Add Jcombo in Task Bar.

Hi,
Can anyone tell me how to add JComboBox or JTextField in Windows Taskbar
for Desktop Search.
Thanks
Nicky

Unless I am very much mistaken (which is not at all uncommon) there's not (at least not an easy way) way to do what you're asking. Reason being that to put something into the Windows task bar requires that you be able to get hold of the Windows hooks that make it a task bar application, and those don't exist in Java.
I can tell you where in the Swing code you'd have to get hold of it though, and that would be in the JFrame's window listener for being iconified. But I don't know of a way to put it into the TaskBar the way you're describing. What you're asking for is a platform (very platform) specific thing that Sun understandably tries to stay away from.
PS.

  • How can i add icloud shortcut to task bar

    Is there a way to add an iCloud shortcut to my laptop's task bar?

    Sure. There is at least one non-Apple program that does what you describe, but it modifies OS X and as such I am not willing to recommend it. If you want to do that anyway, search for a program called "Mail Unread Menu", but beware that software not obtained from the Mac App Store involves a degree of risk due that only you can decide to accept.
    Don't install anything without knowing in advance how to uninstall it. To learn how to use Time Machine read Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac - Apple Support.
    Never obtain or install any program from a source other than one specifically authorized by the program's developer. This precaution has become more important as Apple's popularity has grown in recent years. It's a trivial matter for anyone to effectively hijack a program distributed through the Internet, surreptitiously incorporate malicious software, and subsequently host it on sites not authorized by that program's developer. Those sites generally appear more prominently in a web search than legitimate ones because they also include revenue-producing advertisements that benefit the search engine you choose to use.
    The Mail icon in the Dock already does exactly what you describe, but it's in the Dock. It is built in. Seems like a minor distinction to me, but I realize everyone's needs are different. If you think it can be improved upon tell Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html.

    Only JFrames in the taskbar. If you are using 1.4, you can use a JFrame and use setUndecorated(). It looks a lot like a JWindow.

  • Ever since the latest update, my task bar (if it's called that - it's the one with "file,edit,view, etc") will "grey out" and I won't be able to type into any websites I visit. Only way to fix:either restart Firefox or reduce the window and open it again.

  • How do I get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen (right above the task bar) WITHOUT Tab Mix Plus?

    ''locking - please stick with your original thread about this problem - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/934590''
    I like having the tab bar at the bottom of the screen; I use the task bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between programs, so I want the the tab bar AT THE BOTTOM to switch between web pages. The only way I've found to get the tab bar at the bottom of the screen is the extension Tab Mix Plus. I used it for a long time, and it worked great.
    Unfortunately, when I recently updated to Firefox 14.0.1, I encountered an error: I could no longer middle-click on a link to open it in a new tab (which I do ALL the time). After some troubleshooting, I found that it was being caused by some incompatibility between Firefox 14.0.1 and Tab Mix Plus; upon removing Tab Mix Plus, my middle-clicking was back to normal.
    But without Tab Mix Plus, I'm back to having the tab bar at the top of the screen. I've searched and searched, and I can't find anything besides Tab Mix Plus that will let me put the tab bar at the bottom of the screen. I've found tons of stuff about the option "tabs on top", but that has to do with putting the tab bar above/below the navigation bar--it's still at the top of the SCREEN either way.
    What can I do?

    Reset the pref <b>layout.scrollbar.side</b> to '0' or set to '2' to place the scroll bar at the default right side.

  • I have lost the task bar/start menu, how do I get them back? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling without success, the other user on my computer does not have this problem.

    Yesterday, I went to the site for levno computers, using my web access for my work email. I opened the page to view the outlet items and was never able to get back out of it. Finally used ctrl,alt,delete and ended the task. After that the this is what my task bar looks like, I cannot resize or exit using tabs at the top or bottom they are not showing, nor is start showing in the lower left hand corner where I like it. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling that did not help.
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == July 9, 2010

    Hello Sher.
    If you're talking about the menu bar, press ALT or F10 in your keyboard to make the Menu Bar temporarily visible. If you want it to be permanently visible, go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'', or right-click the Navigation Toolbar (the Reload button, for example) and select ''Menu Bar''.
    If this doesn't help, right-click the navigation toolbar, select ''Customize...'' and click ''Restore Default Set''. If it doesn't appear right away, try pressing ALT or F10. You can go into ''View > Toolbars > Menu Bar'' to make it permanently visible, or right-click the Navigation Toolbar and select ''Menu Bar''.
    If none of this helps, you may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Try disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal.

