On minimizing application,the components of the frame become unordered

Hi all,
On minimizing application,the components of the frame become unordered in Swings.Can anyone suggest wat to do?
Regards,
Mansi

Please do not cross-post questions in multiple forums. This will frustrate anyone who tries to help you only to find out later that the same answer was given hours ago in a cross-posted thread. For this reason, many volunteers here and at the other sites refuse to help repeat offenders. Also, your not replying to posts in the previous thread before posting here suggests that you aren't reading the suggestions, so why should we bother putting in any effort to help you if you don't demonstrate that its worth our doing so?

I have made a book of my I Photo pictures. In certain layouts there is a textframe. How can I avoid the frame becoming visible in the print if I don't want to write anything? Should I just leave it or should I delete the text "Write your text here" ?

I have made a book of my iPhoto pictures. In certain layouts there is a text frame. How can I avoid the frame becoming visible in the print if I don't want to write anything? Should I just leave it untouched or should I delete the instructing text "Write your text here"?

Most pages have layouts for pictures only or pictures with text boxes. Either select the same layout for that page but the one without the text box or put a space in the text box.
Putting a space in the text box will avoid getting the warning when ordering that there's an unfilled text box in the book. The box will not be visible in the final product. You can and should check the book before ordering by previewing it as described in this Apple document: iPhoto '11: Preview a book, card, or calendar before you order or print it

How to get the frame rate of my application

Hi again...
How can I get the frame rate of my application?
I also want the frame rate value to be the title of the frame, updated every second. How do I do that?
thanks in advance...

To get the path where your application has been installed you have to do the following:
have a class called "what_ever" in the folder.
then you do a litte:
String path=
what_ever.class.getRessource("what_ever.class").toString()
That get you a string like:
file:/C:/Program Files/Cool_program/what_ever.class
Then you process the result a little to remove anything you don't want:
path=path.substring(path.indexOf('/')+1),path.lastIndexOf('/'))
//Might be a little error here but you should find out //quickly if it's the case
And here you go, you have a nice
C:/Program Files/Cool_program
which is the path to your application.
Hooray

Problem with dragged component after resizing the frame

My application is simple: I am displaying an image on a panel inside a frame (JFrame). I am able to drag the image inside the panel. My problem is that, after dragging the image around, if I am resizing the frame, the image goes back to its original position.
Does anyone know a workaround?
I have been using the sample provided by noah in his answer (reply no. 3) to a previous question on this forum: http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=126148
Thank you!

Chek out the visibility of your components. Some operations may render them invisible. Use the setVisible( boolean ) to make them visible.

How to access the handle of the Frame window ?

How to access the handle of the frame window through out the application ?. I want to display an alert box, while I click the fifth inner child component of the Frame . I am using Dialog Class for the alert box, I have to pass the frame handle to the Dialog constructer, I am getting the handle of the frame by getParent().getParent()......getParent().. But can any one suggest any better solution.

If you application extends Frame or JFrame, you could simply refer to "this", or if you create a global or final Frame object that you use as your "top-level" component, you could refer to it this way. Additionally, if you're ever in a situation where you really need to go all the way to the top through n levels of components, I believe you could always do something like this...
// assume myContainer is the "child" component that you're on, and you want to find its top-level parent
Container c = myContainer;
while (c.getParent() != null) {
c = c.getParent();
}

Anybody knows how to bounce them off the edge of the frame ...

I want them to change position randomly and smothly and also bounce off the edge of the frame. i will be so happy if you can help me.

How do I set the frame size

I am Making a program for purchasing games, with the basic layout alsot done, except on problem. When the purchase button is pressed, a dialog shows up but nothing is seen until i resize it.

When I hit the minimize button on Firefox to use the side by side view with Excel in Windows 7, my Firefox window gets larger and won't give me an arrow in the corner to reduce the frame size.

I can't find a menu to resize my minimized window as it is actually larger than the normal window. The frame of firefox goes right off the screen and will not give me a corner arrow to drag it down to size. Normal window view is just fine. How do I correct this?

It is possible that the screen is too wide or too high and that the scroll bars fall off. 
Open the system menu via Alt+Space and see if you can resize that window. 
If that works then close Firefox to save that setting. 
See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Resizing_oversize_window
Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].
Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted. 
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf 
(caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)
Note: 
Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults. 
You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it. 
Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

How can I get the frame option that diffuses the edges of a picture in pages 5.2

I recently updated to Pages 5.2 and have discovered that my favorite and most used framing option is no longer a choice. How can I get the frame option that allowed you to diffuse the edges to soften a picture edges on 5.2?

That is called the vignette, and yes Apple has removed it from Pages 5 along with 100 other features.
Pages '08/'09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder so use that.
Be aware that Pages 5.2 is not only short of features it is also buggy and prone to leaving you with files that won't open.

