Adding a mouseListener to the tabs in a tabbedPane.

What I would like is a listener that listens to mouse clicks on the tabs in a tabbed pane.
How would I go about creating this? The changeListener will not work for my purpose.

The changeListener will not work for my purposeWhy? What is your purpose?
If its related to you other question, then of course a changelistener will work.

  • JTabbedPane: Components before and after the tabs themselves.

    I want to make Google Chrome..!
    Well, really, I want to have GUI stuff up in the title pane. In particular, I want the tabs of a TabbedPane up there.
    I've concluded that the easiest way to accomplish this (hopefully in a somewhat LaF-neutral way) is to set the frame to be undecorated, and instead implement my own frame with handling and all. I'd set a JFrame undecorated, and put a JTabbedPane over the entire thing, sticking the application icon to the left of the tabs, and the minimize, maximize, close buttons to the far right of the tabs themselves.
    If anyone have any other suggestions to this initial problem, I would seriously appreciate to hear about them.
    But given the above solution: How would I go about getting a component to the left of the tabs, and some other components to the right of the tabs, of a JTabbedPane? A LaF-neutral solution would be very much appreciated - but I have faint hopes here, so pointers for how to accomplish this using LaF-tricks will be appreciated too.
    I've seen that laf-widget from kirill, https://laf-widget.dev.java.net/, does something like it (the magnifying-glass icon to the left of the tabs) for several LaFs. However, I must admit that I'm not yet well enough versed to understand how he does it - and also it seems like a somewhat complicated process, whereby one "physically" change the LaF in question (bytecode manipulates it), injecting the laf-widget stuff (and I still don't know how the JTabbedPane or TabbedPaneUI is modulated to inject that icon).
    Any help or pointers will be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Endre.

    Could you elaborate slightly on that? I don't get your "what's left" idea..?
    I think the JTabbedPane should have this functionality built-in. It is a truly obvious need, to the extent that it has had to be solved several times by others.
    From an answer to this problem on StackOverflow: The JideTabbedPane from the Jide open source parts have an setTabLeadingComponent. However, Jide doesn't manage to follow the active LaF (the installs its own UI delegate), so I don't instantly want to jump on it.

  • How to change the Tab name for a custom field added in IC Winclient

    I have successfully added a field using eewb and it is appearing on my transaction in CIC0 but it is on a tab that says Customer Fields.  In EEWB a BADI called ZEEW_CUSTOMER_H01 was generated and it has a methods called  CRM_CUSTOMER_H_SET_TITLE.  It indicates you should be able to use this to rename the tab but the method is empty.  Anyone have an example of the code you pass in to rename the tab screen.  Thanks, Lisa

    >>and how will it effect in the report?
    You wouldn't see any direct effect on the Report.. But if you transport the report to QA & leave the Message class in Dev, it might result in syntax issues & you will not be able to execute the report. Just ensure that both of them get transported to QA & you will be fine.

  • Submited parameters are added to the tab link

    Hello
    I' have ULR-Portlets on my Tab at a portalpage.
    When I do some work on one portlet (submit data), then the data will be added to the links to other tabs.
    Tab-Link-Example:

    When I change the tab, the new tab processes the data application goes wrong.
    What can I do (configuration in the protal?) that the links on the tabs stays the same?

  • When I add a bookmark, I get hundreds of multiple entries for the same bookmark in the recently added bookmark folder and bookmark tab. Fix?

    Adding a bookmark results in 100's of entries for that bookmark on the bookmark tab and in the recently added bookmark folder. The only way to remove them is to click and delete each separate entry? Any idea of what's going on or how to fix it? Thanks.

    Note that it is always best to disconnect from Sync while performing maintenance to the places.sqlite file or otherwise do repairing efforts from within Firefox.

  • Imported songs show in "recently added" but not in  the general "music" tab

    I imported two Amy Winehouse albums to iTunes, adding to one of her albums I already had. When I order my list in iTunes by "artist", I only see one Amy Winehouse album, which I added long ago. The only way I can see the new albums I imported is to look under "recently added". If I look in the iTunes folder, under music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Music/Amy Winehouse all 3 albums appear.
    How do I get the new albums to appear in the general "music" tab without having to look in "recently added"? Thanks...  chas

  • Achieve the tab order for dynamically added section

    Hi friends,

    How to achieve the tab order for dynamically added sections?
    Could you Plaese suggest me in this.
    Thanks,
    Susila S

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Ya. I'm adding rows in a table dynamically which is grouped in a subform which is flowable and the buttons are placed in the same subform. At the end of the row I'm having the hidden fields.
    So what I want is without focusing the tab on hidden field I want to traverse the first field of the next dynamic row. For that I have used the access property as protected on hidden field, but its not working properly.
    Please help me on this ASAP.

