple. I know that I'll have to essentially remove whatever the desired value is, and then re-add it to the back of the queue. The interesting problem with this, however; is that I know that the FIFO property exists for queue's.
So if the desired entry to be moved is at the 3rd position of 4, I'd have to remove positions 1 and 2 to finally get to 3. But I want it to keep those values still. So I assume what I'll have to do is remove each element of the queue (it'll only be 5 entries max for the purpose of the project) and save it somewhere, then empty the queue and finally add the elements back in while waiting and putting the desired element to the last position.
If that's the case, I'm really curious on how I would do this. I have 4 files, 2 interfaces, the main class that contains the methods and what not for the queue, and a 4th class that'll be used for running test data and testing the methods of the program. Now, I wont add the interfaces code below because those are fine and all methods that need to be added are. I just gotta improve my moveToBack method so that it does what its supposed to. (I know I should have exceptions instead of my very poor else statements, but for this project it's not necessary.)
public abstract class NoDuplicatesQueueWilson<T> implements NoDuplicatesQueueInterfaceWilson<T>
{
private int MAX_QUEUE = 5; // Default array size, small for testing purposes
private T[] items; // The array of the queue.
private int front; // The first entered item of a queue.
private int back; // The last entered item of a queue.
private int count; // A counter.
[Code] ....

The Toys of the Future Company has decided to issue a new line of toy robots. While they are not sure exactly what their robots will look like, they do know the functionality that they will all have. All robots will be able to move forward, turn right, turn left, spin and detect an object in front of it via a sensor. The robot will use a touch sensor to determine whether it has hit an object in front of it, such as a wall. The robot will have two, three, or four wheels, but it will only be driven by two of them: a right wheel and a left wheel. Each wheel will be attached to a motor that controls it.
* ^ this is only something to think about
Produce a UML class diagram.
Using UML, describe the objects and classes that will be associated with this new toy. Either hand draw or use an appropriate UML creation tool to generate a UML design document for your Robot class. Create a set of classes that can be used to control the robot.
Develop your new class.
Create a new NetBeans project entitled, "Assignment_8_1" and develop your new class. Now, using the objects and classes that you have written, write a program for your robot that allows it to move in a large square. Allow your robot to run in a big two dimensional array and every time the robot encounters a square in your array, turn that square black.
So here is the code for the moving ball:
package ballapplet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.Formatter;
import javax.swing.*;
public class BallApplet extends JPanel {
private static final int BOX_WIDTH = 640;
[Code] ....
I want to know how to change the color of an object, and how to move it in specific directions.

I would like to draw a rectangle around a certain part of an image.
So I wrote this:
Pixel[] pixels = scene.getPixels();
for( Pixel pixel : pixels)
{
if(pixel >= point.getX() && pixel <= (point.getX()+p2.getWidth())
{
pixel.setGreen(150);
}
}
But the error is giving me incompatible types. I would like to set all the pixels at a certain point up to the dimensions of my rectangle and so on. How would I do that?

In the image, the color of the frame of the window/JFrame is black. My question is that can we set the color of this frame, or is it just provided by the operating system and whatever color is default color of windows in an operating system will appear in our application?
I am talking about the frame, the boundary in the JFrame container which contains the close, maximize, and minimize buttons.

I am trying to create a virus simulation program. The program is supposed to just be a map of the world where the user can click any country in the world to specify where they want their virus to start, specify how transmittable the virus is, and be able to see how the virus spreads through the world by seeing a change in color throughout the world,
I want the world map to initially start out with a very light yellow, and as areas of the world slowly start to get more and more infected by the virus, I want those areas on the map to start changing to a very dark red (going from a light yellow, through shades of orange and red, to dark red).
So, the main idea of this is to have a program that displays an image where certain parts of the image will slowly change color during the runtime of the program. I obviously know how to change colors of certain parts of a window or even an image, and how to even start this.

how to change the color of an output element in Eclipse? Can't seem to find it anywhere on the internet.For example, a response to my question 'What color do you want?' could be 'red'. I added an if-statement, which states if input = red, start using a red colored 'X' as string for further output.How do I obtain the color red for my X?? Or isn't it possible changing the color of output elements?

I am currently writing a chess application in Java swing. For the GUI part, I have one MainWindow class, and one ChessBoard class. The MainWindow has a main panel, in which is contained 1) a panel containing the chessboard from the chessboard class (a grid layout array of 64 JLabels), 2) a JLabel status bar, and 3) a JList to hold the moves of the game. I have a movePiece method in the chessboard class, which I would like to add the move and question to the moves list, which is contained in the main window class.
However, since JList is some special type, I can't make it static ( that gives me an error ). I also tried creating a method in the main window class to add a move to the list, which I would then access via the chessboard class. However, I can't make the method static, because it is referencing a non-static variable ( the JList ), and since the Main window class already has an object of the chessboard class, trying to create a main window object in the chessboard class creates a stack overflow error.

