Swing/AWT/SWT :: How To Code Button That Get Selected Element From JComboBox And Perform Operations
Aug 6, 2014
i've spend an hour or two, pasting fragments from tutorials and nothing changed.
Well - i have GUI, that have JComboBox with two elements:
String[] fedoras = { "Fedora 19", "Fedora 20" };
JComboBox fedora_list = new JComboBox(fedoras);
fedora_list.setSelectedIndex(0);
fedora_list.setBounds(120,170, 170,25);
fedora_list.addActionListener(this);
this.add(fedora_list);
Below i have normal button (named Update) with "update" set as ActionCommand. This button after clicked should check which value from list is selected and perform different operations for that elements. But it's harder than i thought.
Code for update button:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
String cmd = e.getActionCommand();
(...)
else if ("update".equals(cmd)){
String selectedFedora = (String) fedora_list.getSelectedItem();
if (selectedFedora.equals("Fedora 19")) {
[code]....
- after user clicked Update button, button should check which value is selected in JComboBox (fedora_list).
- if Fedora 19 is selected and button clicked, then action in Xterm
- if Fedora 20 is selected, this same action in Xterm is performed, but for Fedora Linux 20
The problem is - i don't know hot to code Update button to check which value from fedora_list (JComboBox) is selected and perform other actions for every element on List.
I have a program where I have to open a file and then run a piece of code to do something with it. However since there are different files I want to run different pieces of code depending on the file. I have a JFileChooser setup and it works but I would like to have a something like an if else depending on the file extension.
I was wanting to select an item in a comboBox and display it in a text field but all it's doing at the minute is retrieving the first item in the comboBox and placing that in the txt field
String value = (String) comboBoxEnv.getSelectedItem().toString(); if(comboBoxEnv.getSelectedItem()!= null){ txtTo.setText(value);
CommPortIdentifier portIdentifier = CommPortIdentifier.getPortIdentifier(port); if (portIdentifier.isCurrentlyOwned()) { System.out.println("Error: Port is currently in use"); } else { CommPort commPort = portIdentifier.open(this.getClass().getName(), 2000);
[Code].....
To set the serial port parameters i need to use Integers instead of strings.
My database contains path of images that I want my jComboBox to diaplay. I have written the following code but it does not work for comboBox but works fine when I display image on jLabel etc. How should I go about this
I lately started using "advanced" Swing-Components, like JTabbedPane and JComboBox, but I dont get the ComboBox working/This is the code I use:
public class PreferencesPanel extends JPanel { public PreferencesPanel (MapEditWindow window) { super ();
setLayout (new FlowLayout ());
String[] resolutions = { "1024x768", "1280x800"
[code]...
The TabbedPane is placed in another JPanel, which is placed in an Fullscreen-Window.
Now, the problem is, that when I start the application and open the "Preferences"-Tab, everything seems normal, I can see the ComboBox and the first entry is selected. But when I click it, instead of opening and offering me more choices, the program crashes and my screen turns black (I'm using OS X, on Windows it would possibly turn white, but I didnt test this out).
I have posted a class ReadExcelDemo and I have this working correctly and can println and get my desired outcome. Where I am having issues is with taking that data and filling a JComboBox drop down menu which is the last line of code where I am getting the error Array Dimension missing.
implementing a swings application. I have a JFrame containing 2 JPanels : Top & Bottom panel. Top panel has a Jcombobox, Botton panel contain a Graph plot. On changing value in combo box, graph plot should get updated. I thought of adding actionlistener to Jcombobox. Not sure what to implement in its actionPerformed()
I am developing an application using Java Swing on Netbeans using Java DB, In which i want to create a form using Jtextfields & JComboBox.

I am trying to use a JComboBox with a simple ListCellRenderer
public class EntscheidendeBehoerdeListRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer<EntscheidendeBehoerde> { private static final Color HIGHLIGHT_COLOR = new Color(0, 0, 128); private static final long serialVersionUID = -4719965772580952993L; public Component getListCellRendererComponent( JList<? extends EntscheidendeBehoerde> list, EntscheidendeBehoerde value, int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus) {
[code].....
The JCombox shows and odd behavior, when I point to an item it moves up or down and an empty line appears under the cursor.
I have a JTable which shows pdf files. In Addition I can check if they have errors, if it so I can generate a "report" by clicking the pdf. But the report gives me errors from all of the pdfs in the table. How can I match the error messages to the pdf which I select?
Here is one of the checking methods:
public static void testAllPagesHaveSameRotation(PDFDocument pdf) throws PDFDocumentException { if (SettingsGui.testAllPagesHaveSameRotation.isSelected()) { if (pdf.getPages() == 0) { rotationError = ""; } else { rotationError = "";
I have three JComboBoxes. When the user selects an entry in the first JComboBox the entries in the second are set. For this I use an Action extends AbstractAction which is bound to the first JComboBox.
I have also bound an Action to the second JComboBox.
Problem: this also fires when the entries on the second JCombox are added which leads to a Nullpointer.
I need a Listener which only reacts to user input, and does not react when the model of the JComboBox is changed.
How can I add values from a JComboBox to a JTable ? I've created a drop down list and a button and I want the values to be added to a table whenever i click on the button (add).
in the SSCCE, the ItemListener is not triggered when I add a FocusListener for it beforehand.How can I make them both function when either focus is lost or when an item is selected?
There are 8 JCheckboxes, which are already added to panel and aligned in group layout. From which, I have selected one JCheckbox. Then the resultant GUI should contain only remaining 7 JCheckboxes and selected one should temporarily removed or hide from GUI . Is it possible? If so, how?
I have a combobox with this PopupMenuListener. All works fine, except that the popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible method does not capture the selection made and neither does it show the selection.
PopupMenuListener pmlMqMessagePurged = new PopupMenuListener() { @SuppressWarnings("unchecked") public void popupMenuWillBecomeVisible(PopupMenuEvent arg0) { try { JdbcSqlServerDataSource ds = new JdbcSqlServerDataSource( DbConnectionURL.UToolDbHostName, 0,
[Code] .....
The popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible does fire but the System.out.println() returns 'nul'l as answer to the value i have selected from the combobox.
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?
I have two classes - One is Read.java and the other is Display.java
Read.java looks like this
public static void main(String[]args){ File file = new File("test.txt"); try{ FileReader fr = new FileReader(file); BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(fr);
[Code] ....
Display.java looks like this:
public class Display extends JFrame { private JComboBox comboBox; private JPanel contentPane;
/** * Launch the application. */ public static void main(String[] args) { //method call to access other class
[Code] ....
Instead of having it so it displays the id's to the console,is there a way I can set it straight up to the combo box?
I need to take the value of what's typed in my JTextField, and once the submit button is clicked, I want to add that string to my JComboBox list items.
Depending which RadioButton they selected, I need to put the team in HOME or AWAY teams, and so on and so on, until they continue clicking submit.
My question is related to combo boxes. A combo box in general is a text field with a dropdown list. I would want to know if we can replace hthe dropdown List by an other component, for example a JTable component.
