Double clicking for editing JCheckBox in JTable under java 1.6?
Hi all,
I have a JTable with JCheckboxes in a column (and associated renderer and editor). All worked good with/until java 1.5.
Now with java 1.6 I have to click two times on the checkbox in order to change the selection...
Anyone has experimented a similar problem??
I have spent some hours over this strange problem finding no way to solve it and no workaround.
Could this be a bug introduced with java 1.6?
Note that the behaviour is more strange as what I hade described in my last post:
- mouse click on a cell with a checkbox: checkbox CHANGE state
- mouse click on other celll with checkbox: NO EFFECT
- click on other celll: checkbox CHANGE state
- click on other celll: NO EFFECT
- click on other celll: checkbox CHANGE state
- click on other celll: NO EFFECT
- click on other celll: checkbox CHANGE state
- click on other celll: NO EFFECT
- ... and so on
Really strange, at least for me...

Needs double click to edit cell in JTable
I know this is bad design but there's no other way that I could possibly meet the requirement which is to have dynamic components. Anyhow, the requirement is to have any kind of components(e.g. TextFields, Combobox, Regular expression fields, a panel with a number of checkboxes) in a table cell in the same column. It would have been easier to do this by using the the DefaultCellEditor, with the 'panel containing a number of checkboxes' I cannot use it.
I already have an implementation for this requirement. There was no problem with it when we used Java 1.5. But when we shifted to Java 1.6, I noticed that I need to double-click on a cell so that I can edit it. I did not notice this behavior at all with 1.5. What could have changed in 1.6?
Below, are my (trimmed-down) codes:

How to make Double Click To Edit work instead of ClickToEdit for Af:Table
Hi All,
We use AF:Table in clickToEdit mode and most of the time the users use this table for selecting a master record then work on the detail records. To avoid the cost of rendering the selected row as editable we would like to change the behavior to Double Click To edit. This way the user can intentionally put the selected row in edit mode when needed. What would be the best approach to achieve this ?
We use 11.1.1.6 and ADF BC.
ThanksNot sure if you can get it to work in 11.1.1.6.0 as you don't have the ActiveRowKey property which can be used to make a table row editable. The property comes with 11gr2.
What you can try is to set the tabel to clicktoedit, add a clientListener which you use to listen to the click event and then cancel the event. Add another clientListener whihc handles the doubleClick event, make the clicked row the current row (see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/adf/learnmore/56-handle-doubleclick-in-table-170924.pdf) and, well now comes the problem, make the current row editable. I don't know how to do this without the ActiveRowKey property.
One other possible solution is a trick described here http://dstas.blogspot.com/2010/08/press-edit-button-to-make-table-row.html
here a transient attribute is used to manipulate the isEditable() status of an attribute of the VO. This should do the trick, but is much more work.
May be someone else knows a better solution.

Can No Longer See Photos After Double Click to Edit
Photos and videos only visible as thumbnails. When double click to edit, cannot see. However, can double click on books and see them in edit mode. All photos still located in iPhoto Library. Have run backup and gone through all four options for database repair. Have uninstalled and reinstalled version 9.5.1. Still cannot see photos. Running latest version of OS Mavericks and latest version of iPhoto.
There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
If none of these help: As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there? -
How to get "Double-click to edit" behavior in fields added to Master slides
Hi! I edited a master slide to add a box of Placeholder Text. Now the word "Text" appears whenever I make a new slide (child of the master), which is fine. But if I don't change the text on a particular slide, the word "Text" shows up there when I run the slideshow. This is different from the behavior of the Apple-defined placeholder text, where the phrase "Double-click to edit" does NOT appear when you run the slideshow.
I've searched the help files and tried various Inspector settings, but cannot seem to get this wonderful timesaving feature working for my own Master Slide fields. Is it possible?I was just looking for a solution to this... how timely! The closest I found to being able to have an "apple-defined placeholder" is by following all your steps (editing master, making new text box), but then doing the following:
1) select the text box
2) go to the "Format">"Advanced" menu and select "Define as Text Placeholder."
This isn't the same, since the text will always show up on the slides (as opposed to only showing up if YOU wrote something in the box... you can delete it if you want, but its not the same as apple's default), but it does have the functionality you want. I hope this helps you!
EDITED TO ADD:
...aaaand the age-old trick of reading the manual works again. Go to page 188 of the linked document and you'll see that there's a different way to do it. In short:
1) Make a text box in a master slide, keep it selected.
2) In the Inspector, go to "slide inspector" (second from right), and select the "appearance" tab.
3) Check the checkbox next to "Define as Text Placeholder." Assign it a tag.
For me, I found that once I did this, I could delete the text inside the textbox and it wouldn't automatically be deleted. I assume that assigning it a tag has something to do with that. I still don't know how to get text to automatically show up in the textbox... that seems to be a special functionality reserved for the apple-defined boxes. Again, I hope this helps!

