How to disable the minimize button on the JFrame?

Does anyone know how to disable the "Minimize" button on the JFrame (Window)?

Why bother using a JFrame at all? Just extend JDialog, and there won't be a minimize button to worry about at all. The only drawback is that a JDialog doesn't put an icon in the taskbar, so you have to move/close other windows until you can see the JDialog window on the desktop.
The windowMinimized stuff doesn't let you stop what the window is doing -- you just get an event telling you what happened.

  • The minimize button  is the only button that appears !!!!!

    Hi all,
    I am writing a java application and I encountered a problem. In fact the JFrame under windows is working perfeclty but when I run it on a unix machine using cygwin some buttons of the JFrame don't appear such as the close button, in fact the only button that appears is the minimize button. Has anyone encountered this problem before?
    Thank You
    Regards

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

  • Prevent form/timer hanging while holding the minimize button

    I got troubles when the customers holding the minimize button (without release) on my form, it make all forms and all timers/controls entirely hanging. And thus make some exception bugs for my application.
     Steps to Reproduce Behavior:
    In Form1,  create a Timer1 & Label1 and paste this code :
    Public Class Form1
    Public a As Long
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
    Timer1.Enabled = True
    Timer1.Interval = 1
    End Sub
    Private Sub Timer1_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Timer1.Tick
    a = a + 1
    Label1.Text = a
    End Sub
    End Class
    Press F5 to run the application. You will see the number display on Label1 increase rapidly. Now try to hold the Minimize button and the timer will hang up, label1 stop increasing. Release the minimize button will make the timer resume increasing.
    I want my timer and all controls in form still working while holding the minimize button. Is there any good resolution for my issue ?

    various possible resolution. remove controlbox. remove text. draw text if wanted. draw controls. use system.timers.timer. system menu removed so no menu for move size minimize maximize close available.

  • Safari: When i click the MINIMIZE button, the browser shuts down! Help??

    I just downloaded Safari for the first time (coz I'm jealous I don't have a Mac!). Whenever I click the minimize button up the top right-hand corner, the web browser closes completely instead of just minimizing.... Anyone got any idea why this might be happening??
    I'm running Windows Vista btw....
    Thanks!

    Cheers J-G
    I actually figured it out. I had just downloaded another program for Mac-wannabes who are stuck with Windows called Rocketdock, which provides you with the Mac version of the windows task bar for your desktop. In my Rocketdock options, there is an option that says "Minimize windows to Rocketdock" and I had this option selected. I have now de-selected it and everything is back to normal

  • How to disable the cancel button in the ProgressMonitor

    hi,
    I need to know, is there any way to disable/remove the (cancel)button in the ProgressMonitor?
    One more problem is,
    Once i click the cancel button, isCanceled() return true, how to make it false again so that the process continue....
    It is very urgently.....
    please help me out.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Deepa Raghuraman

    I don't think that's a good solution, because Cancel button itself is not disabled, so user is tempted to click it and nothing happens.
    A better but dangerous solution is this:
    progressMonitor = new ProgressMonitor(ProgressMonitorDemo.this,
                                         "Running a Long Task",
                                         "", 0, 100);
    progressMonitor.setMillisToDecideToPopup(0);
    progressMonitor.setMillisToPopup(0);
    progressMonitor.setProgress(0);
    JDialog dialog = (JDialog)progressMonitor.getAccessibleContext().getAccessibleParent();
    JOptionPane pane = (JOptionPane)dialog.getContentPane().getComponent(0);
    pane.setOptions(new Object[]{});Refer to the same question here [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/512151/how-do-i-disable-the-cancel-button-when-using-javax-swing-progressmonitor] .

  • How can I disable the previous button in the first page and the next button in the last page?

