Double title on JPanel

Hi,
I want to create a JPanel with a border with two titles one on the top-left and other on the bottom-right. Is there a way to do this.
I tried the Compound border with two title borders. But it seems one overlaps on the top of the other.
Is there any solution to show two titles on a border.
RT

I got the answer for what I was looking for.
Just want to post it here.
setBorder(new TitledBorder (
new TitledBorder(
BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder(),
"Hello"),
"World",
TitledBorder.RIGHT,
TitledBorder.BOTTOM));
Thanks

Enabling Double-buffer in JPanel

Does anyone know how i would enable the double-buffering that JPanel supports. I have heard that it supports that and you have to enable it. If anyone could help i would really appreciate it thanks.
mdawg

From the JDK1.2.2 API:
Constructor Summary
JPanel()
Create a new JPanel with a double buffer and a flow layout
JPanel(boolean isDoubleBuffered)
Create a new JPanel with FlowLayout and the specified buffering strategy.
JPanel(LayoutManager layout)
Create a new buffered JPanel with the specified layout manager
JPanel(LayoutManager layout, boolean isDoubleBuffered)
Creates a new JPanel with the specified layout manager and buffering strategy.
It would appear that double buffering is the default.

Repainting JPanels / Memory Allocation

Hi there! I just wrote a small Programm to test some graphical algorithms using a double-buffered Swing JPanel in a JFrame.
The Paint method of the JPanel iterates through a Vector drawing the Objects inside. The repaint occurs every 10ms.
Now when I initially start the program, the Java Interpreter already allocates 11MB of RAM, though I did nothing but initiate the Frame and the Panel.
After more than 12MB are allocated by adding Objects, all the Objects are suddenly drawn in pure white (though their color-values differ when println'ed) and the movement gets rough.
I tried to manually run the garbage collector and the runFinalization() method, since the objects are destroyed once they collide, but that had no effect on the allocated RAM. I even explicitly set deleted Objects to null, but that didn't work either.
Now when I minimize the Frame everything stays the same, but when I bring it in Focus again suddenly several Megs are released.
So now to the question: What happens when I do this? I thought only the repaint() method would be called, but apparently there's more to that!?
Could it be that there are old Grpahic contexts are stacking up for some reason? I don't know what to do anymore...

Here it is, looks a bit weird, but i did my best to
make it as readable as I could since i used 4-step
tabs and the forum killed my layout...
I removed some optional stuff that is definitely not
related to the problem to make it more readable.
drawArea=new JPanel()
{ public void paint( Graphics g)
{ Vector newCoords=new Vector();
Dimension d=drawAreaPane.getSize();
Enumeration en=balls.elements();

g.setColor(new Color(0,0,0));

};1) What jdk are you using? I would recommend using 1.4.1 if you can.
2) I would cast the Graphics object to Graphics2D and use setPaint instead of setColor.
3) As a test, try using Color.red (anything other than new Color(0,0,0)) when painting your background, just to make sure colors work.

Change the title of a TitledBorder

I have a titledBorder and set an initial title.
JPanel         panel = new JPanel();
Border         etched = BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder();
TitledBorder   title = BorderFactory.createTitledBorder(etched, "myPanelNameEnglish");
title.setTitleJustification(TitledBorder.LEFT);
panel.setBorder(title);If the user change the language I also want change the title of the TitledBoarder:
TitledBorder tb = (TitledBorder) panel.getBorder();
tb.setTitle("myPanelNameInFrench");I realize it for all buttons, labels etc. but the title of the TitledBoarder.
Is it possible to change it's title? And how? Please help me :)

Sure you can change the title on the fly.
Here's some code that shows how it is done:
final JFrame f = new JFrame( "Test Frame" );
final JPanel p = new JPanel();
p.setBorder( BorderFactory.createTitledBorder( "This is a title" ) );
p.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( 400, 400 ) );
JButton b = new JButton ( "Click me" );
b.addActionListener( new ActionListener(){
     @Override
     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
          ((javax.swing.border.TitledBorder)p.getBorder()).setTitle( "Nother title" );
          p.revalidate();
          p.repaint();
p.add( b );
f.getContentPane().add( p );
f.setSize( 500, 500 );
f.setVisible( true );
f.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE );

Encore encoding rolling titles incorrectly.

