Double Mouse Click

Good afternoon, I'm an Adobe Captivate's user and I need some
informations about the object "Click Box". When we use the option
"Duble Mouse Click", here in my job, it's not working. Does it need
another configuration to function? I need some aid. Thanks,
Caroline Reis.

I'm seeing the same issue. I've put in a bug report for it. Someone suggested that it happens with AS3, and that may be the case, since it only happens sometimes for me, but always in Captivate 5, which only has AS3.
To clarify - it expects a double click (a single click doesn't work), but when you double click, the slide moves ahead, but the second click registers as an error on the next slide, and brings up the failure caption.
This link suggests the source of the problem.

Disable a double mouse click...

Can anyone show me how to disable a double left mouse click.

just add a mouselistener to the component you want to stop it, and this will trap the mouse clicks for you.
the api docs describe the listener more fully http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/awt/event/MouseListener.html

Use mouse click trigger option more than once?

Hi, is there some way to use the "mouse click" trigger option more than once in the project? I am trying to build a menu button animate where the users click the (menu grid icon) once, and it transforms into the (x icon) and stays there until they click it again ONCE to change it back to the (menu grid icon). Other trigger actions aren't ideal, and I find that if I used the "double mouse click", the response gets a bit messy as clicking once would replay the whole sequence again. Thanks!

At CreationComplete make a var as:
button = -1;
At click event of the button write:
if (button == -1){
sym.getSymbol("nmnmnmn").play("xicon"); // if you have a trigger in timeline to make this action that you want
button++;
else {
sym.getSymbol("nmnmnmn").play("returnedicon");
button = -1;
Somehow like the above you'll have to do it.
Or else you can use boolean , TRUE/FALSE

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 Deany

Thanks 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).

Double value of mouse click

hi, I am making a program in which I need to get the Double value of the point where I clicked on my JPanel. Is it possible to get the Double or float value of the point at which mouse click event occur.

The mouse pointer is always exactly on one physical pixel, hence the integer coordinates are most accurate. You could pretend that the user means some other point (like the center of the pixel instead of the upper left corner) than the one s/he is pointing, that's your own business.
You may actually lose accuracy when you cast the ints to doubles or floats.

Distinguishing b/t two single mouse-click and mouse-double-click

Hi,
I am curious to find out how Forms will distinguish between two single when-mouse-click events and a single when-mouse-doubleclick event. Is it simply a timing issue or is there more involved i.e. the 'co-ordinates' of the mouse. Thanks in advance for any opinions given,
regards,
Kevin.

The difference is same as the difference of Apple and Orange.
Its depends on O/S and event management within OS kernel.
You can change the timing in Control panel of mouse double click.

Diable "open dialog box" on right mouse click so I can use l mouse to advance to next slide and r mouse click to "go back." How in PP 2010 for mac????

I do presentations in PP10. I am new to macair, and used to Windows. HOW DO I DISABLE THE "OPEN DIALOG BOX ON RIGHT CLICK"? I would like to use L mouse to advance slide, and R mouse to go back. The default is to use R mouse to open dialog box. I can disable this by unchecking the box in "advanced" on the PC. How do I do it with the Mac????
Thanks

Hi Rod,
As originally stated in my opening post, the SWF is to be inserted into an Articulate '13 slide (what I called an aggregator originally - I tried not to bring them up since I don't want the chatter about "There's your problem - using Articulate"! ).
Recall that posting this published file to our LMS did not allow right-mouse click functionality as the flash player menu just gets in the way.
If I insert the captivate 6 files into Articulate as a Web Object (referencing the entire folder with html, htm and assets, and then posted to our LMS, and it DOES allow RM click operations in both IE and FF (although no sound on the Captivate slide in FF). But this is not what we want to do as this introduces 2 navigation controls (the Captivate one and the Articulate Player).
Why must anything be posted to a web server for this functionality to work?
I am able to go into the Captivate 6's published folder, and launch the Captivate demonstration by simply double clicking on the index.html file and this works great in both FF and IE after changing the security settings for flash.
Again - I can not believe I am the only one out there trying to use the right-mouse click feature to do a software simulation by embedding the Captivate SWF into an Articulate '13 project.

Mouse clicks not detected on JTabbedPane

Hi all,
I have a JPanel placed inside a JTabbedPane. I want to double-click on the JPanel and bring up a JDialog. This works fine if the JPanel is not in a JTabbedPane, but if it is on a JTabbedPane, then the mouse clicks are not detected. I'd greatly appreciate any help you can give me.

