How to create elastic effect on line

Hi guys,
i am working on an application that i plan to use as an Lightweight IDE.
This is a small project that i just started.
My question ..
i need to create an elasticity effect... like a 'line streching' effect that can be seen in one of the IDE's called BLUEJ .
The on 'lt click' is pressed mouse pointer can strech a line and when the 'lt click' is left a line is drawn.
im using JInternalFrame on JDesktopPane. Is it possibe to do so.
All help will be appreciated
Regards
Naren

Maybe something along the lines of detecting mouse dragged with a MouseListener, saving the origin of the mouse click and then keep drawing a line from the origin to the current location of the mouse. Probably by calling repaint() and then override the paintComponent() method to draw the line.

  • How to create "Fisheye Effect" with Photoshop 10, on a Mac computer

    How to create "Fisheye effect" with Photoshop 10 on a Mac computer?

    One way : use the filter : correct camera distortion. Move the remove distortion slider towards left (barrel distortion)
    Or, first increase the canvas size to a square format bigger than the larger dimension of the image and play with the filter : distort, spherize.

    >> Unfortunately I really need to form a dynamic query in a table valued function on the SQL SERVER. I have another tabled valued function that needs something returned as a table in order to further join the data. I am not allowed to use Stored

    You do know that real SQL programmers hate the proprietary nightmare of tabled valued functions?  This is how you procedural programmers avoid learning set-oriented declarative and functional programming. 
    Your mindset wants to write to a scratch tape or disk file (aka “tabled valued function result table”) just like you did BASIC, FORTRAN or COBOL. QL programmers do not have to materialize their data. We can use VIEW or a drive table as well as a base table. 
    >> Plus, there are occasions where I don't want to pass in a field [sic: columns are not fields] parameter or need to change a parameter list such that I don't wish the table function to filter by a particular field [sic] or other setting. <<
    What you want is a magical “Automobiles, Squids and Lady Gaga” function. An SQL programmer might write a complex VIEW then do simpler SELECTs off it. 
    >> My application pushes the WHERE clause from EXCEL to SQL to do the hard work as EXCEL is not the application in which I want to process the SQL statement and pass it via ODBC. I cannot run macros in Excel on the web.<< 
    This is a crazy language system. Usually we fetch data in SQL and then pass it to a math package, report writer, etc. We never keep logic (aka WHERE clauses) outside the database. 
    >> I am bummed about the fact that this feature doesn't work. It will up my server management costs to maintain unique tabular based functions based on WHERE clause query <<
    So stop writing those “tabular based functions”, change your mindset and start learning SQL and do it right.

  • How to create a "traveling route" line on a map from point A to point B!

    Can someone explained or show me how I to create a clip (it will have a background map of Europe) depicting a “traveling route” line from point A to point B. The “traveling route” line I would like to display follows a Bezier curve path; it would start from point A (as a “dash”) and progressively the dash line lengthens until it reaches point B.
    To expand my request further - can one add a plane or ship icon (image) as the start “header” (starting from point A), move along the Bezier curve path and spits out the trailing “dashes” to form the “traveling route” line?
    I have seen this done on occasions, but I’m unable to create such clip. You help is appreciated.

  • Alv - how to create a broader header line?

    I'm using the 'TOP_OF_PAGE' parameter within 'AVL_GRID_DISPLAY' FM in connection with 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE' to create a Header Line for the List-display.
    My Problem is, that I really need to get a broader header with approx. 120 characters but the only structure, 'REUSE_ALV_COMMENTARY_WRITE' seems to allow is 'slis_listheader' which is only three fields broad with 80 characters.
    I need a line with 6 fields and 120 to 150 characters - how can i possibly submit that to the function module, or somehow different to 'TOP_OF_PAGE'...?
    Thanks, Clemens

