How to customize a javafx.ext.swing.Panel

Seid gegrüsst
I want to customize a javafx.ext.Panel for a little testapplication. It's not possible to use something else, because the customized Panel should be in a ScrollPane.
How ever, in ordinary java I simply override the public void paint(Graphics g) method and place my drawing routine into it.
Is there a similar way in javafx to customize a Panel?

Hi.
To answer your question: No.
When you look into the sources of javafx.ext.swing:
AbstractPanel (the base class for Panel) does not extend JPanel.
Instead, it has an attribute of type JPanelImpl (basically a javax.swing.JPanel).
So there is no chance to influence the paint method's behaviour in the Panel class.
The only possibility would be to extend the original JPanelImpl (overriding its paint method) and to rewrite AbstractPanel and Panel.

Jens

Variable binding with javafx.ext.swing.SwingSlider

My first javafx program consists of a slider and a text box, the text box displays the current value of the slider. The problem is the text box does not display anything when the program just starts up, but only gets populated once I change the value of the slider. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Here is the code:
import javafx.scene.control.*;
import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.stage.*;
import javafx.ext.swing.*;
import javafx.scene.layout.*;
var BPMSlider = SwingSlider {
    minimum: 10
    maximum: 250
    value: 60
}; //BPMSlider
var BPM = bind "{BPMSlider.value}";
var BPMDisplay = TextBox {
     text: bind BPM
    columns: 3
}; //BPMDisplay;
Stage {
    title: "Slider";
    width: 1000
    height: 500
    visible: true
   // Set the scene
   scene:
       Scene {
       content:
           HBox{ spacing: 10 content:[ BPMSlider, BPMDisplay ] }
       } // Scene
}Thanks!

Hi,
I don't know how to solve it with binding values, but I managed to solve it with temporary int value which contains Slider.value.
If any one can help us with solving this binding value we are waiting for answer.
Here is the code:
package slider;
import javafx.ext.swing.*;
import javafx.scene.*;
import javafx.scene.control.*;
import javafx.scene.input.MouseEvent;
import javafx.scene.layout.*;
import javafx.stage.*;
var tempSliderVal:Integer = 60; // temp BPMSlider value
var BPMSlider = SwingSlider {
    minimum: 10;
    maximum: 250;
    value: bind tempSliderVal with inverse;
    onMouseDragged: function (e:MouseEvent) {
        BPMDisplay.text = tempSliderVal.toString();
    onMouseClicked: function (e:MouseEvent) {
        BPMDisplay.text = tempSliderVal.toString();
}; //BPMSlider
var BPMDisplay = TextBox {
     text: tempSliderVal.toString();
    columns: 3;
}; //BPMDisplay;
Stage {
    title: "Slider";
    width: 1000;
    height: 500;
    visible: true;
    // Set the scene
    scene: Scene {
        content: HBox{
            spacing: 10;
            content:[ BPMSlider, BPMDisplay ];
    } // Scene
}

Import javafx.ext.swing.SwingToggleGroup not found in the classpath

I am trying to run the example here
Desktop profile
http://java.sun.com/javafx/1/tutorials/ui/layout/index.html
but
import javafx.ext.swing.SwingToggleGroup;
import javafx.ext.swing.SwingRadioButton;
here i am having error because
javafx.ext is not found in my classpath, I am using Netbeans 6.5

While this shouldn't cause that error, your post is missing a final curly bracket.
Adding that, it compiles ok in Windows.

Javafx.ext.swing.* unable to import this package in netbeans 6.5

Hi
(1) I am not able to get the above package working in Netbeans 6.5. Do I need to install separate plugin to get it?
When I try to import any swing component, I get error. Any solution to this?
I tried update the JavaFX plugin, but no positive results. I am using netbeans-6_5-javafx-1_1-windows.
(2) Is this package supported in mobile devices?
Regards

There are some swing components written on JavaFX on page [Custom Components|http://jfx.wikia.com/wiki/SwingComponents#Custom_Components]
Well, the idea is to avoid the use of Swing, precisely, since it is not available in the Mobile profile.
If you mean the Custom Components at the bottom of the page, I think:
- They should be moved to another page (and linked from this page) as they don't belong to SwingComponents: it is confusing;
- No offense intended, but they are simplistic (everybody has done such "custom button") and inflexible (hard-coded parameter);
- Despite previous line, they are nice examples, good samples for beginners. :-) Hey, at least that's a starting point (and better than nothing).