Here is a sample program that seems to work:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
public class TestInternalFrame extends JFrame
     public TestInternalFrame()
          JDesktopPane desktop = new JDesktopPane();
          setContentPane( desktop );
          JInternalFrame internal = new JInternalFrame( "Internal Frame" );
          desktop.add( internal );
          internal.setLocation( 50, 50 );
          internal.setSize( 300, 300 );
          internal.setVisible( true );
          JTabbedPane tabbedPane = new JTabbedPane();
          internal.getContentPane().add(tabbedPane);
          tabbedPane.setPreferredSize( new Dimension(300, 200) );
          JPanel panel = new JPanel();
          tabbedPane.add( "Empty Panel", panel );
          panel.addMouseListener( new MouseAdapter()
               public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
                    System.out.println(e.getClickCount());
     public static void main(String args[])
TestInternalFrame frame = new TestInternalFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( EXIT_ON_CLOSE );
frame.setSize(400, 400);
frame.setVisible(true);

Mouse clicks count!

Hello!
I have a JTable. I added a mouse listener to it! The problem is that I cannot count the mouse clicks correctly!
I have:
mouseClicked(... e){
e.getClickCount()
but I only get 1 click, despite the double click I made!
Does the table mouse listener erases the preceding event and never gets to count the second click? I got the behaviour of two single clicks!
THANKS in advance!
Rui Vale

... the the milli between the events... if they are say 40 milli or less the action is a double click...if not restart the chronometer...You can use other listener to...it depends on what you want to do!

Can't open new tabs with double left click on tab bar in FF29.0.1?

I've always enjoyed how tabs work in FF, mainly with them being on the bottom (which I had to find a work-around for by making the userChrome.css file - the "about:config" modification no longer works) and also being able to double left click on the tab bar to create new tabs.
With the most recent update, double left clicking on the tab bar no longer has a function, and to create new tabs, I must now middle click. It's not a big deal really, but is there a way to change this back?
I searched through some options on the "about:config" page, searched "tab" and found an option there: "browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick" that seemed promising. I changed the value to "False" but it didn't change anything - in fact, middle clicking still creates new tabs.
I tried adding a modified function with "leftclick" in it, just to see if it might do anything but, nothing.
Any other suggestions for restoring the double left click function to create new tabs? Thanks!

browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick
If set to false, middle-clicking <u>links on web pages</u> opens them in a new window. It probably also affects bookmarks, history entries, and items in the address bar drop-down menu.

You need an add-on. Here are two I know about:
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/ Classic Theme Restorer]. In the add-on's option window, click the Special tab and check "Tabs toolbar: double click opens a new tab"
* [https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ Tab Mix Plus]. In the add-on's option window, click the Mouse icon, then the Mouse Clicking tab, then the Double-click tab below that.

A script that captures the coordinates of the mouse clicks and saves them into a file

Hello,
I'm trying to create a cartoon taking a movie (I've chosen blade runner) as base. I've got the real movie and I've exported all the pictures using VirtualDUB. Now I have a lot of images to modify. I would like to modify the actors faces with the faces generated by Facegen modeller. I'm thinking how to make the whole process automatic because I have a lot of images to manage. I've chosen to use Automate BPA,because it seems the best for this matter. I'm a newbie,so this is my first attempt using Adobe Photoshop and Automate BPA. I wrote a little script. It takes a face generated with Facegen modeller and tries to put it above the original actors faces. But it doesn't work very good and I'm not really satisfied,because the process is not fully automated. To save some time I need to write a script that captures the coordinates of the mouse when I click over the faces and that saves them into a file,so that Automate BPA can read these coordinates from that file and can put the face generated with Facegen Modeller above the original face. I think that Automate BPA is not good for this matter. I think that two coordinates are enough,X and Y. They can be the coordinates of the nose,because it is always in the middle of every face. It is relevant to knows how big should be the layer of the new face,too. This is the Automate BPA code that I wrote :

and this is a short video to explain better what I want to do :
http://www.flickr.com/photos/26687972@N03/5331705934/
In the last scene of the video you will see the script asking to input the X and the Y coordinates of the nose. This request is time consuming. For this reason I want to write a script that captures automatically the coordinates of the mouse clicks. The only thing to do should be click over the nose and the script should make the rest. As "c.pfaffenbichler" suggested here : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/775219, I could explore 3 ways :
1) use the Color Sampler Tool’s input with a conventional Photoshop Script.
2) use After Effects would provide a better solution.
3) Photoshop’s Animation Panel might also offer some easier way as it might be possible to load two movies (or one movie and one image) and animate the one with the rendered head in relation to the other.
Since I'm a totally newbie in graphic and animation,could you help me to explore these ways ? Thanks for your cooperation.

