How do I add a mouseEvent to an area

does anyone know how i add a mouseEvent to an area?
i want to test the response of the user to hit a Graphic on the screen
but i dont know how to make the Graphic so that it can be hit.
Simple enough problem just im a bit dim. lol
THanks for any help that would be offered,

You could add a mouse listener to the whole panel (or whatever container you're using) and then test each mouse click to see if it's within the area you're looking for.
The getPoint() method of MouseEvent will tell you where the event occurred. If the graphic is rectangular, you can use the contains(Point p) method to see if the event occurred inside that region.

How do i add a an editable text area along with a basic shape?

hiee
Thank u guys for replying to my previous query.I got the solution.
Now ,my problem is, whenever i am drawing a new shape on the panel i want to add an editable text area along with the shape so that the shape can be given a userdefined name(something like Rational Ross).
I am using g.drawString() but with that i can only add a static string.
How can i add a JTextField or JTextArea along with the shape??
Thanking u guys in advance.
anvesha.

It is considered standard procedure to acknowledge people's replies in the corresponding thread.
As for your current problem, you'll have to make sure that the component you're subclassing is at least a Container. A JPanel could be a good pick. Set the layoutManager to null. Add your JTextField to your JPanel and use myTextField.setBounds(x, y, width, height) to place it whereever you want.

How do you add/use typekit fonts that are not edge web fonts?

I am just trying out the new Muse CC 2014.1 (August) release and was keen to try the new font facilities. As far as I can see that while I can now add other fonts for which I have downloaded web font files via the Self Hosted Web Fonts function, Typekit fonts that are not "Adobe Edge Web Fonts" are effectively unavailable? Have I missed something.
As an example I want to use the Proxima Nova web font family. I have selected it on the type kit site, set them up to Sync via my Creative Cloud account. So for example if I select a font in Photoshop CC or Illustrator, the Proxima Nova fonts appear. Even ok in Word for Mac. They do not appear in Muse.
To add them as self hosted web fonts, I would need to physically download the relevant fonts files and install them on my desktop using the OS-X font tool. However as they are being sync'd via Creative Cloud this shouldn't be necessary should it? Also I don't see an option for doing so on the typekit site.
Any help or guidance would be very welcome.
PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.

Hi David,
I'm sorry that you ran into trouble with this. To add fonts from Typekit to your Muse website, you will want to use the web fonts path instead of desktop fonts. (You can use a desktop font synced from Typekit in your Muse design, but it will exported as an image the same as any other system font.)
There are a couple options for using Typekit web fonts in Muse:
o) The Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
o) Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website. The steps are the same as this tutorial, but you will add the Typekit embed code to Muse instead of into your page directly:
TYPEKIT | Adding fonts to your site
Note that in either case the Typekit fonts will not be displayed in the Muse preview window. You'll need to publish your site to a server in order for the Typekit fonts to be loaded into the page.
If those look like more coding that you are comfortable with, you might try one of the fonts which you can select from the font menu instead. Here are some that are similar to :
https://edgewebfonts.adobe.com/fonts#/?xHeight=high&contrast=low&class=sans-serif&width=re gular
We are also working on a more complete integration of Typekit with Muse in the future, but I can't say yet when that will be available.
>> PS: I seem to have a separate issue with the Creative Cloud app, which is not listing fonts under the Assets tab. But I don't think that is related as they are working fine for Photoshop, etc.
Do you see a "loading" icon in the tab (e.g. a blue spinner wheel)? It sounds similar to this thread; you might try these suggestions:

I hope that this helps; let me know if you have any other questions. Best,

Add colors to the value area in a XY chart

Hi,
I want to present values in an XY Chart with Xcelsius Std 4.5. The chart is divided in 4 equal zones, so the values fall in one zone (red: critical, green: good, etc)
Does somebody know how can I add different colors to the area of the chart?
When I add colored rectangle with transparency: if it's in the "back" I dont see it, if it is in the "front" I see the symbols of the values quite bad because they are behind the transparency...
Any idea out there?
Thanks in advance

You are on the right track with the use of colored rectangles. You will need to open the XY Chart, open the Appearance tab, and uncheck the Show Background box in the Chart Area and uncheck the Show Fill box in the Plot Area. This will enable the colored rectangle(s) to be seen through the XY Chart. You may need to adjust other settings or add elements to achieve the desired aesthetic.

How do i add the same mouselistener to many different instantiated objects?

This is for a card game.
The deck class instantiates 52 cards from the card class.
The game has a deck of cards. I am dealing each player their cards, the player is to be dealt 8 cards each of which should have a mouselistener.
How do I add the same mouselistener to each of the cards dealt.
This is how I have it so far but it only adds a mouselistener to the last card dealt.
     public void dealPlayerACard()
          taken = availableCards.dealCard();
          taken.showCard();
          taken.addMouseListener(this);
     public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent MEvent)
          playerHand.remove(taken);
          paintHand(playerHand);
          playerHand.repaint();
Any help would be appreciated

Yeh I have 52 card object in the deck. Theyre not individually named, they were instantiated in the deck class.
standardDeck.add(new Card(a, b, new ImageIcon(str), cardBack)); //creating and then adding the cards
So i draw one card at a time, and I had a mouselistener to that particular card. But the thing is, When the cards are clicked, some checking happens and if the move is legal, the card is added back into the deck and its mouselistener should be removed. This is because that card could then be added to the computers hand, and I dont want no player using the computer players cards.
The game deals the cards to players, players use the cards and then send them to the bottom of the deck, the deck is shuffled and then the game continues until a condition is met by either of the players.
So i dont understand how a loop solution would work here. My mind is blank at the moment, maybe im not understanding properly. I am new to java. So if you do know the answer, please tell it to me. Please dont wait for a lightbulb to appear above my head. ;)

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Hi I would like to know, how do I add a Hyperlink on Flash, that opens a PDF in adobe reader and not the web browser.