//AdminMenu.java
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class AdminMenu extends JFrame{
private JLabel lblmenu;

JMenuItem exitItem = new JMenuItem( "Exit" );
exitItem.setMnemonic( 'x' );
exitItem.addActionListener(
new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent event )
System.exit( 0 );
} // end anonymous inner class
); // end call to addActionListener
fileMenu.add( exitItem );
// create menu bar and attach it to MenuTest window
JMenuBar bar = new JMenuBar();
setJMenuBar( bar );
bar.add( fileMenu );
setSize(300,250);
setLocation(350,200);
this.setResizable(true);
show();
//---------------------- Main -------------------------------
public static void main(String args[])
AdminMenu app = new AdminMenu();
app.setDefaultCloseOperation(
JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
Thanks for helping me

e.g. use a thread that invokes new Date() (every minute), format the Date with SimpleDateFormat and print the result String on a Label that you can put on your frame ...

Top and bottom margins to be inside the frame and form should less cluster

Hi All,
In my application we have created nearly 10 regions and for each region i have created sub regions with No templates. Here are the deatils below.
I need to display two regions side by side with borders, so what i have done is
1. Created a region as #Region Start with No template with Display point as "Page template body (1. items below region content) and Header and footer i have
given as <table border="1"><tr><td>
2. Followed by region as #What with Wizard region as "Page template body(1. items below region content) and nothing given under header and fotter.
3. Followed by reagion as #Region Middle with No template with Display point as "Page template body (1. items below region content) and Header and footer i
have as </td><td>
4. Followed by region as #where with Wizard region as "Page template body(1. items below region content) and nothing given under header and fotter.
5. Folowed by region as #Region End with No template with Display point as "Page template body (1. items below region content) and Header and footer i have
given as </td></tr><tr><td>
Simiallry followed by rest of regions by creating dummy regions and placing the <tr> and <td> in Header and Footer.
Now users are asking me to have insde the frame and form shoul dbe less cluster.
Can suggestiosn on this who we need to achieve.
Thanks,
Anoo..

'File' > 'Page Setup' is used to alter the page margins when you need to print the email. It is not used to create a Template email nor to change the overall theme used in the Thunderbird user interface.
To add a theme to the overall Thunderbird window, you can choose
* either a Windows theme via Control Panel > Personalization >Theme
* or download a theme Add-on, there is a huge range here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/themes/
such as : https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/balloons/?src=ss
If you are looking to create a Template email, then you open a new Write message, design the email, enter a Subject so that you can easily locate the email and click on 'File > Save as > Template or click on Save button and choose 'Template' from the options. then the email is saved in the Templates folder. To use, you click on Templates folder and double click on the email to open in a new Write message. then compose and send as normal. The original email will be saved in Templates folder for reuse.

How Do I Rotate Content, Not the Frame

I am in InDesign CS1.
I need to figure out how to affect the content of a placed image, not the surrounding frame. I know how to set the rotation angle of the selected object's frame:
set rotation angle of selection to 10
But for the life of me, I cannot understand how to leave the frame as it is and just rotate the content. I.E., normally, if I grab the direct selection tool and click an image (hovering over the image inside the frame turns to the hand tool), I can then manipulate the content without affecting the outside frame. But I want to do this with an AppleScript.
I also assume that if someone can open this door for me, it will then lead the way to being able to scale the content, without affecting the frame. But I cannot figure out the secret of "content" vs. "selection". Halp!
Thank you!

Your definitions are what I would expect, but for me, applying each version as one of these two separate scripts:
1)
tell application "InDesign CS"
activate
set rotation angle of selection to 10
end tell
2)
tell application "InDesign CS"
activate
set absolute rotation angle of selection to 10
end tell
Gives me the same result. The frame rotates and the content rotates with it.
Let me start over with my problem as that may help...
So let's say I have a frame and it has rotation 0˚. Inside the frame I have an object rotated to 5˚.
Applying either of those two scripts has the same result. The frame rotates to 10˚ and the content (when selected with the direct selection tool) now shows a rotation of 15˚.
But what I want is for the frame to stay at 0˚ and the content (when selected with the direct selection tool) to show a rotation of 15˚.
I am thinking this may be relates to the "Transform Content" and "Transformations Are Totals" preference settings. Both of which I have turned on. I know how to turn them on and off with an AppleScript, but it doesn't seem to be helping.

Let applet out without the frame of a html page?

Hi,
I want to run a java applet like this:
when someone logs into a web page, the applet contained in this web page
will come out just like a standalone application, rather than run in the frame
of this web page, how could i get it?
I appreciate any suggestion!
Thanks a lot
michael

public void init(){
YourClass application = new YourClass();
Where YourClass is like that:
import java.awt.*;
public class YourClass extends Frame{
getContentPane().show();
...

On minimizing application,the components of the frame become unordered
