Default button in BOV should always be #1

I have a number of Tracks with button overlay in a subtitle stream and Button Highlight activated (cyan/yellow marker).
The buttons are used to change audio stream during playback.
From a menu with 6 buttons I select a Track:
Button 1 = Track 1
Button 2 = Track 2
and so on.
What happens when I play the Track(s) is this:
Track 1 > Button 1 selected
Track 2 > Button 2 selected
Track 3 > Button 3 selected
etc.
Is it possible to always select button #1 when starting to play a Track, no matter which menu button was used?
As it is now, the user gets confused, since the Track is setup to play audio stream 1 in a pre-script (and this works fine).
TIA

Problem solved. Double-click on the subtitle in the Track and set the Default button in the Button tab in the PI.

Default buttons not defaulting

Hello. I am on the tail end of a DVD project and just begain encountering some unusual behavior with certain menus. This is a multiple-menu, multiple-video clips promotional DVD.
Up to last week, the DVD has been working as expected in the simulator, in DVD Player (from the Video_TS folder and from a formatted disc), and in several set top players. Yesterday, though, in DVD Player from a formatted disc, the menus appear with no buttons visibly defaulted. The menu still behaves, though, as if the default button was selected (ie., if pressing "enter" activates the default button, and pressing an arrow button sends the selected state in the designated direction.) Each video asset returns to its menu with another default button, and these behave in the same way.
I have already double-checked the connections between the buttons, menus, and videos, and they are set the way they have always been.
- Can the preferences in DVDSP get corrupted (like they can in FCP)?
- Can the DVDSP porject file become "bloated" or corrupted from going through too many revisions? If so, is there an easy way to put the current project into a new file?
I expect that some people that view this disc will do so on a Mac, and I would like to clear this up if it is possible. Any ideas?
Thank you!

Aaron:
I would try deleting all PAR and MPEG folders that DVDSP created during your authoring (inside the folders where your source files live) and make a clean build without reusing any of the previous VIDEO_TS folders. Probably some file is corrupted. If you want a FCP analogy, is like deleting your render files!
Trashing preferences is a common preocedure . . . but like in FCP, ussually don't resolve problems. But it's like an aspirin, it will don't hurt your system. You can keep a copy of the pref file to restore in case you need.
You could repair permissions and restart . . . just to be sure everything is cleaned in your system.

Probably with the specific experience in your problem psot something in the meantime!

Changing default button programmatically

I have a set of 3 buttons on a form, and one is designated as the default button. When it is selected, I would like a different button to become the default, but I can't find a reference to a suitable property in the set_item_property built-in.
The question is simple, "How do I do this?"
TIA,
Mark.

and always all of the button have to be enabled?
otherwise (i had this situation) you can
set all the 3 button as default but only
one enabled and when the user click on the
default button set the other button enabled
and the button pressed disabled

Default button being clicked multiple times when enter key is pressed

Hello,
There seems to be a strange difference in how the default button behaves in JRE 1.4.X versus 1.3.X.
In 1.3.X, when the enter key was pressed, the default button would be "pressed down" when the key was pressed, but wouldn't be fully clicked until the enter key was released. This means that only one event would be fired, even if the enter key was held down for a long time.
In 1.4.X however, if the enter key is pressed and held for more than a second, then the default button is clicked multiple times until the enter key is released.
Consider the following code (which is just a dialog with a button on it):
public class SimpleDialog extends JDialog implements java.awt.event.ActionListener
private JButton jButton1 = new JButton("button");
public SimpleDialog()
this.getContentPane().add(jButton1);
this.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(jButton1);
jButton1.addActionListener(this);
this.pack();
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
if (e.getSource() == jButton1)
System.out.println("button pressed");
public static void main(String[] args)
new SimpleDialog().show();
When you compile and run this code under 1.3.1, and hold the enter key down for 10 seconds, you will only see one print line statement.
However, if you compile and run this code under 1.4.1, and then hold the enter key down for 10 seconds, you will see about 100 print line statements.
Is this a bug in 1.4.X or was this desired functionality (e.g. was it fixing some other bug)?
Does anyone know how I can make it behave the "old way" (when the default button was only clicked once)?
Thanks in advance if you have any advice.
Dave