Yoh, what is FSCCommanr ? sorry man I am an absolute beginner in Flash. I tried the code:
/* Click to Go to Web Page
Clicking on the specified symbol instance loads the URL in a new browser window.
Instructions:
1. Replace http://www.adobe.com with the desired URL address.
Keep the quotation marks ("").
instance_name_here.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void {
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
this is the same code I used before and it opens a pdf file in a web browser, and it doesn't open an AutoCAD file.

How can i add new jcomponent to a frame?

hi.
how can we add new component to a frame? look at this code. Why when i click on button, nothing added to frame? event handled correctly and frame size changes but no button adds to frame.
private void convertButtonMouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
// TODO add your handling code here:
JButton newButton = new JButton("new");
getContentPane().add(newButton , BorderLayout.CENTER);
newButton.setVisible(true);
setSize(500, 500);
}

Don't forget to use the Code Formatting Tags so the posted code retains its original formatting. That is done by selecting the code and then clicking on the "Code" button above the question input area.
Well typically you wouldn't add a button to the Center of a BorderLayout. If you really want to do this you should be using a [Card Layout|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/TOC.html].
In general the code for adding/removing components should be:
panel.add(...)
panel.revalidate();
panel.repaint();

How can I add the listener to the CellRenderer

My class named NoteColumnRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer
and thhe getTableCellRendererComponent() returns JButton .
My question is how can I add MouseMotionListener to the JButton
or how can I add MouseMotionListener to the NoteColumnRenderer ?
The code below,and there is no effect
public class NoteColumnRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer {
public NoteColumnRenderer(boolean multiSelection) {
super();
System.out.println("b="+this.getListeners(MouseMotionListener.class).length);
this.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionListener(){
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
System.out.println("mouse+++++++");
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
System.out.println("mouse-------");
m_button.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionListener(){
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("mouse=====");
public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("mouse=======");
System.out.println("a="+this.getListeners(MouseMotionListener.class).length);
m_multiSelection = multiSelection;
if (m_multiSelection) {
     m_check = new JCheckBox();
m_check.setMargin(new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0));
m_check.setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.CENTER);
          } else
m_button.setMargin(new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0));
m_button.setSize(new Dimension(5, 5));
m_combobox = new JComboBox();
     } // IDColumnRenderer
     /** Mult-Selection flag */
     private boolean m_multiSelection;
     /** The Single-Selection renderer */
     private JButton m_button=new JButton();
     /* The Multi-Selection renderer */
     private JCheckBox m_check;
     private JComboBox m_combobox;
     protected void setValue(Object value) {
          if (m_multiSelection) {
               boolean sel = false;
               if (value == null)
     else if (value instanceof Boolean)
          sel = ((Boolean) value).booleanValue();
               else
          sel = value.toString().equals("Y");
               m_check.setSelected(sel);
          else
               if (value == null)
               else
     if(value.toString().length()>10)
m_button.setText(value.toString().substring(0,10)+"...");
                    else
                         m_button.setText(value.toString());
                    m_button.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
     public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value,
boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
          setValue(value);
          if (m_multiSelection)
               return m_check;
          else
               return m_button;
}

Listener can be added to a cell editor, not cell renderer.
Set relevent cess(s) to setEditable == true when you use your custom cell editor.

How can mc_instance listen for MouseEvent?

hello;
my_mc_instance.addEventListener( MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN ,
a_function ) ;
I do not understand why my_mc_instance even knows what a
mouseevent is; for instance, I have to know what a "knock on the
door" is before I can listen for it;
movieclips DO NOT inherit from: Mouse or MouseEvent or even
Event;
movieclips inherit from:
MovieClip --> Sprite --> DisplayObjectContainer -->
InteractiveObject --> DisplayObject --> EventDispatcher
--> Object
so how do they even know what a MouseEvent is?
it would seem to me that trying to add a mouseevent listener
to my_mc_instance would never fire since movieclips do not inherit
any mouse-related stuff;
furthermore, according to MovieClip.as, MovieClip class
already has methods that are apparently firing for the mouseevents:
ActionScript Code:
function onMouseDown():Void;
function onMouseMove():Void;
function onMouseUp():Void;
function onPress():Void;
function onRelease():Void;
function onReleaseOutside():Void;
function onRollOut():Void;
function onRollOver():Void; ...
which makes me wonder why it is even necessary to add
mouse-related listeners to an mc;
any thoughts?
thanks
dsdsdsdsd

Hey,
The reason movie clips dispatch mouse events is because movie
clips inherit from InteractiveObject. All InteractiveObjects
dispatch mouse events, so naturally, movie clips dispatch mouse
events.
For an object to be able to dispatch events, it doesn't have
to inherit from the specific event class (MouseEvent class), just
another class that dispatches those events (InteractiveObject).
The script you included contains methods from AS2. You can't
use them in AS3, so the only way to trigger anything with the mouse
is to add event listeners.

How do I add URI web link with custom tooltip like "CLICK HERE TO UPDATE" instead of URI web link in tooltip.

How do I add URI web link with custom tooltip like "CLICK HERE TO UPDATE" instead of URI web link in tooltip.

You've probably found an answer to this by now, but I think this has been addressed in another forum -- The link below suggested using a button and adding the tooltip to the button.