These are the coordinates of the contours of the face that you see on the picture. Can you explain to me how they are calculated ? The coordinates of the first colums are intuitive,but I'm not able to understand how are calculated the coordinates of the second one.
Thanks.
1 COL 2 COL (how are calculated these values ?)

How can i run a jar file as EXE on mouse click..

If it's the latter then you need to make the jar file including a manifest.
The manifest can be just a txt file with its content to be something like this:
Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.7.1
Created-By: Somebody
Main-Class: NameOfTheMainClass
Class-Path:
X-COMMENT: Main-Class will be added automatically by buildTo make the jar file including the manifest, use something like this in your command prompt (of course you must have compiled your java file(s) first):
jar cfm test.jar MANIFEST.txt NameOfTheMainClass.classAfter that you'd be able to run your application just by double clicking it.
If you're a NetBeans user, you can build your standalone application by right-clicking your project and then going to properties => run => and choosing a Main class. After that right click on that project and "Clean and Build", locate the jar file in the "dist" folder and double click it =]
Hope it helps,

Mail does not respond to mouse clicks properly

This bug in Mail started in Lion, and has continued (or possibly worsened in some instances) in Mountain Lion. Has anybody heard of a fix?
Basically Mail acts like it is freezing, but in fact is not handling mouse clicks properly.
1) If Mail is "behind" another active app window, clicking in the content area of the Mail window will not activate the window until you click a SECOND time.
2) Once you get Mail to respond by clicking it the second time, if you click back and forth between it and the window in front (e.g. between safari and mail, the clicks DO register, but Mail acts as if the click position is offset from where you actually click. The offset seems to vary and I haven't found a consistent link between the offset and where I click in mail or the other window, or the relative positions of the two windows.
3) When you try the 2) trick on elements that can scroll, you realise that as well as an offset, Mail is trying to "drag" instead of respond to a click, so the list of mail folders pulls and bounces back, or the list of mail scrolls, or sometimes if everything lines up, an image of an envelope appears and moves as if you are trying to drag an email from one place to another.
4) Clicking on the title/button/toolbar of Mail ALWAYS brings it to the front...
5) If you bring Mail to the front by repeatedly clicking on the content area (and yes, sometimes it takes more than one click...) and as the FIRST thing you do after activating the window, click one of the buttons in the toolbar (e.g. the trash or delete button), it will depress, and stay down, as if you have done a "press and hold" instead of a "click". Clicking on the button again will complete the action, but clicking elsewhere in the title bar will release the button and the action will not occur, just as if you had held the mouse button down and dragged off the button before releasing, which is appropriate behaviour IF you had held the mouse button down in the first place...
6) If you activate Mail by clicking in the content area, then clicking a second time in the content area, then continue to single click around the content, it behaves as if it is one step behind you, responding as if the LAST click is the click you just made. Interestingly the "button down state" seems to persist, because for instance clicking on a succession of emails will highlight each email in turn, but the content of the email on the right will not update with each click, only updating when you "break out of the cycle" with a double click or a title bar click.
These are all REPRODUCIBLE, even after a restart.
They ONLY happen in Mail.
I have tried mouse, track pad, turning off bluetooth, so I don't think these things are related.
SO...
I THINK that MAIL, since Lion, has an issue with its event handler, where MouseUp events are either lost or mishandled, so that clicks are being registered as drags, or the "button down" state is not updated or something...
With the above description I feel the Mail programming team should be able to track down the bug in minutes and fix it.
Apple - feel free to get in contact with me and I will let you access my machine via remote desktop or teamviewer or something to see the bug in action.
It is time to fix this annoying behaviour.
Message was edited by: jaffle
Worked out that 2 and 6 are related - the offset isn't an offset at all - it is the thing you last clicked on!