Hello all,
I think I have found a solution. The behaviour of the how the default button is triggered is contained withing the RootPaneUI. So, if I override the default RootPaneUI used by the UIDefaults with my own RootPaneUI, I can define that behaviour for myself.
Here is my simple dialog with a button and a textfield (when the focus is NOT on the button, and the enter key is pressed, I don't want the actionPerformed method to be called until the enter key is released):
package focustests;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.*;
public class SimpleDialog extends JDialog implements java.awt.event.ActionListener
private JButton jButton1 = new JButton("button");
public SimpleDialog()
this.getContentPane().add(new JTextField("a text field"), BorderLayout.NORTH);
this.getContentPane().add(jButton1, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
this.getRootPane().setDefaultButton(jButton1);
jButton1.addActionListener(this);
this.pack();
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
if (e.getSource() == jButton1)
System.out.println("button pressed");
public static void main(String[] args)
javax.swing.UIManager.getDefaults().put("RootPaneUI", "focustests.MyRootPaneUI");
new SimpleDialog().show();
and the MyRootPaneUI class controls the behaviour for how the default button is handled:
package focustests;
import javax.swing.*;
* Since we are using the Windows look and feel in our product, we should extend from the
* Windows laf RootPaneUI
public class MyRootPaneUI extends com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsRootPaneUI
private final static MyRootPaneUI myRootPaneUI = new MyRootPaneUI();
public static javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI createUI(JComponent c) {
return myRootPaneUI;
protected void installKeyboardActions(JRootPane root) {
super.installKeyboardActions(root);
InputMap km = SwingUtilities.getUIInputMap(root,
JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW);
if (km == null) {
km = new javax.swing.plaf.InputMapUIResource();
SwingUtilities.replaceUIInputMap(root,
JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW, km);
//when the Enter key is pressed (with no modifiers), trigger a "pressed" event
km.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ENTER,
0, false), "pressed");
//when the Enter key is released (with no modifiers), trigger a "release" event
km.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_ENTER,
0, true), "released");
ActionMap am = SwingUtilities.getUIActionMap(root);
if (am == null) {
am = new javax.swing.plaf.ActionMapUIResource();
SwingUtilities.replaceUIActionMap(root, am);
am.put("press", new HoldDefaultButtonAction(root, true));
am.put("release", new HoldDefaultButtonAction(root, false));
* This is a copy of the static nested class DefaultAction which was
* contained in the JRootPane class in Java 1.3.1. Since we are
* using Java 1.4.1, and we don't like the way the new JRE handles
* the default button, we will replace it with the old (1.3.1) way of
* doing things.
static class HoldDefaultButtonAction extends AbstractAction {
JRootPane root;
boolean press;
HoldDefaultButtonAction(JRootPane root, boolean press) {
this.root = root;
this.press = press;
public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent e) {
JButton owner = root.getDefaultButton();
if (owner != null && SwingUtilities.getRootPane(owner) == root) {
ButtonModel model = owner.getModel();
if (press) {
model.setArmed(true);
model.setPressed(true);
} else {
model.setPressed(false);
public boolean isEnabled() {
JButton owner = root.getDefaultButton();
return (owner != null && owner.getModel().isEnabled());
This seems to work. Does anyone have any comments on this solution?
Tjacobs, I still don't see how adding a key listeners or overriding the processKeyEvent method on my button would help. The button won't receive the key event unless the focus is on the button. There is no method "enableEvents(...)" in the AWTEventMulticaster. Perhaps you have some code examples? Thanks anyway for your help.

Default Button: switched to last focussed, but want Windows behavior, how?

In a JDialog, if I add components and set one to be the default button, plus
use the Windows L&F, I expect the Windows L&F behavior, that is, as long
as I tab along buttons, an Enter will activate a button if it has focus, but if I
tab to another component, the desired default button should be visually marked (darker edge)
and an Enter should activate it.
In Plugin's JRE 1.3.1, this is not the case. The default button is reset to the last button that had
the keyboard focus.
In a JVM 1.2.2, the same code produced the expected result!
The bug db listed a few solutions, one of them was to use a Focus Manager to
track focus and then "manually" reset the default button each time the focus is not on a button.
Anyone out there with a more details on this solution?
Or perhaps, there is a better solution than tracking focus events manually?
Sylvia

Found a solution myself, which at least works for windows l&f:
make all buttons non-default capable (setDefaultCapable(false)), except for the one button, that is to be the default button. This has the unfortunate effect, that a non-default button, which has input focus, does not react to to ENTER, but the ENTER is sent to the default button instead.
So must add a keyboard action to handle the ENTER:
KeyStroke keyStroke = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke ("ENTER");
ActionListener action = new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed() {getMyButton().doClick();}};
getMyButton().registerKeyboardAction (action, keyStroke, WHEN_FOCUSED);
That did it for my case.