  • Firefox loads, icon is on task bar but when clicked the graphics slide off to the right but don't fill the screen & when clicked again, falls back into the icon

    Firefox, Thunderbird & Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I exited the game & clicked the icon to return Firefox to full screen, I could see the image flash off to the right side of my monitor screen and disappear. When I again clicked on the icon in the task bar, the reverse happened- the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse pointer over the icon, the open screens show up with the red X to close but the same thing happens when I click on that box. The other two programs that were open while the game was active are working fine, only Firefox has been affected. I cannot open the program to access any of the menu items as I cannot get the screen image on the monitor. I did uninstall the program and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run it. I did chose to save my settings so if something has been changed there then that might be the problem.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • Task bar "Refreshes"

    Hi Everyone,
    Brand new ThinkStation E32 SFF PC running Windows 8.1 x64 (Updated from factory 8 image).
    Every so often, and it appears to be random, the task bar "refreshes". All the icons will disappear, as will the content of the page; almost as if you unplugged your monitor and it was adjusting.
    Updated BIOS and video card driver, still same issue.
    Anyone else having this problem/any suggestions?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    It's likely some 3rd Party APP that got broken by the recent QT or Security update.
    Stuffit AVR has been a big one, if you have that use the Pref Pane to turn it off, but others have been implicated too. Check System Preferences for a Stuffit Pref Pane and disable AVR.
    One way to test is to Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, Test for action in Safe Mode...
    Reboot, test again.
    If it only does it in Regular Boot, then it is some 3rd party add-on, Check System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items window to see if it or something relevant is listed.
    Check the System Preferences>Other Row, for 3rd party Pref Panes.
    Also look in these if they exist, some are invisible...

    PLEASE HELP!!!

    What I did was to provide the Notifier stage with an owner. (This is only a solution if your application has a single stage.)
    1.  In method initGraphics() remove the line: stage.show();
    2.  Create the following method in Notifier:
    public static void setStageOwner( Stage stageRef )
         INSTANCE.stage.initOwner( stageRef );
    3.  In method showPopup( Notification ) add the following line before:  POPUP.show( stage );
    if ( ! stage.isShowing() )  stage.show();
    else  stage.toFront();
    4. When you setup your application's stage call:
    Notifier.setStageOwner( yourAppsStage );

  • Please show me how to get rid of yahoo search COMPLETELY! I prefer google to search in the center search bar like I used to have even though it is on the search task bar

    After adding a program yahoo has hijacked the search bar on the center start screen. I still have google in the task bar but would like it to also search on the main search box like it used to. I have looked for hours trying to find a fix but will wait for your response before changing to google chrome, as I am fond of firefox and it's features. I have witnessed many others with the same feeling and wish for the freedom to choose their default browser away from yahoo. It is a step in reverse to not be able to change it !!!

  • Why does the 'Downloads' gives me a full page which I can not just minimize to the task bar.

    I'm running Firefox 34.05 as opposed to what the data will say (34.0)
    Lately, when I press the 'Downloads' in Tools, I get a full page as if it is a new tab. I use to have a small block that I could minimize to the task bar. Is there something I can do to restore it to it former glorious self?
    As a secondary question which seemed to happen at the same time comes this question. now when I download a clip it does not appear in the Download (now) page. It still downloads but I can not view it download, stop the download or even go to where it was downloaded. Any help would be appreciated.

    Normally Tools > Downloads or Ctrl+j launches the Library dialog and displays the Downloads section (the Library dialog also shows History and Bookmarks). Regarding the size of the window, it could be that you used the dialog to view history or bookmarks and enlarged it. Firefox doesn't remember the size separately for the 3 different lists.
    On the second point, since you have a few different downloaders, I'm not sure which one is malfunctioning, or maybe there's a conflict between them. You might check their pages on the Add-ons site to see if reviews or support information reports the same issue and mentions any workarounds.

  • Magically Changing Icons on M$ Task Bar

    Hi,
    In Windows XP (Windows NT), when you open multiple windows of a program, the programs become inconisized and grouped together under one menu icon with a name. For instance, opening Windows Explorer multiple times creates a menu on the task bar that displays the Windows Explorer Icon, the number of windows open, and the title of the program--Windows Explorer.
    However, when I run my Java programs multiple times (or make many frames within a program) and iconisized them, they appear on the task bar as a menu with a little white window icon with a blue title, the number of windows (frames) open, and "java" or "javaw" beside it.
    I know how to add icons to frames that is not the problem. What I don't know is how to keep my icon and application name on the task bar when windows (frames) or applications become grouped.
    Any helpful information would be greatly appreciated. Spent 4 hours looking all over Sun's site, trying to find an answer. I've even tried to download some open source programs and tried to disect them to find the code. Sample code would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
