Canvas, paint(), and FlowLayout/BoxLayout

Has anyone encountered an error of paint() not being called when placed in a Container with a FlowLayout or a BoxLayout? This has been a recurring issue for me.

Anyone?

Native Canvas Painting and Refresh

Hi,
I have a project where I get live video from a firewire camera, and paint it to an awt Canvas natively using JNI. I need additional items painted on the canvas (on top of the video), like a pair of crosshairs and rulers to measure certain widths, etc. The software tracks an object moving across the screen, so the crosshairs need to be moved around and refreshed often.
I am getting a strange problem - the natively painted video is working just fine, but the painted objects are not refreshing properly. For example, instead of getting a crosshair that moves around the screen, I get a trail of crosshairs. And underneath the crosshairs, the video is refreshing just fine. What's going on? I'm using libXv, an X-windows extension to paint YUV4:2:2 camera buffers directly to the screen.
Here are relevant class snippets:
public class NativeCanvas extends Canvas{
    public void update(Graphics g)                 <-- overridden to eliminate flicker
        paint(g);
    public native void paint(Graphics g);         <-- here's the native video drawing function
public class CanvasWithOverlays extends NativeCanvas
    public void paint(Graphics g)
           super.paint();
           Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
           //(paint crosshairs, etc)
} Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks very much!

Hi,
I'm not sure how the crosshairs can be out of sync with the video stream - the canvas paint routines paint the video frame natively, and then paint the crosshairs. It's all sequential -
super.paint();    // goes into a native function XvPutImage that quickly blits the frame on screen
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
//(paint crosshairs, etc) This should work properly with the Event Queue, to the best of my knowledge. I schedule a TimerTask that continually calls the repaint() method to refresh the video:
public class LiveVideoPainter extends TimerTask
    static Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(LiveVideoPainter.class.getName());
    NativeCanvas nc;
    VideoDataSource vs;
    public LiveVideoPainter(NativeCanvas nc, VideoDataSource vs)
        if(nc == null) {
            logger.error("The Native Canvas is null!");
            return;
        if(vs == null) {
            logger.error("The Video Data Source is null!");
            return;
        this.nc = nc;
        this.vs = vs;
    public void run()
        vs.getFrame(nc.buffer);
        nc.repaint();
} I actually had this same problem when designing this application with C++ using the Qt windowing toolkit a year ago. Basically, if I called XvPutimage, and then called regular X drawing routines like XDrawLine etc in a loop, it would draw successfully, but never refresh properly:
while(true)
get_decompressed_frame(buf);
xv_image=XvCreateImage(display,info[0].base_id, XV_UYVY, (char*)buf, 1024, 768);
XvPutImage(display, info[0].base_id, window, gc, xv_image,
                   0,0,1024,768,
                   0,0, 1024,768);
if(crossHairDisplayed)
// Draw Horizontal CrossHair
            XDrawLine(display, window, gc,
                      0,   (int)(DataSource::pixPerMicron*DataSource :: crossY + DataSource::zcenY),
                      1024,(int)(DataSource::pixPerMicron*DataSource :: crossY + DataSource::zcenY));
            // Draw Vertical CrossHair
            XDrawLine(display, window, gc,
                      (int)(DataSource::pixPerMicron*DataSource :: crossX + DataSource::zcenX), 0,
                      (int)(DataSource::pixPerMicron*DataSource :: crossX + DataSource::zcenX) , 768);
}In this code bit, the crosshairs should move when the DataSource object changes member variables, line CrossX. But, the old crosshairs would not go away until the window was moved or resized. I'd get two crosshairs on the screen. I had to use a hack from the xwindows utility xrefresh everytime the crosshairs changed. It essentially simulated an x-window that opened over the Qt window, and then immediately closed. This worked well, but I thought I'd be free of that hack when I moved to java and JNI. Isn't this bizarre? Why would the window hold on to the old crosshair even when the varialbes change and there isn't any code that repaints it there after the video frame gets blitted?
hack adapted from xrefresh.c:
      if(newCrossHair)
                          Visual visual;
                  XSetWindowAttributes xswa;
                  Display *dpy;
                  unsigned long mask = 0;
                  int screen;
                  Window win;
                  if ((dpy = XOpenDisplay(NULL)) == NULL) {
                    fprintf (stderr, "unable to open display\n");
                    return;
                  screen = DefaultScreen (dpy);
                  xswa.background_pixmap = ParentRelative;
                  mask |= CWBackPixmap;
                  xswa.override_redirect = True;
                  xswa.backing_store = NotUseful;
                  xswa.save_under = False;
                  mask |= (CWOverrideRedirect | CWBackingStore | CWSaveUnder);
                  visual.visualid = CopyFromParent;
                  win = XCreateWindow(dpy, DefaultRootWindow(dpy), 400, 600, 1, 1,
                                      0, DefaultDepth(dpy, screen), InputOutput, &visual, mask, &xswa);
                  XMapWindow (dpy, win);
                  /* the following will free the color that we might have allocateded */
                  XCloseDisplay (dpy);
                  newCrossHair = false;
      } Any ideas? There's probably just some type of refresh call I need to use.