You can provide visual feedback of clicking.
Here is a primitive (crude!), naive native button, as an example of such effect. I wanted to make it look like it was physically pressed.
public class NativeButton extends CustomNode
var arcSize: Number;
var message: String;
var width: Number;
var height: Number;
var hole: Rectangle;
public var displacement: Number;
override protected function create(): Node
    arcSize = height / 5.0;
    displacement = 3;
    hole = Rectangle
      x: 0, y: 0
      width: width
      height: height
      arcWidth: arcSize, arcHeight: arcSize
      fill: Color.BLACK
    clip = hole;
    Group
      content:
        hole
        Rectangle
          x: 0, y: 0
          width: width
          height: height
          arcWidth: arcSize, arcHeight: arcSize

              Stop { offset: 1.0, color: Color.BLUE }
          onMousePressed: ShowPressed
          onMouseReleased: ShowReleased
        Rectangle
          x: height / 9.0, y: height / 9.0
          width: width - 2 * height / 9.0
          height: height * 7 / 9.0
          arcWidth: arcSize, arcHeight: arcSize
          fill: LinearGradient
            startX: 0.0, startY: 0.0, endX: 0.0, endY: 1.0
            proportional: true
            stops:

          content: message
          fill: Color.YELLOW
          font: Font.font(null, FontWeight.BOLD, 36);
function ShowPressed(e: MouseEvent): Void
    this.translateX = this.translateY = displacement;
    hole.translateX = hole.translateY = -displacement;
//~     println("Clicked {this}");
function ShowReleased(e: MouseEvent): Void
    this.translateX = this.translateY = 0;
    hole.translateX = hole.translateY = 0;
//~     println("Released");
function run()
def BASE_SIZE = 300;
Stage
title: "Native JavaFX Button"
scene: Scene
    width: BASE_SIZE
    height: BASE_SIZE
    fill:   Color.web('#00BABE')
    content:
      Group

        translateY: 20
        content:
          NativeButton { message: "Click Me", width: 200, height: 50 }
}You can add effects, do something on hovering, etc.

Fxd format and ext.swing

I am trying to load a fxd file from an url (in fact from an servlet) and add the loaded node to my stage. This to create a part of the ui which is very dynamic based on configuration.
This works fine when I try to a, e.g., a Text node :
Group {
    content: [
        Text {
                font: Font {
                    size: 24
                x: 20,
                y: 30
                content: "HelloWorld ------"
}But when I try to add a swingbutton in the same way it gives me an error:
Type 'SwingButton' not found. Is it not possible to include swing components into the fxd file format ? If that is the case, is there any other solution except building my own implementation (e..g. with json)
Kind regards,
Marco Laponder

I tried your suggestion by sepcifying the full name :
Group {
    content: [
        javafx.ext.swing.SwingButton {
                text: "Button"
}But this results in the following exception:

How to: Customize Panel End Marks in Photoshop Lightroom 2 and 3

Hello everyone,
I thought I would share with you this video showing how to customize Panel End Marks in Lightroom 2 and 3.
I hope you enjoy. Here is the link:
http://photoshoplightroombridge.co.uk/?p=428

"Show your designs" via panel end marks??? Maybe that's a linguistic error and you mean "branding". If not, it's drivel. Panel end marks can be handy for reminders - for example what your ratings mean - but even that's a stretch.
Anyway, this forum is not for advertising one's tutorials, even if they are on a near-useless feature that's about as newsworthy as Stonehenge.

Hi nedler1,
Please try the following steps to display the cover sheet and replace it with custom one:
How to change a portfolio’s initial view setting to show the cover sheet (and hide the contents):
Open a PDF portfolio and run the following JS in the console:
this.collection.initialView = 'Hidden';
Save the portfolio, close and re-open.
The cover sheet will now be displayed when opening the portfolio.
Updating the cover sheet
Also, most likely if you want the coversheet displayed when opening the portfolio, and do not want the default cover sheet:
Here are the steps to replace the default cover sheet:
Open the Portfolio.
Perform a View > Portfolio > cover sheet to open the cover sheet.
Open the Pages panel for the cover sheet.
Right click on the cover sheet page in the pages panel, select “Replace Pages”.
Replace the cover sheet page with the desired cover from a page in another pdf.
Save the portfolio.

PDF form into a Java Swing Panel

Hi All,
we have generated a form with LiveCycle Design, and now we are thinking to view and navigate this PDF form into a Java Swing Panel.
Anybody have try this? Do we need to specify some special thing during the generation of the form with LiveCycle Design?
I hope not to be OT here.
Thanks in advance for any reply.
P.

I have not done this but I can assure you that there is nothing in Designer to do with this. At that point it is a PDF so how woudl you add any other PDF to your swing panel?

