Capture click event on dialog title bar

Hi,
I want to capture a mouse release (or click) event on the JDialog's title bar. Adding a mouse listener to the dialog itself does not work of course.
Is this possible?
thanks!
Greg

You would need to use a "decorated" dialog.
Then the title bar is actually a Swing component. So you can use the getComponent(...) method of the dialog to get the title bar and add your listener to it.

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

[JS - CS5] listen events on the title bar of a palette

I want to listen click on the title bar of a palette.
I use
myWin.addEventListener ("click",myFunction);
but it works only on the bounds area, not on the title bar.
Is it possible to listen events on the title bar?
thanks
Ivan

How to catch drag event in the title bar of a jframe

Hi
I want to catch the drag event in the title bar for jframe, because I have a few more window, dialogs, which I want to move along with my main window
Thanks

you can use a listener like tih one below...it works if you don't move to quickly.....
class SynchroMover extends ComponentAdapter{
private JFrame master;
private JFrame[]slaves;
private int currentX;
private int currentY;
public SynchroMover(JFrame master,JFrame[]slaves){
    this.master = master;
    this.slaves = slaves;
    currentX =(int) master.getLocation().getX();
    currentY =(int) master.getLocation().getY();
public void componentMoved(ComponentEvent e){
    int dx = (int)master.getLocation().getX() - currentX;
    int dy = (int)master.getLocation().getY() - currentY;
    System.out.println(dx+" "+dy);
    for(int i=0;i<slaves.length;i++)
      slaves.setLocation((int)(slaves[i].getLocation().getX()+dx),(int)(slaves[i].getLocation().getY()+dy));
currentX = (int)master.getLocation().getX();
currentY = (int)master.getLocation().getY();
the code isn't optimized...so you can probably do better

Cmd-click in finder on title bar opens new window - why?

This is a feature I used all the time previously, but since I've updated to 10.5.2 it always open a new window when I select a dir further back. Does anybody know how I can make it not open a new window, just navigate in the existing window?

..."cmd-click in finder on title bar opens new window"...
Holding down the cmd key while opening a folder in the "Finder" has caused the folder to open in a new window for quite some time. I can't recall what the behaviour was with respect to the Titlebar in earlier OS X versions, but if it has really changed in 10.5, perhaps it was to make it more consistent with the behaviour of folders in general.
Are you sure you weren't using ctrl-click in the past?

Why Do LV7 VIs Stop Executing When I Click on the Window Title Bar?

I am trying to run a deterministic VI (LV 7.0) which reads data from a DSP and displays it in a graph. The VI has to read the data within a certain time or the DSP overwrites the buffer. I find that the graph stops reading (for about .25 sec) when I click on its title bar (or that of any other VI), and I lose data. The graph is running in the Data Acquisition thread, under Time Critical Priority (the only VI in this thread and with this priority). I have tried a dual 2400 CPU (AMD) under WinXP Pro, and also a PIII-1000 single CPU under Win2000. Same result. I have also tried a bus mouse (USB and PS2) and a serial mouse (COM1) - same result. Under LabVIEWs Tools/Options, I have "Run With Multiple Threads"
checked. How can I ensure that the mouse (or keyboard, for that matter) does not stop my graph VI?

Try making the Call Library Function Node reentrant as well.
Attached is an example. Not a beautiful, but illustrated an experiment I did. With this experiment I have a delay in a loop putting the time the loop took on a queue. The other VI is graphing that time. When I click on the title bar of the graphing VI, it stops responding for a period of time, but the other loop keeps running uniterupted. I have no idea what a dll call would do.
Good luck...

Cannot double click an icon or title bar

i have just noticed since the last os update for snow leopard that when i double click the icon or the title bar nothing happens, whereas before i used to be able to either open a folder or an application, or minimize something with a double click. If anybody has ideas about what is going on, please write. Right now i can only open things up in secondary button mode, in the dock or the menu bar. thanks

Can anyone tell me how I can replace Sun's Java Icon?The way you were already told. Only if you aren't going to put the icon in your current working directory, don't write code that assumes the icon is in your current working directory.

Interrogation/help button on dialog title bar?

Check out the link in this thread:

This API is for frames, not dialogs, but maybe you could make it work for you somehow.

Help - How to Remove X on the Dialog Title Bar

I have been trying for a while to remove the X(Close) on the Jdialog title bar. Is this possible? Is there an alternative? I have a progress bar in the JDialog and don't want to user to X out....
appeciate the help.

Use setUndecorated(true) to remove the entire titlebar...
otherwise it is not possible to just hide the close button b/c it is provided by the OS's window manager. Try using a JWindow instead.

Double click title bar to minimize?

Hello, before I "upgrade" to iTunes 12, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me if double clicking on the iTunes title bar minimizes the iTunes window?
For some unknown reason, Apple eliminated this functionality in iTunes 11, even though this is the way every other application/window behaves under OS X and is an option in the Dock. Thanks much for replies.

iTunes 11 - isn't this a title bar?
It looks the same as (for instance) Activity Monitor. But with Activity Monitor (and every other app with this top bar look), double clicking on the bar minimimes the window. Not so for iTunes 11. So are you saying it just looks like a title bar, but isn't?

Double-click a title bar to won't open or hide in Mountain Lion

I can not get my windows to open or hide with double-clicking like I've been doing for years (new computer). I have the double-click a window's title bar to minimize selected in the dock, still not working. Please help, driving me nuts. I'm running Mountain Lion 10.8.5

The preference has been moved in Mountain Lion. It is now System Preferences>Dock>Double click a window's title bar to minimize

How to screencapture CONTENTS of a window, without title bar?

I've been trying to find a solution to doing a screen capture but NOT the window title bar, just the CONTENTS of the window. For example, in Photoshop, I only want the image IN the window, not the bits with the 3 coloured blobs in the upper left of all windows and the document title
All the references I've foiund talk about capturing the wndow, but no-one talks about the contents of the window.
Am I trying to invent a wheel here?
Any advice gratefully received.

Are you asking about screenshots in general? You have three choices: the entire Mac's screen, an entire window including the title bar, or a selection created by dragging a selection rectangle.
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11229
To take a screenshot for posting on this site hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse button. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field.
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

Add maximumsize icon to title bar in JDialog

My question is how to add a maximumsize icon to the title bar of JDialog, i want to create a dialog that when user double-click the JDialog's title bar or click the maximumsize icon in the JDialog's title bar the dialog can be displayed as maximum size. it just likes Frame.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Lupeng,
I can think of 2 approaches, firstly and probably the most easiest is to use a frame to mimic the behaviour of the dialog.
Secondly, implement your own L&F for dialogs by wrting your own RootPaneUI that uses your own version of TitlePane. The TitlePane class will take care of the buttons and mouse handling. Have a look at BasicRootPaneUI to get a better understanding of the implementation ;)