    Hey -
    I need to do the EXACT same thing, but have no idea how. Has anyone out there done this?
    My situation is a tad different..this is a new Mac (and I'm a brand new Mac user). Tons of querks occur under my original account (videos won't run, Safari won't support certain plug-ins). I spent 6 hours on the phone w/ 4 different Apple Reps and nobody could fix it. A rep finally looked at my MacBook Pro in person today. He created a new account just to see if that would work and under that new account, everything works perfectly fine (no querks, can view video). He tried switching a million settings in my original account to no avail.
    He said to create a new account (as he did) and move my files over to the new account and then go back to the original and delete it. How do you do this?! I can't figure it out! I've got a new account created, but of course it just has the default folders in it w/ the little red icons next to them! Thanks in advance!

  • In FF5.0 this Tab Groups feature doesn't work: "Once you've created your first group, the Tab Group button will be added to the right end of the tab strip to give you a one-click way to get back to your groups."

    The sentence in quotes in my question is from the instructions under "What are Tab Groups?" (Redirected from "What is Panorama?")

    Thank you cor-el. I had tried that but the icon wouldn't go on the tab bar. Now it will.
    All this may be me, but I still suspect FF5. For WHY did it not happen automatically, as the help page indicates?
    Sorry, only just got back to click Solved, as the icon is now where it's supposed to be. The icon I got from the Customization window before was useless on my cluttered toolbar, and I thought the only way to get it to appear on the tab bar as advertised was to remove it completely and see if it appeared in the right place after a reboot or something. I think we're probably still at the stage where we have to settle for ad-hoc fixes of the mercurial behaviour of new versions.

  • How do I get rid of the spinner that appears on the left side on the tabs?

    (Firefox 25.0.1, Windows 8)
    There's a little green spinner that appears to the left of "Connecting..." on the tabs while loading a page. Any way to get rid of it? It's been quite annoying me for a while.

    You can manually create/edit the userChrome.css file. Here's how.
    (1) Find (or create) the chrome folder. This is a folder in your currently active Firefox settings folder, also known as your Firefox profile folder.
    * Open the your profile folder using: Help > Troubleshooting Information
    ** Windows: Click the "Show Folder" button
    ** Mac: Click the "Show in Finder" button
    * Check for a chrome folder.
    ** If it exists: double-click it to open it.
    ** If it does not exist: create a chrome folder, then double-click it to open it.
    (2) Create or Edit a userChrome.css file by adding your style rule.
    * Check for a userChrome.css file in the chrome folder.
    ** If it exists: open it in a text editor. Check that it has this first line:<br><br>@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);<br><br>Then add the following lines and save the file:<br><br>.tab-throbber { display: none !important }<br> &nbsp;
    ** If it does not exist: create a new text file named userChrome.css. (In Windows, right-click and choose New > Text Document and change the name to userChrome.css.) Then see the previous step for what to place in the file.
    The rule change should take effect the next time you start Firefox.
    Note: I find it easier to use the Stylish extension, but if you don't want yet another extension, then userChrome.css makes the most sense.

    Hey there, from within iWeb simpl click on the page(s) one at a time (in the left column). Then click the inspector button (bottom right) to open the inspector menus. At the top of the inspector there are 9 icons. The second one from the left is what you need.
    When you click that you will see to options. 1. "INCLUDE PAGE IN NAVIGATION MENU" and 2. "DISPLAY NAVIGATION MENU" If you uncheck the "DISPLAY NAVIGATION MENU" it will be removed from the current page. Then continue the process for your other pages as well. Hope this helps and Merry Christmas

    You mentioned making the text the same as the background...did you try that yet? I mis-understood your first question so my bad. What I have done with templates that dont let you delete the title is to shrink the font to 1 and match the text with the background color like you spoke of.

    i think you did understand it correctly originally. the text box has no words in it, i just deleted them, so a blank text box is still there and can not be deleted. i am not sure if that is why the tab is still there. the tab runs along the top of the website. if you don't know what i mean, maybe i could send you a page to look at? thanks a lot for your help.

    I took a look at the gazette template and if I understand what you are talking about, I think you have changed the page background to another color or another image and the top still has the beige with the 2 little flower scroll. And that is what you want to remove. If I am correct in my assumption that is a lot more involved as you would have to find the graphic in the package and modify it.
    can you give a few more details or post your site may be someone also more knoledgeable will look at it.

  • My browser takes minutes to open then when the tab is fully loaded it will start saying "Connecting" and slow down or freeze.

    When I open my browser, it takes 3-5 minutes to fully open. When I get to a website, randomly the tab will say 'Connecting' and slow down and take 10-15 minutes to function or freeze completely. This almost always happens on sites that require Flash Player use. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my Flash several times. I've added memory, as someone suggested it was a memory issue. It's so frustrating, please help!

    A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

    This part of tabbed pane is not customizable as it lies in the ComponentUI(TabbedpaneUI) portion of the tabbedpane.
    But I can point out the place u can change to bring the desired feature into effect.
    U can find an Inner class called ScrollableTabSupport
    Look for the methods createButtons where u can create extra buttons and add to the tabbed pane.
    The Inner class also implements actionListener where u can implement the action for the button u added.
    By this method U have to use your own extended TabbedPaneUI which u cant escape from.
    Hope this will help u.