Non-modal JDialog is not painted and blocks the GUI

I have developed a GUI that's basically a JFrame with a JDesktopPane.
The user can, via a menu item, pop up a JDialog that contains some JLists and then select some value from it. Once he/she has done the selection and clicks on OK, the dialog disappears (data processing is then done in the main GUI) and comes back once a specific event has happened. The user then selects other data and so on, until he/she clicks on Cancel, which definitely disposes of the JDialog.
The graphics of the JDialog are build in the class constructor, which does a pack() but does not make the dialog visible yet. The dialog appears only when doSelection() is called.
     /** Called the first time when user selects the menu item, and then
     when a specific event has happened. */
     public Data[] doSelection() {
          dialog.setVisible(true);
          // ... Code that reacts to user's input. Basically, the ActionListener
          // added to the buttons retrieves the user's selection and calls
          // dialog.setVisible(false) if OK is clicked, or calls dialog.dispose()
          // if Cancel is clicked.
     }Now, everything works fine if the JDialog is modal, but if I make it non-modal only the window decorations of the JDialog are painted, and the control doesn't return to the main GUI. Calling doLayout() or repaint() on the doSelection() has no effect. How can this be fixed?
I hope I have been able to explain the problem satisfactorily, I could not create a suitable SSCCEE to show you. Thanks in advance for any hint.

Ok, I've taken some time to think about this problem and I've modified the code a bit.
Now the dialog shows itself and is responsive (i.e. its JLists can be operated), but the Ok button does not close the dialog as I'd want. I believe that I'm messing up things about threading, and the operations in actionPerformed() should be carried out in another thread, if possible.
Thanks in advance for any hint / suggestion / comment / insult.
     private Data[] selection;
     /** Constructor */
     public MyDialog() {
          // ... Here is the code that builds the dialog...
          dialog.setModal(false);
          dialog.pack();
          // Note that the dialog is not visible yet
     public Data[] doSelection() {
          operatorAnswer = NONE_YET;
          dialog.setVisible(true);
          while (operatorAnswer == NONE_YET) {
               try {
                    wait();
               } catch (InterruptedException e) { }
          return (operatorAnswer == OK ? selection : null);
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
          if (okButton.equals(evt.getSource())) {
               operatorAnswer = OK;
               retrieveSelection();
               dialog.setVisible(false);
          else if (cancelButton.equals(evt.getSource())) {
               operatorAnswer = CANCEL;
               dialog.dispose();
     private void retrieveSelection() {
          // ... Here is the code that retrieves selected data from the dialog's JLists
          // and stores it in the "selection" private array...
          notifyAll();

How can I export an image from Illustrator same canvas size and custom resolution?