I have an addressBook GUI where I have a JList that populates with the contacts names, and once I double click a contacts name I'm wanting to fill the textfields with the contacts corresponding data.
ex) ContactType: Family (enum), Name: Zoidberg, Address: 111 Space Drive, City: New York City, etc...
I've got it to where I select open from the JMenu, it populates the JList, but once I select a contacts name, all the textfields are populated, but only with the contacts name
ex) Name: Zoidberg, Address: Zoidberg, City: Zoidberg, etc....
What am i doing wrong here, and how can i fix it to where it fills out the correct data?
Here's my code so far:
public class AddressBookGUI extends JFrame {
private final int WIDTH = 450;
private final int HEIGHT = 300;
private JLabel currentlySelected;
private JTextField contactTypeTextField;
[code]...
I'm certain the logic is messed up near the end where i set all text fields to the index, because no matter what field i want to fill it's at it's going to set it to whatever index I select, but I don't know how to fix it.

I have a JList<Object> in my code (it actually takes JLabels) called imageList, and I've given it a custom CellRenderer using the following code:
cellRenderer = new DefaultListCellRenderer() {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Override
public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList<?> list,
Object value, int index, boolean isSelected,
boolean cellHasFocus) {
[Code] .....
However, when I click anywhere on the JList, nothing gets printed to the console, which suggests that the mousePressed() method isn't being invoked. I think it's a problem with the CellRenderer, because I have similar code elsewhere that works, the only difference being I don't use a custom CellRenderer.

I am trying to create a GUI interface in swing which consists of four classes: a GUI class, which creates a main JPanel, a label, and a JList, which it takes from the second class, a MovesList class that contains a JList and the stuff needed to interface with it. It also has a main class, which basically just creates an object of the GUI class for the main window, and an Other class from which I would like to be able to add an item to the JList. I created methods in the MovesList class to get each component (like getMoveslist, or getMovesListScrollPane), which I then used to create the JList in the GUI class. I also created an addMove method so that I can add an item to the JList from any class through a MovesList object. However, this addMove method only works when called from the GUI or MovesList classes -- it does nothing when I collect from the Other class.
Here is my code:
//Main class
public class TestProject {
public static void main(String[] args) {
GUI mainWindow = new GUI();
mainWindow.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
[Code] ....
When I run this code, I get a window with a JLabel that says "Moves," and a JList that contains five elements -- test 1-test 5, but not a sixth "test from other class." ( using the add move method ) However, when I click on the window, the addMove method is also called, and successfully adds "test 6" to the list.

I have a large JPanel which uses a GridBagLayout in which I put other JPanels inside the cells. The main JPanel is then added to a JScrollPane. What I'm looking to provide the user a way to automatically scroll to a particular item in the scrollable area (i.e. each of the child JPanels would represent - let's say a person for argument sake - and an user would like to click a button or bring that JPanel into focus / view.
The JPanels are added within a loop to the grid and references of these JPanels at the moment aren't store in an array or anything, so it's a case of being added and that's it. Also there's the case of where was the object exactly added and also how to have the scrollbar move to the proper focus location (both horizontally and vertically).

It's very simple, I've added an AWT component/control (specifically a Choice object to a Frame. It's a pop-up menu by any other name.
Above the pop-up, there's a label. I'm trying to change its font to no success.
* I create Label object called label1: Label label1 = new Label("This is a pop-up")
* I create a Font object called f: Font f = new Font("Times New Roman, Font.BOLD, 18)
* I apply the new font to the label: (in AFrame's constructor) label1,setFont(f)
When displayed the label's font seems to be stuck on Arialor something similar. Changing the point size however does have an effect.
import java.awt.Choice;
import java.awt.event.ItemEvent;
import java.awt.event.ItemListener;
/**
* Defines a 'pop-up' AWT control that will be added to AFrame.
* It extends Choice - I may need extra functionality later.
*/
public class APopUp extends Choice implements ItemListener {
// instance variables
int noi; // no of items
String selected; // item selected from choice

I am developing a java based software connected with a mysql database. I have an Item table in my database. I created a bean class which can keep all item data with it and. Then I loaded each Item data in to its object and fill a Jcombobox. Now I want to search with Item name and get all Item data when selecting that item. I have overidden the toString method to Item name in that class. Is there any way to search my Item objects inside a jcombobox?