Okay, I tried deleting the Finder preferences first (along with a handful of other preference files that I knew were no longer needed), and it seemed to help--at first. But eventually, all the same problems started happening again, so I concluded that it was necessary to just start with a fresh (empty) preferences folder. As you know, this is a pain to deal with, but I limited my pain by moving all the old preferences files into a folder on the Desktop rather than simply deleting them. That way, I could just put back any missing preferences that were too hard to recreate. Restoring all of my preferences with new (uncorrupted) prefs files will be an ongoing process, but the good news is that this effort (so far) seems to have solved the problem. Mail is responding to all my clicks, even when I switch between different apps and different spaces. :-)
Now that things are working correctly, I notice that when I switch between apps and/or spaces, the selected app (or the frontmost app in the new space) will show an active state for its window, whereas before, the selected app didn't update to show that it was active--it kept the inactive state for its window. I'm no expert, but it seems to me that this might have something to do with the windowserver process, so it might make sense for the next person who stumbles on this thread to start by deleting any preferences files that begin with com.apple.windowserver. Just a hunch, but it's worth starting there before you do a complete flush of all your preferences.
Thanks again for the help--hopefully this workaround will be persistent. Fingers crossed!

What is the recommended way to handle mouse click events for custom nodes that subclass Panes?

Hi,
I have created a custom node that is a StackPane containing a Label on top of a Polygon.
import javafx.scene.control.Label;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.shape.Polygon;
public class CustomHexagon extends StackPane {
    private Polygon hexagon;
    private Label overlayText;
    public CustomHexagon( String text, double... points ) {
        this.hexagon = new Polygon( points );
        this.overlayText = new Label( text );
        overlayText.setStyle( "-fx-font-weight: bold;" );
        hexagon.setStroke( Color.GREEN );
        hexagon.setStrokeWidth( 5.0 );
        hexagon.setFill( Color.WHITE );
        this.getChildren().addAll( hexagon, overlayText );
// Lays out the node where it should be according to the points provided for the Polygon.
        this.setLayoutX( points[0] - getLayoutBounds().getMinX() );
        this.setLayoutY( points[1] - getLayoutBounds().getMinY() );
// Show the border of the StackPane.
        this.setStyle( "-fx-border-color: black; -fx-border-width: 1; -fx-border-style: dashed;");
    public String getOverlayText() {
        return overlayText.getText();
I want to display a tesselation of these custom hexagons. Because a CustomHexagon is a StackPane, not a Polygon, MouseClick events can be picked up when the mouse is clicked outside of the stroke of the hexagon but still within the StackPane (which takes up a rectangle larger than the hexagon). The following program demonstrates this.
public class Main extends Application {
    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) {
        Group root = new Group();
        CustomHexagon[] hexagons = {
            new CustomHexagon( "00", 10.0, 10.0, 30.0, 10.0, 40.0, 27.3205080756, 30.0, 44.6410161512, 10.0, 44.6410161512, 0.0, 27.3205080756 ),

            new CustomHexagon( "02", 130.0, 10.0, 150.0, 10.0, 160.0, 27.3205080756, 150.0, 44.6410161512, 130.0, 44.6410161512, 120.0, 27.3205080756 ),

After running this program, when one clicks within the intersection of two StackPanes (borders shown by dashed lines), the target of the mouse click event will be the StackPane on top as determined by the order in which they were added to their parent.
This is a problem because there is only a small "T" shaped area within each hexagon that when clicked will target that hexagon with an event, rather than adjacent nodes.
I would appreciate any reccomendations to solve this problem.
Thanks,

Hello, this is an evergreen. Just call setPickOnBounds(false) on the CustomHexagon.
An issue tracking this problem is open here: https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-17024

Response to mouse click by combo box list and underlying clickable label

Hello,
we developed a label responding to a mouse click by opening and thereby displaying an associated help text. The label extends a project specific hierarchy of labels and thus implements MouseListener, of course. Now we encountered a strange problem: It occurs when a combo box is placed above such a label in a panel. By clicking the combo box a selective list drops down and covers the label. As soon as a mouse click is performed on a list item directly covering (i.e., right in front of) the clickable label not only this item is selected but the help screen associated with the underlying label is displayed, too. So the mouse click is processed twice: as proposed by the combo box and unwantedly by the label. This behaviour could not be reproduced on other components being placed below a combobox. So the label itself seems to be the cause but we cannot imagine what could exactly be the reason for this double reaction. Perhaps anyone heard of something like that?
We are currently working with IBM Visual Age for Java 2.0 (Java version 1.1.8 with the according Swing version). The clickable label reflectively calls methods of a model to determine whether help is available and if so later on to open this help text.
Any help is appreciated!
Danilo

Thank you for your response. I tried both to check the focus and to consume the event. But I had to learn that labels are not able to catch the focus. I also was not able to consume an appropriate event of the combobox. So I finally solved the problem by extending JButton and implementing ActionListener. Thus my labels are actually buttons but I changed their appearance and behaviour so one cannot distinguish them from labels.