I've got an approximately 1 hour video - a dance recital. I've got rolling titles at the end stretched out to 3% speed, to cover an entire song. The titles are off to the right side and on the left there is a montage of clips in a resized frame.
Snap below. And video inserted.
The video in this montage has no filters, just third party transitions.
It's done this for MP4 and DVD encoding.... but only on a two pass. One pass encodes fine.
Here are the encoding specs:
Mpeg2-DVD : NTSC match attributes
2 pass VB, use previews.
The MPeg4 was the Vimeo HD preset with a 2 pass and use previews.
I didn't change any other settings.
When I encode with one pass the titles are correct. If I go to two pass, you see what happens, both in this still and in the video clip.
Anyone understand why this is happening?
Is it usually a big compromise in quality to only have one pass?
Thanks for all your help.
Jessica

ok....to make matters worse......the video that's on Vimeo...actually plays correctly. Huh?????
You can see that the thumbnail has the double titles...but, when you play it, it's ok. It's not ok if I play it with VLS or Media player on my machine. What the heck could be happening????
I'm not producing a one pass, but I'm going to put the test clip in Encore and see how it produces/plays through that..

Retrieve data from SQL database and put into a table

C:\Documents and Settings\L311c01\Desktop\FYPJ Java2\RFIDLogistics.java:25:{color:#ff0000} cannot find symbol

I understand that " cannot find symbol class ResultSetTable means that i need to import something which has this ResultSetTable. I suppose my imports are sufficient and i think the error is with the package that i included.

Sharing tags from existing library to re-burned music

I am reburning all my CDs as AIFF files for use in Sonos sound system. I have an existing set of .m4a files from the first time I burned everything. 2 things I am not smart enough to know how to do: I would like an automated method to make all the metadata tags on the new burns match my old, hand-edited tags on the .m4a files. Also, I would like to "divide up" my existing library into 2 pieces so that my .m4a and .aif files are completely separated. Basically just 'cuz it drives me crazy to look at all the doubled titles...
Any thanks with either would be appreciated!

am reburning all my CDs as AIFF
Do you mean reRIPping? RIP is to get files off an audio CD. Burn means to create an audio CD as in Burn with the laser.
I would like to "divide up" my existing library into 2 pieces so that my .m4a and .aif files are completely separated.
I suggest you create new library only for the AIFF files. Hold the Option key and launch iTunes then select *Create library*.
Select somewhere and name it *iTunes AIFF library* (or something) then use that to RIP the CDs to AIFF.

Flash update messed up FF Add-ons and the Open New Tab button.

FF told me that I needed to update Flash, so I said OK. Whereupon all of my FF Add-ons disappeared. Seems that FF needed to check with the mother ship to find out if everything were compatible with this new Flash update--but the mother ship was not available (this has happened several times).
Why didn't FF check on the compatibility issues BEFORE getting the Flash update?!
I will remove Flash (did this in the past, and the lost functionalities were no big deal). I will also change the settings on FF so that the program won't do this again. (I periodically go see about FF updates myself and try to sit on FF while the updates are being done.)
BTW ... I had FF set to NO DOWNLOAD/UPDATE anything until/unless I have the OK. The past few weeks, I've gotten constant notes from FF telling me to get FF6.0. I was almost ready--but not quite ready--and yesterday FF updated itself. NO OK from me.
As I type this, I've finally gotten all of my FF Add-ons and other mods back. And it looks like my bookmark tabs are all squared-away again, too. (The AddNewTab button completely disappeared.)
So, this is no longer a question for you that could use an answer. Instead, I'd like you to pass my frustrations along to the development crew. I HATE the uncertainty/instability of my Firefox Add-ons and Stylish mods. (I'd rather just skip them.)
I understand that the Add-ons are not the work of Mozilla (not like the browser program itself, anyway) and that the job of getting everything to work together must be insanely difficult. So I'm not wanting to complain about the compatibility hassles here--I'm complaining about the need to watch FF carefully to make sure FF doesn't jump up and do something that I don't want. That and the fact that I have to remember that FF will change my system BEFORE checking to see if it's going to make a mess for me.
I only recently returned to Firefox and started using some of the Add-ons again. I love them. But I don't think I'll ever use more than 6 or so Add-ons because of the constant problems with updates like this mess today with Macropedia's Flash. The one thing I don't want in a browser is problems.
Thanks for your attention here ...
Jack

I'm sorry to hear that you have so many issues. What version of Firefox were you using before?
The double title bar issue has been identified as an issue with the Tax Mix Plus extension but it doesn't affect everyone, it's an interaction with something else (not exactly clear what, although Norton Toolbar was mentioned in one thread).
There is a new version available that you could try. If Firefox is stable enough to do it...
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > "gear" icon > Check for Updates
If your beta version won't update, you could try installing [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ from the add-ons site].
More generally, could I suggest disabling as many extensions as you can live without for 24 hours, and re-enable them gradually? This should help isolate interactions between them. As you know, you can do that here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
Finally, regarding your old session, if you haven't closed Firefox, you might find a sessionstore.bak file in your profile folder that contains your old session. To easily access that folder, try
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Grab a copy of that file and save it somewhere outside the folder because it is overwritten when you close Firefox. Got to run, but if you find one with an appropriate date, someone can help you restore it.