In the Design tab, the content of some web pages becomes uneditable (where it had previously been editable), even though it is in an editable region in the template. All of the uneditable text has a black background. When the cursor is floated over this text a popup gives the message "overflow: hidden (double-click to edit)". (Note: the text is still editable in the Code tab.) Double clicking in the Design tab often doesn't do anything but sometimes corrects the problem. The following also didn't help:
1. Making revisions in the Code tab and then refreshing. (The revisions show up in the Design tab but the text there is still uneditable.)
2. Closing and reloading the page.
The content of other pages that use the same template remains editable.
What causes this problem?
What is the best method to prevent it and correct it?

Thanks,
Don C.The problem is always a side-effect of the use of the overflow:hidden style. So why use it? It's tremendously valuable as a way of clearing floats inside a container, rather than adding a float clearing page element. And besides, if you can still edit the content in Code view, why worry? Anyhow, paste this into a new HTML page and try it.
<div style="height:100px;overflow:hidden;">
<p>This content will not be editable without double clicking on it. Furthermore, any floats contained within this div will be cleared before closing the div, allowing the div to completely wrap its contents.</p>

</div>
In Design view, you will only see two paragraphs. When you click in either of those two paragraphs, you will not be able to edit anything. When you double click you will see the div expand to show all 4 paragraphs, and you will then be able to click and edit at will. -
Blocks in standalone applications which can be double clicked for changing parameters
Can we have blocks in standalone applications which can be double clicked for changing parameters.
something like an options/configure button which opens another window and helps us to change tha parameters of that particular
block.Well, you will need to program your application that way. Maybe I am not understanding this correctly but what parameters do you want to change in your standalone application?

Iphoto wont play movie files and wont double click for zoom or edit
Hi i bought my first ever macbook a week ago,love everything on it,iphoto worked well but today i wanted to show someone a movie file on my camea which i have in my iphoto libray clicked on it and it usually opens,today nothing!!! this file has opened loads before because its a holiday movie, loads of people have seen it but now nothing.
Also my double click to zoom or edit preference seems to do nothing whichever box you check in preffence nothing happens.
Being new to mac i hope i can find some answers!!
ChrisChris:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. First Control+click on the movie's thumbnail and select Show File from the contextual menu. When you get to the original movie file double click on it to see if you can open it in Quicktime. If not then it's more a QT issue. If it opens OK in QT go to the next procedure.
Delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder and try again. If iPhoto is still misbehaving log into another account and try the same operations in iPhoto there. If still not working you may have to reinstall iPhoto from the disk it came one. To do so you'll have to delete the current application and all files with "iPhoto" in the file name that reside in the HD/Library/Receipts folder. After you get iPhoto reinstalled run the latest update for it, 7.1.3 if needed.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard. -
How? double click to edit a cell in a JTable (Custom Editor/TableModel)
I have a JTable with a custom table model that when you click anything in the first column a custom editor appears. I would like to know how to make the custom editor appear after a double click on any cell in the first column. It can probably be done with a MouseListener but is there any easier way to do this?