Default buttons in Swing

I've done this before but can't remember how now. How can I make a JButton the "default" button in a JFrame, such that if I hit enter while keyboard focus is on any component in the frame (that doesn't intercept the Enter keystroke itself), it's the same as clicking the button with the mouse?

hi,
if you are working with keyboard you need to have a keytyped-method. So if the return-key is pressed just only work with this button.
example:// ...
JButton jb=new JButton("Press Return");
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e){
if(e.getKeyCode()==// the variable for return)
// do whatever the button should do
}regards

Dependent Files Dialog Default Button

Sometimes I think I've been halucinating, but ...
I could have sworn that when I first installed Dreamweaver CS6 that the default button on the put Dependent Files dialog was "No". And then one day the default became "Yes". I almost feel like I hit some mystical key-combo that changed it's behaviour & mine. Hmmm.
So is there a way to change the default button to "No"? It would be my preference.
Thanks in advance!

Am I going crazy? Was I halucinating? Did I dream the whole thing?
I couldn't possibly comment.
I remember writing something about the way dependent files work many moons ago, so I checked my "Essential Guide to DW CS4" and found a little gem of information that I had completely forgotten about.
The default for Put Dependent Files is No. However...
If you deselect the check box labelled "FTP transfer options: Select default action in dialogs after [30] seconds", guess what happens?
You've got it... The default changes to Yes.
Heaven only knows why this happens, but select that check box again, and your sanity should be preserved for a little while longer.

Snap mouse pointer to default button doesn't work

Dear Community,
I own a W520 with W7professional. My mouse is the ThinkPad bluetooth Laser Mouse.
In the mouse properties window, I've activated the "Automatically move pointer to the default button in a dialog box" option but unfortunately it seems not working.
Any idea?
Best Regards,
Marco

hey calza_mc,
try uninstalling the mouse drivers and reinstall it.
also, do an update on your bluetooth drivers while you're at it

Pointer does not move to the default button in the dialog box

example: when cleaning out trash the pointer does not go to the default button in the dialog box, you have to manually go there.
This happens all the time.

Hi Abhishek,
In SAP this job shows completed till the 3rd step. and no error in the job log. but it does not execute the 4th and the 5th steps. And in Redwood, it shows completed for 1st and 2nd steps, 3rd step is in Error but has no error log. The 4th and 5th steps are in chained status. I have not amended the job chain after import. I have just scheduled it as it was running in the SAP system.
Let me know if you need some further information on this.

Set default Button and provide a KeyEvent to a component with focus !!!

What is to do ???
I have following program:
public class DefaultButton extends Frame implements ActionListener
     private Button close;
     public DefaultButton()
          super("Default-Button");
          setLayout(null);
          setSize(400, 200);
          setLocation(150, 100);
          setBackground(Color.lightGray);
          addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
               public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
                    setVisible(false);
                    dispose();
                    System.exit(0);
          // CloseButton
          close = new Button("Close");
          close.addActionListener(this);
          close.setVisible(true);
          close.setSize(100, 30);
          close.setLocation(290, 160);
          add(close);
          setVisible(true);
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          String cmd = e.getActionCommand();
          if (cmd.equals("Close"))
               setVisible(false);
               dispose();
               System.exit(0);
     public static void main(String [] args)
          DefaultButton wnd = new DefaultButton();
}If I click on "Close"-button, the window will be closed. But, if the button "Close" has focus, it schold be possibile to close the window with a press on the Enter-Key? How to do it? How can I provide an KeyEvent to button "Close"?
Tanks for any help.

Hi pitalica!
It is possible using KeyListener:
public class DefaultButton extends Frame implements ActionListener, KeyListener {
close.addKeyListener(this);
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
if ((e.getSource() instanceof Button)
&& (((Button) e.getSource()).getActionCommand == "Close")) {
int kc = e.getKeyCode();
if (kc == KeyEvent.VK_ENTER) {
performs any action
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {}
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {}
I hope it helps.

