How to add tooltip to jframe title?

hi all
does anyone knows how can i set tooltip for jframe title?
thanks

Since it's a slow Saturday and I'm in a good mood...import darrylbu.util.SwingUtils;
import javax.swing.*;
public class FrameTitleToolTip {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
      SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
         @Override
         public void run() {
            new FrameTitleToolTip().makeUI();
   public void makeUI() {
      JFrame frame = new JFrame();
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
      frame.setSize(400, 400);
      for (JComponent component : SwingUtils.getDescendantsOfType(JComponent.class,
            frame)) {
         if (component.getClass().getName().contains("MetalTitlePane")) {
            component.setToolTipText("Tooltip for frame title bar");
            break;
      frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
      frame.setVisible(true);
}You can get the SwingUtils class [_here_|http://tips4java.wordpress.com/2008/11/13/swing-utils/]

How to add tooltip to images?

How to add tooltips to images?

OK, here is a more robust, more generic (any node) implementation.
It would be nice if I could find a way to automatically insert the tooltips in the scene, but at time of node with tooltip creation, scene doesn't exist yet... Should have a post-layout event, perhaps. Or I can do that once on the onMouseEntered event, but then I have to find a way to get the scene holding a given node. Tried to iterate on Parents, but I can't cast a Parent to a Scene?
Anyway, here is the new code:
Tooltip.fx
public class Tooltip extends CustomNode
public var text: String;
public var fill: Paint = Color.web('#EEFF00');
public var stroke: Paint = Color.GREEN;
var label: Label; // Make public to access textOverrun, textWrap, etc.?
var back: Rectangle;
override function create(): Node
    label = Label
      text: text
    back = Rectangle
      x: -2, y: -1
      width: label.width + 4
      height: label.height + 2
      fill:   fill
      stroke: stroke
    Group
      content: [ back, label ]
init
    visible = false;
    layoutInfo.managed = false;
WithTooltip.fx
public mixin class WithTooltip
/** The tooltip to display. */
public var tooltip: Tooltip;
// We display the tooltip after a while being over the node
var tooltipTL = Timeline
    keyFrames: KeyFrame
      time: 750ms
      action: function ()
//~         println("visible {%.0f tooltip.boundsInParent.minX} {%.0f tooltip.boundsInParent.minY}");
        tooltip.visible = true;
var baseMouseMoved;
var baseMouseEntered;
var baseMouseExited;
postinit
    var tooltipNode = this as Node;
    baseMouseMoved = tooltipNode.onMouseMoved;
    tooltipNode.onMouseMoved = function (evt: MouseEvent): Void
      if (not tooltip.visible)
        tooltip.translateX = evt.sceneX;
        tooltip.translateY = evt.sceneY - 20;
      baseMouseMoved(evt);
    baseMouseEntered = tooltipNode.onMouseEntered;
    tooltipNode.onMouseEntered = function (evt: MouseEvent): Void
//~       println("onMouseEntered: {%.0f evt.sceneX} {%.0f evt.sceneY}");
      tooltipTL.playFromStart();
      baseMouseEntered(evt);
    baseMouseExited = tooltipNode.onMouseExited;
    tooltipNode.onMouseExited = function (evt: MouseEvent): Void
//~       println("onMouseExited");
      tooltipTL.stop();
      tooltip.visible = false;
      baseMouseExited(evt);
SomeStage.fx
class ImageWithTooltip extends ImageView, WithTooltip
var earthTT = Tooltip { text: "Mother Earth" }
var earth = ImageWithTooltip
     image: Image { url: "{__DIR__}earth.png" }
     tooltip: earthTT;
var mapTT = Tooltip { text: "General map of France" }
var map = ImageWithTooltip
     image: Image { url: "{__DIR__}map.jpg", width: 200, preserveRatio: true }

// Put the ImageWithTooltip nodes in layout if needed, put the Tooltip nodes at the end of the scene (on top, out of any layout).

How to add src, alt and title tags to a PS generated Web Photo Gallery

I do some web design and need to add some tags to a web photo gallery created by Photoshop. Maybe this question should be directed to the GoLive / Dreamweaver Forum but since the gallery was created in PS I thought I'd start here.
I need to add src, alt and title tags to the images in the web gallery. Normally this is as simple as working on the code in the html page in which the image sits but the PS gallery doesn't seem to be that simple.
Can anyone tell me exactly how, and which files I need to work on, to add these tags to each of my 42 gallery images?
Thanks.
John.

You can't do it in Photoshop.
You can open the pages in a text editor adn easily ad any tags you want. They are simply html pages.
If you really want to, you can use Dreamweaver or Golive. Using a text editor is generally faster and easier because you can just copy/paste between the files and not have to worry about code rewriting in the WYSIWYG applications. Don't believe the GoLive/Dreamweaver hype about "round trip code" they both will alter code.

Add image to JFrame title?