How to customize the JTable (fonts, colors)

Hi,
I wonder how to customize the font, font style and color of a JTable? Shell I make my own renderer for it, or even the Look&Feel? I hope there is an easier way to do it... Something like CSS for HTML.
I would appreciate some links to the sample code or tutorial as well.
Best regards,
Martin

Try making your own cell renderer.
MyCellRenderer implements javax.swing.table.TableCellRenderer{
public MyCellRenderer() {
public java.awt.Component getTableCellRendererComponent(javax.swing.JTable jTable, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int col) {
//make a JLabel (you can use html just by setting it as text for the JLabel)
return JLabel;
then just call
myJTable.setDefaultCellRenderer(new MyCellRenderer());

How to display a javafx window from a java program?

hello,
I found in the help how to call a java class from a javafx class, but how can I do the opposite : make a javafx window visible and active from a java class (main method e.g.)?
thank you,
olivier.

I haven't studied the topic, but I stumbled upon a good number of threads and blog articles on how to use JavaFX in Swing...
Basically it is hackish (might depend on current implementation, thus break on new releases) because Sun didn't designed it for this task.

Newbie qs. JavaFx vs Swing?

I looked through the JavaFx introduction and samples, but wish there could be clarification of the following which other developers too might wonder about:
Should I write my app in Swing or Java Fx - what considerations should guide my choice?
It seems that Fx is an alternative or competitor to applets or Google Web toolkit or Flash.
Can you access the file system, work offline?
thanks,
Anil

Yes you're right in that there are many considerations that involved in choosing between JavaFX or Swing (or some other technology) and for the most part a lot of it is just going to come down to opinions rather than hard and fast rules.
First of all, JavaFX applications whether they are deployed as Applets, via Web Start, or with a standalone installer can access the file system, work offline, open sockets etc. The restriction is that if deployed as an Applet or via Web Start the application has to be "signed" and the user has to accept the signed application (click "Yes" on a security warning).
Having said that even unsigned Applets/WebStart applications do have limited access to the file system (a private sandbox) and can open connections back to their originating server. Applets used to be restricted to running in the browser but now they can be dragged out of the browser and "installed" with a shortcut on the users system. The following link provides a good starting point for more information
[http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/guides/jweb/index.html]
Always remember that JavaFX sits on top of Java and often leverages tools, products and technologies to achieve tasks.
In terms of Swing vs JavaFX some of the things you might want to consider are:
Tolerance towards new technologies. Is you organisation able to take something "cutting-edge" and is prepared to work around problems or limitations. Or are the stakeholders in the project so risk-adverse that a more mainstream approach would be better.
Willingness to write code. At this stage you will find that Swing has far more components (widgets) available to it, you can somewhat easily reuse Swing components within JavaFX application but you will need to write and maintain extra code to do so. Also there are other gaps in JavaFX where you'll probably need to write extra code like serialization or dealing with medium-complex event handling (action frameworks). More code appears to have more cost but sometimes you also get the benefit of a better fit to your problem.
But then on the other hand JavaFX is a language dedicated to writing GUIs so you can also argue that even with the current relative immaturity having support within the language for "bind" will result in less code than the the same application written in Swing.
What's the lifespan of this project for you organisation? A short-term one-off project might justify the use of JavaFX through it being not strategic to your organisation. But then on the other hand a large long-term project might also justify the use of JavaFX because it's easier to absorb specialists filling in the gaps of JavaFX in a larger team and also you might see how JavaFX is going to be important into the future (obviously a value based opinion).
What level of "graphics" do you want? The Scene graph within JavaFX makes doing "fancy" graphics, video and animation easier than in Swing.
Hope this helps.

How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report

Hi,
I've been trying to customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report.
First i followed the instructions in Note:183131.1 -
How to Customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report
But of course the OWA_UTIL.REDIRECT_URL in this solution did not work (in a portlet) and i found the metalink document 228620.1 which described how to fix it.
So i followed the "fix" in the document above and now my output is,..
"Portlet 38,70711 responded with content-type text/plain when the client was requesting content-type text/html"
So i search in Metalink for the above and come up with,...
Bug 3548276 PORTLET X,Y RESPONDED WITH CONTENT-TYPE TEXT/PLAIN INSTEAD OF TEXT/HTML
And i've read it and read it and read it and read it and can't make heads or tails of what it's saying.
Every "solution" seems to cause another problem that i have to fix. And all i want to do is customize the Message "No Row Returned" from a Report. Please,...does anyone know how to do this?

My guess is that it only shows the number of rows it has retrieved. I believe the defailt is for it to only retrieve 50 rows and as you page through your report it retrieves more. So this would just tell you how many rows was retireved, but probably not how many rows the report would contain if you pages to the end. Oracle doesn't really have a notion of total number of rows until the whole result set has been materialized.
