Swing/AWT/SWT :: Panels Switching On A Single Frame Using Netbeans Builder
Feb 3, 2014
I am writing a ComputerBaseTest application with Netbeans. I have each question on a panel and I want the questions(panels) to be switched, viewing the previous and the next question on a single frame, but I do not know how.
I only understand frame switching if each questn is to be on a frame but each score on each question (frame) do not sum up to give the overall score at the end of the test. Using multi-frame shows a sign of bad programming.
I read the oracle doc example, i understand the concept but still nothing is happening on show,first ,next method of CardLayout in ActionPerformed. Code is highlighted where I am facing problem.
I wrote the following code to get a frame,button in south and a red color circle,which i got.In the "actionPerformed" method i wrote "setContentPane(mp2)" thinking it would put another panel on the frame with a blue circle but when i pushed the button,the button got stuck and the circled did not change.
import java.io.*; import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; class Fra implements ActionListener { MyPanel2 mp2; JFrame frame; JButton button; public static void main(String[] args)
I'm having trouble with this program. In my textbook it says "Write an application that displays a frame containing two panels. Each panel should contain two images (use four unique images - your choice). Fix the size of the first panel so that both of its images remain side by side. Allow the other panel to change size as needed. Experiment with the size of the window to see the images change orientation. Make sure you understand why the application behaves as it does". I successfully imported the images, but I can't find out anywhere how to allow the second panel to change size with the window.
import java.awt.*; import javax.swing.*; public class TwoPanels { public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame frame = new JFrame ("Embedded Images"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); ImageIcon iconOne = new ImageIcon ("glove.jpg"); ImageIcon iconTwo = new ImageIcon ("cleats.jpg"); ImageIcon iconThr = new ImageIcon ("bat.jpg"); ImageIcon iconFou = new ImageIcon ("baseball.jpg");
I have a Single Frame Application and I simply want to prompt the user with a dialog confirming they really want to close before they actually close the program, specifically when they click the X in the upper right. I THOUGHT it was like any other java application, with the slight added complexity of having to target the program-created-JFrame with: ".getApplication().getMainFrame()".
With that code, DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE is set on the JFrame, yet the program closes anyways. Which I don't understand.So I did some reading and found this: URL....That lead me to the configureWindow override, where I successfully tried this:
root.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
@Override public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) { // write your code here System.out.println("Window Closing"); } });
But as far as I can tell that will only let me react to the window closing, not to the command to close it, where I could then kill the command in the dialog if they so "no I'm not ready to quit yet", if that makes sense. So, how to give a prompt before closing?I am using netbeans IDE to create this app - not sure if that is relevant, since maybe it is an oddity with the IDE and not Single Frame Applications.
I am building a GUI application which consists of two panels "panel" and "panel1". "panel1" have a button "addTimer" when clicked it should add the "panel" to the frame if i gain click the button it should again add the "panel" without overlapping the previous "panel" rather it should be created below the previous "panel". If i click on the button "addTimer" n times it should add the panel n times. Along with this the frame size has to dynamically change depending on the number of panels produced. Below is the code i tried my level best to satisfy the above conditions.
package superTimerV2; import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class SuperTimer extends JFrame { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
When I click on "Clean and Build" NetBeans generates a .jar file and inside the folder "dist" it add a directory called "lib" with all the java libraries used to implement the program. I would like to achieve with this IDE an unique .jar file that includes everything you need such as Eclipse does by default. Is it possible?
i want to know how i can add more than one frame in a single frame means main window or frame will be constant and only components will be chang or vary as in a software or game .
I cannot get my panels to appear in my GUI when I run my program. There is probably a really simple fix for this but it is taking me hours. This program is a working progress and I have just included two classes out of five. That should be adequate to diag my problem.
import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; public class OrderCalc extends JFrame { private final int WINDOW_WIDTH = 200; private final int WINDOW_HEIGHT = 200;
The question is when I hit the maximize button on the JFrame my panel instantly goes to the top left corner of the JFrame. Is it possible to center the panel inside the JFrame, when the maximize button is pushed? I am familiar with push and grow that MigLayout uses but this isn't exactly what I need. I don't want several textFields to span the screen. Instead I would rather have the panel centered.