DrawString from ArraryList Problem

First off, I am very to this forum, so if this is not the correct forum, please advise, (continue to have issues with this one).
I'm a current Java1 student working on the final project for the year. Not looking to have answer provided but simply looking for a direction to move toward the issue I'm having.
Project involves creating a digital signature, (a crude version of the approval pads you sign with electronic pen at Home Depot, Lowes, 7-11, you get the picture). The major difference is that we are signing the pad with our mouse just to show functionality.
Problem is: When mouseReleased is invoked after signing one's first name and mousePressed is invoked at the start of the last name, a connector line is drawn from end of first name to beginning of last name. I am looking to have a new word started when mouseReleased is invoked.
Below is the code pertinent to this part of the program, if more is needed let me know.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Switch to a new array list. Or you have to have a state machine track that you are signing your last name. What is happening is that you are just adding a new point to the existing array, so you naturally draw a line from the last point to the next point--that is the logic you use all the way though to generate your signature. This seems to work for you, but you have a mouse release, you need to go to the next state, that is, to the last name, you do this with another ArrayList to hold the data for the last name. You'll have to amend your paint logic to take in:
State: 0 -- clear
State: 1 -- getting first name
State 2 -- have first name and getting second name
state 3 -- complete all is done.
Unless you want to accept signatures that have multiple breaks like mine does... I have 5 sections on my signature. In that case you need to just keep on collecting new point set data until they click done.

with a large set of rather complicated options several times, where the user needs to make a small change each time the dialog is shown. My code looks more or less like this:
// create a modal dialog
JDialog controlDialog = new JDialog(parent,title,true);
JPanel contentPanel = new JPanel()
// set up all the necessary inputs and buttons on the panel
// add the panel to the dialog
controlDialog.getContentPane.add()
// a loop to get the data
for (int i=0; i<nPoints; i++) {
controlDialog.toFront();
// stop and get the user input
controlDialog.show();
// process the results
}Under Windows, this does what I think it should - it shows the dialog 10 times, each time on top of all other windows. On Linux, it does not. The first time the dialog comes up on top. The next (and all the other times) it is at the bottom, hidden behind all the other windows in the screen, which is highly inconvenient. I'm using Sun JDK1.3.1 on Redhat Linux 7.0 with Gnome. What's wrong?
I can of course re-create the dialog every time, but given the number of inputs on it, saving and restoring its state is more trouble than I would like to deal with.
Thanks,
Myrosia

I had a problem with this in the past and the issue was with the dialog's constructor with respect to the 'Parent Component'. In my experience the toFront() method only pertains to the component used when constructing the dialog. So if during the course of your user's input the dialog apears over more than one component (Frame/dialog) then the toFront() method may not work.
I had to resort to re-creating my dialog for each different frame/dialog it needed to appear over. This was no problem for me since my dialog was not very busy and it needed no state to be saved but I can understand how it would be a problem for you.
In my application there are two or more JFrame's visible at once and the dialogs with JFrame 1 as a parent aloways apear over JFrame 1 but are hidden by JFrame 2 and visa-versa. This seems to support my theory.
Again, in my experience, the only way to ensure a dialog apears on top of your application is to make sure that the component used as "Parent" in the Dialog's constructor is the component currently in control when the dialog needs to appear.

How can i pass variables between classes?

Hi.
i have three classes and i need use a variable from 'Battleship' and use it in 'BattleWindow', these summaries of the classes, if anyone could give me a solution without editing it too much it would be greatly appreciated
public class Ship{
public Ship(){
int missilesLeft;
int shots = 10;
for (int i=0;i<8;i++) {
     missilesLeft = shots - 1;
//Panel
public class PanelWindow{
     public static void main (String [] args) {
     System.out.println(missilesLeft.Ship);
Andrew

