  • How to add image in the button Objects.

    Dear All,
    I need image in the button object. I don't know whether it is possible or not.
    If anyone know the idea for solving this problem Please siggest me.
    Thank you
    saroj neupane

    You cannot put an image on a button put you can have an image then create a clear button that you can put over top of the image. Send the image to the background then set the background fill of the button to none. This will make the button transparent. You may need to play with the borders of both obejcts to get the effect you want.

  • How to add canvas to the background of a form in j2me

    I am new to j2me. I am developing a mobile application in j2me. Is there a way of adding a canvas object to the background of a form? I tried searching in net with few people suggesting to use "jmepolish". I have no idea what jmepolish is..Is there a way to do this with normal j2me classes?

    Short answer: You can't. There are two types of Displayables (javax.microedition.lcdui.Displayable): Screen items and the Canvas item.
    You have no control of the appearance of Screen items: Alert, Form, List, TextBox. The implementation(phone maker) decided the appearance of those items. You can only alter the appearance of Canvas and GameCanvas.
    If you want to change the appearance of a Form you should check out something like LWUIT or J2ME Polish.

  • How do you set an image into the background of a JPanel or JFrame?

    How do you set an image into the background of a JPanel or JFrame?

    Something like this, Ive thrown in an ImageIcon on a
    button too for good measure.
    import java.awt.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class JFrameImage extends JFrame {
    public JFrameImage() {
    Container c    = getContentPane();
    JPanel panel = new JPanel(){
                 public void paintComponent(Graphics g)     {
    ImageIcon img = new
    = new ImageIcon("background.jpg");
                      g.drawImage(img.getImage(), 0, 0, null);
                      super.paintComponent(g);
            panel.setOpaque(false);
    ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon("onButton.jpg");
    JButton button = new JButton(icon);
    panel.add(button);
    c.add(panel);
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    JFrameImage frame = new JFrameImage();
    frame.setSize(200,200);
    frame.setVisible(true);
    Going totally fancy pants
    ImageIcon bigImage = new ImageIcon(bgImage.getImage().getScaledInstance(getWidth(), getHeight(),Image.SCALE_REPLICATE));
    g.drawImage(bigImage.getImage(), 0, 0, this); Will scale the image to the size of the panel
    whereas
    for (int y = 0; y  < getHeight(); y = y + image.getHeight(null))
    for (int x = 0; x< getWidth(); x = x + image.getWidth(null))
    g.drawImage(image, x, y, this); Will give a tiled effect
    Try tiling with an animated gif and bring your processor to a standstill.

  • I saw Corey Barker do a demo where he extracted an image from the background, then cleaned up the edge with a process that allowed him to de-fringe it.  I can't remember how he did it. And I can't find it.  Help!

    I saw Corey Barker do a demo a few weeks ago where he extracted an image from the background, then used a technique I was not familiar with to clean it up. You selected the area, then did something that involved going either to edit or select, then there was a dialog box that allowed you to dial it in, depending on the color background you were removing.  I can't find this anywhere. Can't remember.  It's driving me crazy!  If someone can help me find this, I would be very glad and grateful. Thanks!  Laura

    In technical support, sometimes you have to make educated guesses. I'm sorry that you were offended.
    iTunes does prompt when it is going to erase a device, and the message is clear.
    She said in her message that she was able to successfully sync the old ipad. This indicated to me that itunes wiping the data was not an issue, because either it had been setup at the apple store (in which case it doesn't actually wipe the ipad despite saying it will*) (*based on a single case I saw), or because the itunes media folder was migrated.
    Furthermore, my solution was to tell her how to backup her ipad (by either doing it manually, or as a last resort, by deleting the corrupt backup -- that she couldn't access anyway.)
    I got that last part of the instructions from the "Taking Control of your iphone" book which I found samples of when I did a google search for "corrupted backup itunes".
    She marked this as a solution, so it worked for her.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the quick response.
    The problem is that when I keep the logo as a watermark, the pdf is not adjusting itself to include the logo as header.
    But if I add a header text via Tools -> Headers and Footers, the pdf is adjusting itself so that the header text is at the beginning , not overlapping with the contents of pdf.
    But while using logo as watermark, some times overlapping of the pdf contents and logo is happening.
    Is there any way to add a logo in the Header and Footer via the option in Tools -> Headers and Footers
    Thanks,
    Vidhya

  • How to add Image dynamically in Webdynpro ABAP

    Hi Experts,
    How to add Image dynamically in Webdynpro ABAP.
    My requirement is i maintain all the images in a table.
    image source has to pick the table URl dynamically and display.
    is that possible in webdynpro?
    and also please give the suggesion,
    without using MIME objects is that anyway to get images?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regrads,
    Jeyanthi

    Hi,
      are those icons wou want to display then. he following code will be useful.
    data : lo_IMG type ref to CL_WD_IMAGE.
    LO_IMG = cl_wd_IMAGE=>new_IMAGE( id = img_id SOURCE = 'ICON_BW_APD_TARGET' tooltip = sts_tltp ).
    lo_cont->add_child( the_child = lo_img ).
    here lo_cont is the container where you want to add the image dynamically and source is the attribiute through which you can change the ICON image. this thing you can getit from data base table and change accordingly.

  • How to add images to my PDF?

    Hi there
    I am wanting to know how to add images/photos to my PDF theta needs to be sent & signed to my supervisor?

    Hi Helen,
    You'll find the Add Image tool in the Content Editing pane of the Tools panel:
    If you don't see it there, make sure that you're using Acrobat, and not Adobe Reader, as these editing tools are unique to Acrobat.
    Best,

  • How to add image in ejb web service

    Hello Community,
    I am writing web service to create a PDF file using itext API. In PDF file i want to add an image.
    Can someone please tell that , how can i add image(jpeg, png , etc.) to an ejb web service?

    Hi,
    Please check the below code which i used to add image to the header using iText . Similarly you can add image directly to the document also as a element.
    Adding image as Header:
    httpServletRequest = request.getServletRequest();
    domainURL=httpServletRequest.getScheme()+"://"+httpServletRequest.getServerName();
    imgLogo=domainURL+request.getWebResourcePath()+"/images/XXXX.jpg";
    image =Image.getInstance(imgLogo);
    image.scalePercent(22);// As per you need
    chunk = new Chunk(image, 0, -20);
    HeaderFooter header_pdf = new HeaderFooter(new Phrase(chunk), false); // here i have added image as header
    header_pdf.disableBorderSide(0);
    header_pdf.setAlignment(Element.ALIGN_CENTER);
    header_pdf.setBorder(0);
    document.setHeader(header_pdf);
    (or)
    Adding Image a Element:
    httpServletRequest = request.getServletRequest();
    domainURL=httpServletRequest.getScheme()+"://"+httpServletRequest.getServerName();
    imgLogo=domainURL+request.getWebResourcePath()+"/images/XXXX.jpg";
    image =Image.getInstance(imgLogo);
    image.scalePercent(22);
    document.add(image);