This is just a sample project to test out the MigLayout API
Is it good practice to create a inner class for layered panels with lots of components? In my opinion this makes the code easier to read and a lot less clustered.
one of the java swing challenge I am facing. Problem statement: there are two JPanels panel 1 and panel 2 placed on a JFrame one below the other as panel 2 below panel 1. Now, I need to put a JButton in any one of the panels such that this JButton displays half in panel 1 and half in panel 2.
I want build to build a website buider in java that contains drag & drop functionality for editing templates of websitesI need to build a replica of the site URL....I want to know what framework would i use for building this in java whether it shuold be swings,awt or some other i need to integerate in java like flex or something.how to get started with this.
I simply want to paint an image on my frame, just once each time the paint() method is called, but how to call the paint method in any good way. This is how it looks:
So I have an array of objects, each with their own position, I tried switch the references in the array of two objects, then repainted (immediately), but the two objects aren't switching positions on screen...does this even work?
i have problem with the following two java classes, driver class Reservations and Room class. When i run, it just show blank frame, tell me where i gone wrong.
import javax.swing.JOptionPane; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class Reservations extends Frame implements ActionListener { Color lightRed=new Color(255,90,90); Color lightGreen=new Color(140,215,40); Rooms room=new Rooms(5,3);
I am in the progress of updating my code and re-testing after switching from Java 6 to Java 7. When I open multiple JInternalFrames in my application under java 6 I am used to closing the top most internal frame and having the frame immediately under it become the next active frame. When I run the same code under Java 7 I see a different behaviour in as much as when I close the last frame I opened, the next one to become active is the first one.
To illustrate this another way, lets say I open 5 internal frames, 1,2,3,4 & 5
In java 6 when I close frame 5, frame 4 becomes the active frame.
In java 7 when I close frame 5, frame 1 becomes the active frame.
I have been doing a project of ERP solution using JAVA AWT FRAMES and MYSQL(for database purpose). Here there is an ADMIN portion, who has the authority to make PAYROLLS of individual employees. There is a Frame where individual employee details will be shown(like basic salary, HRA, no.of leaves, other allowances...etc) in text boxes.
Now what i want is to make a PDF file of that payroll, so that I can make a hardcopy of it. The idea is just like anyother online form fill-up, where at the end you submit and save (or export) as a PDF (or text file) document. But I mention that it is a stanalone project, not an online one (i think it doesn't matter though).
So the basic idea is how to make a PDF file by extracting the text field or choice contents from a frame in JAVA AWT.
my IDE doesn't seem to recognize that my program is a Swing app.I get the following error message when I run the app: "jtabledemo.JTableDemo class wasn't found in JTableDemo project."It compiles successfully though.Here is the code verbatim:
ActionPerformed and ActionListener on Netbeans...If I create a ComboBox on Netbeans using GUI design, then I right click over the Combobox I can find Events - Action - ActionPerformed... but I can't find ActionListener...
Are ActionPerformed and ActionListener the same?
or...
where is ActionListener on GUI Netbeans? Do I need to manualy write the ActionListener part?
I have dragged and dropped a jTextArea from netbeans palette onto my form. But when I right clicked for Event > action > actionPerformed for implementation, I realized such was not there, unlike the jTextField component. For example, I have tried this but it didn't work:
I would like a small box to be able to enter a contacts information and I started with building it thru netbeans. Now I am thinking I should start from scratch so I understand everything. What should I do? I am having trouble making the buttons at the bottom work. All I would like to be able to do is setFrameVisible(false); but I can't seem to be able to do that without loosing the whole project not just the frame I am working on.
The buttons I am referencing are the Cancel & Accept
public class pa4GUI extends javax.swing.JFrame { String ph; String ln; String fn; String em; String or;
I am trying to make a 2d graphical animation using the java swing classes in order to make a frame. I had a basic version working when all of the code was under the main method, but when I moved some into another method it broke it. With y understanding of java my code should work as I create a variable of the method containing the code and then assign the size and exit button. However this causes many problems such as my BeaconFrame method informing me that it is unused when I have used it. Here is my code:
import javax.swing.*; import java.awt.*; public class BelishaBeacon { public void BeaconFrame() { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); JPanel panel1 = new JPanel();
