Can I cut my GUI into "hotspots" using Java code?

I'm working on the GUI of my app. I learned how to do the GUI by having the frame, and dropping the necessarry components (i.e: buttons, text boxes, etc) onto the frame.
Well, my graphics-guy made me a nice looking skin for the application, and he already drew in the buttons, etc, so they look nice. Is it possible for me to "cut up" the graphic into 'hotspot' areas, sort of like you do with web pages, and to have the actionListener code from each of my buttons be 'attached' to that hotspot area on the graphic?

Don't know, whether it's possible to use "hotspots".
But what's about the possibility of invisible components placed over your graphic.
i.g.
JButton b = new JButton();
b.setBorder(null);              // no border
b.setContentAreaFilled(false); // invisible Background
                               // and so on.You can hide nearly any part of any component but its still usable.
(Add listeners, edit text areas ...)
Use your graphic as background of (invisible?) Frame, the rest you've already done.
Only a suggestion, i don't know whether there is a more professional solution.

  • How can we get requester's user id using java code

    Hi,
    How can we get requester's user id using java code?
    eg: If i had logged in as xelsysadm and request a resource for user uid101 on the userid field it should display uid101 and not xelsysadm.
    also,
    I have a resoure "A" which on revoking should also revoke resources B and C. How can it be done. Resource A, B, and C are 3 different resource objects.
    ==Thanks,
    doki

    Ok, so there is a way, but it's not available during submission. You can use the findRequests api. From the result set, get the "Requests.Consolidated Data Value" value. In this information, you will get an xml formatted data. It provides the list of users on the request on the left side after submission. After the request is completed, this value is available. Upon completion, you could get the request information, get this value, and parse the information for user ids.
    In the same adapter, use the following API:
    formIntf.setObjectFormData(objInstanceKey, formHash)
    The formHash is a hashtable containing the field name on your object form, and the values you wish to populate it with. You could create a textarea box on your object form and populate the userids for who the request is for.
    However, this makes absolutely 0 sense. When you get a request, the list of userids are listed right there on the request.

  • I'm running logic pro 8.0.2 on Leopard 10.5.8. I've recorded an evening of live music, the cut the recording into songs using one audio file folder. When working on an individual song, I can't access the sampler.  I get the message "nothing to display"

    I'm running logic pro 8.0.2 on Leopard 10.5.8. I've recorded an evening of live music, then cut the recording into songs using one audio file folder ad multiple song files. When working on an individual song, I can't access the sampler.  I get the message "nothing to display" or "no region or audio file selected"  After much research on the web, I believe this is a permanent bug.  Does anyone have a good work-around for this type of work.  We record live 16T band rehearsals constantly and would love to be able to break individual songs out of the large file and be able to use the sampler.  Thanks in advance for your ideas!  Cheers.

    Another thing - if I copy one of the tracks to another track, then the sample editor works on the copied track.  I don't want to have to copy 16 tracks to new tracks to be able to use the sample editor on a project.  Thanks again.

  • How can i generate BARCODE Images using JAVA Code

    Hello ,
    My requirement is to generate BarCode Images to Print using JAVA Code.
    User will give only
    1) String.as Input Parameter and
    2) Type of Encoding you want to apply on to the String.
    outPut : code should generate Bar Code Images as per the requirements.
    can any one help me out with jars ????? or any link which can provide me start.

    1) I have requriement like generate doc file with
    more than one barcode image on that document.???
    So?
    If your chosen "doc file" format supports inclusion of multiple images there's no problem.
    If it doesn't, choose another format.
    2) I am able to generate .doc file but in which
    format i should open that doc file.????
    The same format you used to create it.
    3) Main thing is how can i put more than one barcode
    image on that doc file????
    That would depend on the file format and the API used to create it.
    is any one faced the same problem or gone through
    same requirement.
    Almost certainly. And they solved it too, given the document I'm looking at right now which is an e-ticket for an airline that has many barcodes and other generated images on it.
    So keep on trying, grasshopper, and you may find enlightenment.

  • In Struts is it possible to use java code  in jsp?

    in Struts Tag Program in jsp pages is it efficient to use java code? Please explain?

    No issues.. you can use java code... in jsp struts
    based framework..
    SJYou can use Java code as scriptlets in any JSP, but that doesn't mean there are no issues.
    I would say it's a bad idea for the following reasons:
    (1) Scriptlet code is difficult to read when mingled with HTML
    (2) You can't unit test scriptlet code
    (3) It increases the chance that business logic will leak into pages where it doesn't belong.
    Better to use a well-proven tag library like JSTL or the Struts taglibs and keep all scriptlets out of your JSPs.

  • How to write excel file (.xlsx) using file adapter without using java code

    Hi All,
    In soa suite 11g Is there any ways to write the data to the excel ( xlsx ) file using fileadapter and not using java code..Thanks in Advance

    Hi Siva,
    I don't think there is any way to write .xls file directly. You'll have to use some Java API (iText etc.) to create an .xls file. However, you can write .csv file that can be easily converted into .xls at the target end. In MS, it opens as Excel file if delimiter is comma *,*.