    Hi all,
    I have created a new skin for a webhelp by modifying the layout and the buttons. However, I am not able to find a way where in we can
    disable the previous button ini the first page of the webhelp and hte the next page in the last page of the webhelp. If both the next and previous button is visibile in the first and last page, it is sort of misguiding the user.
    I am using Robohelp 9.
    Please advice.
    Thanks,
    Parag

    I think you are mixing Previous and Next in a browse sequence and the Previous and Next that you get in the browser itself.
    In a browse sequence, they are automatically disabled at the start and finish. When in the first topic in the sequence only Next will be enabled, when in the last topic only previous will be enabled.
    Previous and Next in the browser are working on the topics your user has viewed which is not the same thing.

  • How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document.

    Hi.
    How to Enable the SAVE button in the Menu Bar of the Invoice Document as it is disabled for me.
    I would like to save the Invoice document in PDF  format.
    Regards
    Irfan

    Hi,
    Normally, for the archiving or generation of the invoice document in PDF format is handled by maintaining the output records through VV31/VV32 with the relevant printer, storage mode ( 3- print and archive or 2- archive only ), no. of messages ( means no of copies ) in the communication method.
    Then when you click the print button through VF03 in the print options pop-up you get a print at the physical printer and at the same time an archived copy ( PDF copy ) attached with the document.
    So, please make sure the output records are fine to allow a PDF copy generated and then try to print and check in VF03 by entering into the billing document.
    Hope this helps you.
    However, from the print preview you normally would not be allowed to save or print.
    Regards,
    Ram

  • Disabling the Open button in the JFileChooser dialog

    Hi,

    I looked at the Java APIs but I could not find a method that gives me the access to this button.
    Could anyone let me know how to either retrieve the Open button from the JFileChooser or enable/disable it through Java APIs?

    As I'm editing with multiclips in my sequence, if I select "open" from the middle pulldown menu in the canvas or viewer, it will open the multiclip in the viewer and play it in sync with my timeline playhead (like the gang feature). I.E. so I can hit play in my timeline, watch the multiclip in the viewer real time, and make edits (to the clip in the timeline) as I watch. My issue is that the syncing of the viewer playhead and the timeline playhead often break when deleting clips and I constantly have to reselect the "open" button, and it would be way nicer if there was a shortcut key instead of having to mouse it. It only takes a second to use your mouse and select "open" but when you have to do it constantly, it makes you wish for a quick key.

    Rick,
    In the NavigatorBar Bean:
    <jsp:useBean class="oracle.jbo.html.databeans.NavigatorBar" id="test" scope="request" >
    <%
    test.setShowNavigationButtons(true); test.setReleaseApplicationResources(false); test.initialize(pageContext,"jsp_grammar_GrammarModule.DeptView");
    test.render();
    %>
    </jsp:useBean>
    SET THIS TO FALSE
    test.setShowNaigationButtons(false);
    Instead use
    test.addButton(NAVIGATE_FIRST);
    test.addButton(NAVIGATE_NEXT);
    test.addButton(NAVIGATE_NEXT_PAGE);
    and put the buttons in you want to use. Look at BaseNavigator.java for all the buttons that are available.
    Good Luck,

  • Removing the minimize button from Title bar...

    Hi,
    I have created an desktop application using swing. I dont need minimized button on title bar of the main window. I searched a lot but could not find a solution. Can I get some useful links.
    What can I do ?
    Thanks

    Actually I want if the application is minimized, its state should not changed to iconified but it simple because hidden. And using the tray icon's option if application is open, it simple make the application visible. I did not want the following case which is happening right now.
    Case:
    1. I Minimized the application
    2. My application state becomes the iconified and it becomes hidden (As I have implemented the windowlistener)
    3. I used trayicon's Open option (it simply visible the application)
    4. Application becomes visible, but it is in iconified state. Because previously its state has been changed due to minimized button.I want whenever the Open option of tray icon is used, application must be visible in Maximized state. That why I also did on action listener of Open option
                            application.setState(NORMAL);
                            application.setExtendedState(MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
                            application.setVisible(true);That's why I planned to removed the minimize button from Title bar. But if it not possible then how can I avoid changing state of application when minimized button is used.
    thanks