    Clemens
    I think you will have to format the header yourself.
    The problem is that you need to have a pointer to the document (cl_dd_document class) so you can modify it as you want. The only way I found is to use I_CALLBACK_HTML_TOP_OF_PAGE parameter when you call REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
    Unortunately, the form specified in I_CALLBACK_TOP_OF_PAGE parameter for REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY FM is not being called with any parameters. Therefore can't be used to create your heading.
    Now, you need to call your FM like this:
      CALL FUNCTION 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY'
           EXPORTING
                I_CALLBACK_HTML_TOP_OF_PAGE = 'TOP_OF_PAGE1'
    ...other parameters....
    then you will need to create that FORM:
    FORM TOP_OF_PAGE1 USING p_doc type ref to cl_dd_document.
    DATA: mytoptext(255) TYPE C.
    CONCATENATE 'This is my very long text. Probably about 140 chars long'
      'or more just to check if it all appears as is. Hopefully with a bit'
      'of luck we might have some success here.'
      into mytoptext separated by space.
    CALL METHOD p_doc->new_line.
    CALL METHOD p_doc->add_text
        EXPORTING text  = mytoptext.
    ENDFORM.
    I advise that you have a look on the original SAP FM (REUSE_ALV_GRID_COMMENTARY_SET), which is used to format your commentary (through memorised parameter DYNDOS_FOR_ALV) and based on that you can make your heading.
    If you can't use I_CALLBACK_HTML_TOP_OF_PAGE parameter then probably defining your own grid is a solution (a bit longer to implement, though).
    Hope this helps.

  • How to create tab in two lines

    Greetings,
    Created set of tabs. but they are displaying in a single line e.g Orientation Sales Day. it is apperaing in a single line and i want to display in two lines like
    "Orientation
    Sales Day"
    How i will achive this target ?
    Guide pls

    Hi,
    Looking at your example at http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=18686:1:561273670565801::::: posted on {thread:id=2423720}.
    /i/themes/theme_1/images/bg-tabs-r.gif image is only 35 pixel tall, so you will need to increase the height of this image.
    Similarly, you will need to increase the heights of /i/themes/theme_1/images/bg-tabs-current.gif and /i/themes/theme_1/images/bg-tabs-non-current.gif . Maybe you have to increase the height to 80 or 90 pixels. It is not going to look good on the page.
    Get yourself FF/Firebug or some such tool to inspect the HTML DOM and you will be able to see for yourself that the label of the tab is indeed wrapping with &lt;br /> , its just that the images ( and a result the display area) are not big enough to show the complete label.
    Cheers,

  • How to create 'Headset' effect (pilots talking)

    Please listen to the sound of the pilots talking in this video over their headsets.
    /https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mN8R6ZkrAjA&feature=youtu.be
    I'm trying to create a filter to mimic the sound of pilots talking over the headsets.
    Anyone know what settings I would use?
    I've tried the "Telephone receiver" and "answering machine" filters that come with Audition, but they just don't sound the same.
    Thanks!

    I have an Audition Template to mimic the effect of secured radio comms with noise ducking/driving, using native Audition Filters,  (PM if you want a copy of it, as I can't seem to be able to upload it here).
    Radio comms basically involve mono, bitcrushing, noise and signal issues.  I've consider all tools needed as a baseline.  You don't have to use them all.  New communications with strong signals will sound clear and need only subtle tweaking, while older or weaker signals can have more aggressive filter settings.  The real trick is both including and driving the noise introduced in system.
    Place the voice in Voice track 1.
    Generate a file of white noise for track 2 (Filters - Generate Noise)
    The plugin chain uses Native Audition filters.
    Voice track:
    First we add gain, if needed.
    Second, we turn stereo track to Mono.
    Then we run the Adaptive Noise filter with the settings (top slider to bottom) 32, 80, 7, 20, 20, 20, 0.  This creates a gating effect and produces gaps.
    Then we EQ, to create a lo-fi effect.  Tweak to your taste.
    Then we run the tube-modeled compressor.  Tweak to your taste.
    Finally we add a Notch filter, selecting the 200 Hz and Octaves drop down setting to get that high end chirp.
    Noise Track
    In the Noise track, we add an amplify filter.  A high gain will make the noise more dominate, and lower will make the voice dominate.
    We also have a Dynamics Processing plugin to be driven by the Vocals via side-chain.  On the settings tab, attack and release times must be quick (15ms - 84ms), and link the gain and level channels.
    Master
    We again add an amplifier to gain the overall mix
    A post EQ, tweak to your liking.
    A multiband compressor
    A hard limiter
    Play around with the file.  Turn off the effects and then add each one to see how they apply.
    Voice track settings:
    Noise track settings:
    Master Track Settings:
    Enjoy.