Dear partha,
1) You can be able to trace out the location of the button
2) You can be able to move the cursor to that location
3) You can be able to automatically generate a click on that button
Use user32.dll to achieve all this. when u use it in CLN(Call Library Node), u can c functions 4 that.

How to hide default buttons on WD selection screen

Hi Experts,
Is there a way to hide default buttons ( Cancel, Check, Reset, Copy ) on web dynpro selection screen ??
Please let me know how can I achieve this..
Thanks in advance !
Anand

By selection screen do you mean the select-options reusable component? If so, then there is an API of the component that you can call to disable these fields. Use the SET_GLOBAL_OPTIONS method of the select-options API to acomplish this:
data: l_ref_cmp_usage type ref to if_wd_component_usage.
l_ref_cmp_usage =   wd_this->wd_cpuse_select_options( ).
if l_ref_cmp_usage->has_active_component( ) is initial.
    l_ref_cmp_usage->create_component( ).
endif.
wd_this->lv_wd_select_options =
       wd_this->wd_cpifc_select_options( ).
* init the select screen
wd_this->lv_sel_handler =
       wd_this->lv_wd_select_options->init_selection_screen( ).
wd_this->lv_sel_handler->set_global_options(
    EXPORTING
*      i_display_btn_cancel = ABAP_TRUE    " Displays "Cancel" Button
*      i_display_btn_check   = ABAP_TRUE    " Displays "Check" Button
*      i_display_btn_reset   = ABAP_TRUE    " Displays "Reset" Button
      i_display_btn_execute = abap_false    " Displays "Apply" Button

Default Buttons

Hi,
I've got a simple application that needs a custom "search" dialog.
I've created a subclass of JDialog and it comes up just fine...
Basically I have a JTextField for them to put in the search, a few checkboxes for the options, and two buttons at the bottom of the dialog. The buttons are named "find first" and "find next."
I've seen in many programs that when a dialog comes up and has several buttons, i.e. "yes"/"no", then often it will have one of them selected for you and if you hit [enter] it'll just activate that one. I would like to do this to my "find next" button, but am not sure how to do so.
How do I make my "find next" button be the default for the dialog?
Right now, I have an ActionListener set up on the text field so that if a user hits [enter] in the search box, the "find next" is activated. I think that this isn't the right way to go, though, since the text box has to be focused.
Thanks,
Jared

I add this code in the constructor of the JDialog to support a default button when no button has focus. (Note. when a button has focus it automatically becomes the default button)
getRootPane().setDefaultButton( findNextButton );
FocusAdapter resetDefaultButton = new FocusAdapter()
public void focusLost(FocusEvent e)
getRootPane().setDefaultButton( findNextButton );
replaceButton.addFocusListener( resetDefaultButton );
replaceAllButton.addFocusListener( resetDefaultButton );
closeButton.addFocusListener( resetDefaultButton );

Document type should always post to specific account type

Hello experts,
I have 1 question, Depeneding on the Document type definition I can post to different account types (S, K, D , M ,A). Assume I created a doc type ZA and checked all the account types then it allows me post to all the account types.
Here I want the document type ZA to validate one of the line in the document should always be type K (vendor). In short in the combinaton of account types posted to under this document type should always have one specified account type.
All contributions welcome.
Thanks,
KKR

Hi Eli,
I am not sure how to do that in this case, I have worked on validations before and I always worked with 'Constants'. If I write
If Doc type is ZA
then account type should be 'K'
But the problem is it wont allow me to post as the other line will always be different, that means a combination K and other than K.
And we are not sure how many lines going to be there in a GL document.
Do I nee to look at user exits in validations? If yes, please let me know how can I do that.
Thanks,
KKR

How to set a default button in a JFileChooser dialog?

How do I set the default button in a JFileChooser dialog?
Thanks in advance!
Thomas

public static JButton searchByText(Component comp, String[] texts) {
    if (comp instanceof JButton) {
        JButton btn = (JButton) comp;
        String text = btn.getText();
        for(int j=0; j<texts.length; ++j)
            if (text.equals(texts[j]))
                return btn;
        return null;
    if (comp instanceof Container) {
        Container cont = (Container) comp;
        for(int j=0, ub=cont.getComponentCount(); j<ub; ++j) {
            JButton result = searchByText(cont.getComponent(j), texts);
            if (result != null)
                return result;
    return null;
}You can call this method, passing it your JFileChooser and:
String[] approves = {"Open", "Save"};