Hey all. i am using Adobe Illustrator CS5 for creating images for iPhone app icons the size of image 374 px 374 px and 264 ppi. i created an image same size and ppi .the problem after export the image file size changing to 1371px x 1371px and 264 ppi pixel dimension.How can I export same canvas size and same resolution file from illustrator

10111980,
If you just forget about PPI and use Save for Web, you will get the 374 x 374 pixel size.
The 1371 x 1371 pixels is because you somehow increase the resolution by 264/72.
You should never mix pixel by pixel sizes and PPI.
The 374 x 374 pixels is the actual image size. At 264 PPI that will be about 1.417 inches. At 72 PPI that will be about 5.194 inches.

hi,
ABAP Query is an ABAP Workbench tool that enables users without knowledge of the ABAP programming language to define and execute their own reports.
In ABAP Query, you enter texts and select fields and options to determine the structure of the reports. Fields are selected from functional areas and can be assigned a sequence by numbering.

whereas the Report Painter enables you to report on data from various applications. It uses a graphical report structure that forms the basis for the report definition. When defining the report, you work with a structure that corresponds to the final structure of the report when the report data is output.

Hi
Report Painter is mainly used by CO functional consultants for generating reports using variables, Key fugures and sets. This is a SAP standard functionality.
ABAB Queries / Report queries are created by Abapers and Functional consultants , this is mainly to join two or more tables run a query on the available data in the table and get the reports
ABAP program are complete program which are the coding language of SAP, where a program can be created for a new functionality which is not available in SAP . However the data required for this program has to available in SAP.

Increasing canvas size and re-clipping (intentionally)

Hi,
So I bolluxed up a little bit while creating my first full-bleed print piece. I used Ps to edit the image, Ai to add some stuff, and ignored Id completely for the printer. Now I have a perfect 8.5 x 11 image that I want to print all the way to the edges without scaling; I left white bleeds 1.8" but apparently that won't suffice.
I'm trying to go back into photoshop and increase the canvas size (8.75 x 11.25 to include bleeds), and with it, extend the image that was originally clipped when I trimmed the document from a vertical picture (12 x 16 or whatever) to fit the standard letter paper size. When I do that, I get only white areas around the canvas.
Can anyone provide a solution to create full-color bleeds the way they should have been done originally? I have tried changing the canvas size and re-placing another layer of the image behind the existing one (with the hopes that it would clip automatically), but it didn't work. At this point, should I worry about bringing anything into InDesign?
Thanks,
- boda

There is a way to do this; unfortunately, it's not an
automatic feature
like in Photoshop. The approach you'll need to take is to
update the
document dimensions (basically, the canvas size) as desired,
then use the
Edit Multiple Frames button on the lower left of the Timeline
panel to
manually move all assets on the main timeline. To do this,
you'll have to
make sure all layers are unlocked. To do this quickly, click
the
Lock/Unlock All Layers button at the top, between the eye and
the square
buttons, until you see that all locks have been removed (one
or two clicks
will do it). In the Modify Onion Markers button next to the
Edit Multiple
Frames button, choose Onion All. Select Edit > Select All,
then use the
arrow buttons to move your assets.

Canvas children and mouseOver

Simply put, I have a repeating canvas that contains buttons,
an image, and a text field. When the user rolls their mouseOver the
canvas, a child canvas becomes visible with buttons inside of it.
Works great when you make sure that the mouse stays only over true
canvas area and not over a child inside of the canvas. If it falls
over a child, it fires the mouseOut and the buttons become
invisible. Essentially, you can't click on the buttons because they
are a child and the mouseOut goes off, making them invisible! How
can I keep the mouseOver alive, even over a child?
Thanks!

check the parent of the event "target", not the parent of the
event.
In Flex, events can possibly participate in three phases:
1) cascading phase as the event goes from the top of the
display list through all parents of the control that dispatched the
event.
2) targeting phase, as the event goes through the target, the
control that dispatched the event.
3) bubbling phase as the event goes back up the display list
through parents of the control that dispatched the event.
- not all events bubble
- you may need to add an event listener twice, and have the
arg to addEventListener for bubbling to true and then false if you
want to listen during cascading and bubbling phases.
Now you are probably confused, so ignore some of what I said,
and concentrate on listening to mouseOver events in the Cnavas, and
then when the event handler is called, examine the target and
possibly currentTarget properties of the event object to see if it
is the child of the Canvas, and then act as appropriate.