Detecting mouse clicks in editable cell of JTable
Hi everyone :)
I thought that this question might have been asked before, but I have searched the forums extensively and have not been able to find the solution.
What I want to achieve is to detect single and double mouse clicks on JTable cells (that are editable).
For example, I have a JTable and there exists within it an editable cell. If the user clicks on it once then that cell goes into edit mode, and the user can type directly into the cell. I have already successfully implemented this.
However, what I also want to do is detect a double-click so that I can pop up a dilaog that shows a list of default values that the user can select.
So here is what I want;
1. User clicks on the cell once.
2. Cell moves into edit mode.
3. If the user clicks again within a certain time interval then cancel edit mode and pop up a dialog containing values that the user can select from.
I think that to do this I need to be able to detect mouse clicks on the cell that is currently being edited. So far I have been unable to discover how this is done. I have even tried extending JTextField to get what I want, but with no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Ben DeanyThanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to call 'AddMouseListener()' on a cell editor. You are only able to call 'addCellEditorListener()' and that only allows two events to the broadcast (edit cancel, and edit stop).

Handle double click for alv_tree?
hej out there,
as you may remember I'm doing some updates to UIs.
Somehow it should be possible to make alv_tree handle double_click events, shouldn't it?
I don't know how to go on. I found some methods but they don't work properly (or as expected).
I know there are methods to do so with simple_tree... hmpf. But it would be the worst solution to switch technique to simple_tree.

Single (instead of Double) click for af:table editingMode="clickToEdit"
Hi all,
My af:table has editingMode="clickToEdit".
A row becomes editable by double clicking on it - this is a default.
How can I overide this editable behaviour with ONLY SINGLE click instead of Double?
Thanks.Ok, I can overirde the selection listener,
but inside that method I do not want to: setEditingMode("editAll");
I still want the table to have editingMode="clickToEdit".
But I want with only one click (instead of double) the row to be editable.
So one row editable at the time.
But only one click to show input fields.
The tabel does not have a property (number of clicks to make the row editable) that I can control.
In RichTable class it sais:
In "clickToEdit" mode a single row editable at a time. A row becomes editable by double clicking on it.
Can I overide this with: one click on the row???
And for sure I do not want to PPR the table since default double click on the table do not refresh the whole table.
Thanks.

1 - No. We can't change those default features of iPhoto.
2 - the highlight color is hard coded in the application and is not user changeable.
It's just the nature of the beast.

I have created a form with Adobe Acrobad Pro 9.
There are a few "drop-down" boxes for people to choose options from. I created them with the "Combo box" option. They work perfectly fine on my laptop (Lenovo T500 windows 7, with all updates up to date.) I sent the file to another exact same computer and that's when the problem came up. When you click on the drop-down, the list will quickly appear and then disappear. Then if you click it again it will stay open so you can choose your option. However this only happens on "some" computers but not everyone's. I emailed the exact same form out to other people in my office and they do not have any problems with the form. There is no need to double click the drop down, it will just open up properly for them.
Has anyone come across this? And if so, is there maybe a setting on these specific laptops that is preventing the "combo box" to not work properly? I need to use this specific laptop as a "Kiosk" like a "check out" station for users to fill out the form to check out equipment. I will be running in Reader so people can not make changes to the form. (both the Acrobat Pro 9 version and the (most up to date) Reader version of the PDF form does the same "double-click" problem) I need a date drop down and an equipment type drop down.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks !I've got this kind of problem with a form of mine (designed with LCD) :
- combo boxes with font-color changing event handlers on :enter
- on Acrobat 9 Pro : no problem
- on Reader 8.3 :
- first click seems to execute the event handler but stops the combo's opening
- second click does open the combo
Do you have event handlers on combo:enter ?
Could the difference between comps where it works and comps where it doesn't be Acrobat's version ?