i still can get it to work.. but i think that you got me quite close;
this is where i need to get missilesLeft from
//BattleShip
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e){
     tries--;
     for (int i = 0; i < 8; i++){
      for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++){
       if (e.getSource().equals(buttons[i][j]) && ship[i][j] == true){
        buttons[i][j].setBackground(new Color(80,80,80));
        hit++;
        System.out.println(hit+" "+total);
       else if (e.getSource().equals(buttons[i][j]) && ship[i][j] == false){
        buttons[i][j].setBackground(new Color(0,0,255));
     //Win
      if (isWin()){
       int hits = 64 - tries;
       int misses = hits- hit;
       int score = ((tries+hit)/misses)*64;
       missilesLeft = tries - 30;
       mis = missilesLeft;
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "You WIN!\n \nMissiles used: "+hits+"\nMissiles left: "+missilesLeft+"\nHits: "+hit+"\nMisses: "+misses+"\nScore: "+score );
     //Game Over
     if (isGameOver()){
       JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, " GAME OVER!!\n*******************\nYou have run out of missiles!\nTRY AGAIN");
//BattleWindow
private void build(){
          main = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
          title = new JPanel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER));
          right= new JPanel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER));
          left = new JPanel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER));
          bottom = new JPanel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.RIGHT));
          displayField = new JTextField("000", 8);
          displayField.setEditable( false );
          b = new Battleship();
          JLabel t = new JLabel("Battleship Potemkin");
          Font myFont = new Font("Arial",Font.BOLD,32);
          t.setFont(myFont);
          title.add(t);
          help = new JButton("Help");
        exit = new JButton("Quit");
        help.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD, 17));
        exit.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD, 17));
        displayField.setFont(new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD, 22));
          main.add(title,BorderLayout.NORTH);
          main.add(left,BorderLayout.WEST);
          main.add(right,BorderLayout.EAST);
          main.add(bottom,BorderLayout.SOUTH);
          main.add(b,BorderLayout.CENTER);
         this.add(main);
          help.addMouseListener(this);
          exit.addMouseListener(this);
          bottom.add(displayField);
          bottom.add(help);
          bottom.add(exit);
          setSize(500,600);
          setResizable(false);
          String aString = Integer.toString(bob);
          displayField.setText(displayField.getText() + bob);
          //displayField.setText("bob");
          }the variable bob in must have the same value as missilesLeft
thank you

Rendering of tab row and pages is totally messed up when I add/remove/scroll through tabs

After upgrading to 4b9 from 4b8, the rendering is totally messed up, whenever I add, remove or simply scroll through the tab row (if I'm calling it correctly). The tab row basically disappears and at least 5 seconds to come back, while lots of flashing and buggy behavior. During this time the rendering of the main page is also messed up.
After it finishes rendering, the main page could still be in a bad state. At which I have to switch tabs or scroll the main page, to force a re-draw of the main page, to get the rendering looking correct.
The only clue I have is that I have lots and lots of tabs open. And it looks like when I'm on the first few tabs it doesn't happen as badly.. This worked perfectly on 4b8.

I'm sorry to hear that you have so many issues. What version of Firefox were you using before?
The double title bar issue has been identified as an issue with the Tax Mix Plus extension but it doesn't affect everyone, it's an interaction with something else (not exactly clear what, although Norton Toolbar was mentioned in one thread).
There is a new version available that you could try. If Firefox is stable enough to do it...
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > "gear" icon > Check for Updates
If your beta version won't update, you could try installing [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ from the add-ons site].
More generally, could I suggest disabling as many extensions as you can live without for 24 hours, and re-enable them gradually? This should help isolate interactions between them. As you know, you can do that here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons > Extensions category
Finally, regarding your old session, if you haven't closed Firefox, you might find a sessionstore.bak file in your profile folder that contains your old session. To easily access that folder, try
Help > Troubleshooting Information > "Show Folder" button
Grab a copy of that file and save it somewhere outside the folder because it is overwritten when you close Firefox. Got to run, but if you find one with an appropriate date, someone can help you restore it.

Why repaint is automatically called

in the slot machine program below, you try to run it, play once , after that you leave the bet textfield to be 0, and click play again, when you click down the JOptionMessage dialog, three slot is atomatically set back to lemon, but it shoudn't be that, I didn't call repaint in my program, why

That's the way repaint works
Anytime a java component which lies beneath some other window is uncovered, the UI thread will do a repaint

Firefox opens 4 windows on start

Every time I open Firefox now, it launches with 4 windows. One is a normal window (showing the site I was on last), and 3 are blank windows with double title bars and an orange Firefox tab. I can't see what's causing this, or how to correct it..?

You can check:
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Preferences_not_saved
This can be a problem with the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
Delete [http://kb.mozillazine.org/sessionstore.js sessionstore.js] and sessionstore.bak in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder]
If you see files sessionstore-##.js with a number in the left part of the name like sessionstore-1.js then delete those as well.

How to detect a signal saturation on voltage channels

Hi,
I have many votage channels with personnal's scales.
I would like to know if it's possible to detect a input saturation (voltage out of range, +10/-10V for exemple), directly in the acquisition channel.
I can do reverse scale to know the voltage value but I would like to know if there is a automatic flag in the channel.

this might work