Hi, everybody
Can i add a image to JFrame title by side right system menu?
Thanks for your advice

Prior to JDK 1.4 you can't without using native code.
This is because the frame's title is displayed by the native windowing system.
All you could do is use JWindow instead of JFrame and draw the decorations yourself completely. This can have other disadvantages besides the amount of work, like for example the window not showing up in the task bar on Windows systems.
Using Merlin (1.4, currently in Beta) you can tell the frame to manage the title from the Java side using JFrame.setLookAndFeelDecorated(true).
In that case the title bar is a subclass of JPanel (class name is called something like BasicTitlePaneUI, look it up yourself) and you could add anything you like to it.
Hope it helps, Stephen

How to add Field in Page Title or repeat header on each print page.

Hi Guys,
We are using Application Express 4.1.0.00.32 on Wondows XP and Oracle version is 10g.
I've created a report in APEX and the user is insisting on putting a header on each page in PRINT of the report which should contain the "from date" and "to date", which are present on the select criteria on top.
Now I'm wondering, how can I implement this request?
Can I somehow add from_date and to_date items in Title so that when they print the report, they'll see the from and to dates in the title?
Or is there someother way to do this.
The report is an interactive report with a control break and user prints the report with file->print.
Please help me. I'd really appreciate your help.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Guys,
Nobody responded, so seems like there is no soluion for this in APEX.

Add a Button in JFrame Title Bar

How can I add a button in JFrame Title Bar. I want to put on more button for docking after the closing button in the title bar.

if you use JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true) then you can do it by extending the JRootPaneUI class of the L&F (the default is the metal L&F). that is not a easy task but if you want take a look at BasicRootPaneUI, there you will have to point it to a new TitlePane which you will have to create. to load all this you must use the UIManager class. if you need more explaination try reading on look and feel and customizing it.

HT2523 How do I add shadow to the title of a document while in Pages? For instance: NEW YEAR'S NEEDS. I'm also at a loss to know how to create a folder for certain types of documents such as "Sermons" or "Lessons."

How do I add shadow to a title, such as, NEW YEAR'S NEEDS, while in Pages? I also don't know how to set a new folder for documents of the same type such as, "Sermons," or "Lessons." Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Donnie

Yes, I very well may be over thinking this, but I tried duplicating and moving it, but the text distorts slightly, which can be mostly remedied by rotating it on the x-axis, although the light is still off. And the shadows and reflections are not visible - this is pic1... In pic2, I used "rotate 3d object" with the green and red arrows, instead of just sliding it up the y-axis using the coordinates in the scene tab. Using the green and red arrows to move the text preserved the reflections but the shadows now aren't visible. It was also hard to align the text perfectly in scenario 2. Thanks for the help

How can add captions or title to a picture now that iPhoto doesn't work after updating to iOS 8.

I Have updated to iOS 8 and iPhoto is dismissed. How can add a caption /title (not in the image) like I was used with iPhoto? Photos has not this feature.
please, could anyone help me. I'm a real beginner. Thanks,

The photos.app does not (yet) have the option to add captions or tags. It is not possible right now. You can however search for the captions you added previously using the search field. You can also search for album names. So, as a work-around, put photos that should have the same caption into an album with a name like the caption.
See: Migrating from iPhoto for iOS to Photos on iOS 8
You may want to send feedback to Apple, that captions and tags are essential and need to be added in an update. Use this form: Apple - iPhoto - Feedback

How to add a Title (slide? screen?) BEFORE the video track

Hello,
I'm very new to Adobe Premiere Pro and I'm trying to figure out how to add a title to my project but I don't want the title on the start of the video in the sequence. I'd like to add it to a black screen, maybe with some transition effects, that will play prior to the video starting. Do I need to create a black image in CS and add it as a still and just add the title to the still which I can position before the video/audio track A starts?
I'm hoping that there's something I can do right within Premiere that will give me a place to put the title before my video starts. I didn't see an option to add a blank slide or something to that effect that I can add title to.
thanks for your assistance!
The more I learn the more excited I get, this software is great.

Thanks for the link.. like I said in my post, I'm brand new to the software and I've been watching and following guides for hours. Time is not on my side, I have a project that must be done by the end of this week and I have very limited time after work.
So when I have the head at the begining of my main track and click INSERT in the source monitor window it inserts a duplicate of the entire video so I have TWO videos in my sequence. This is clearly not what I'm wanting so I'm assuming that there's something I'm missing. I've searched google but don't see anything.
I'm just looking to add a black, blank screen that I can add a title to before my video begins. I realize this may be rudamentary to season vets but as I said, I'm very new and trying to learn this all quickly and I would really appreciate if someone could point me directly to some information about it. I'm not afraid to read and learn, hell I love it, but I'm pressed for time so someone just telling me, "go learn the software" with a link to a huge FAQ, doesn't really help me.
I've already learned a ton from some great guides but I have yet to have anyone indicate how to add extra footage (be it a still or blank video) directly from Premiere Pro.
Thank you all for your time!
EDIT: I think I figured it out... I just bumped the start of the main track up about 10 seconds and I added new item "Black Screen" right in front of it. I will add the title to this. Thanks all.
