Make a friend with firebug & you could find yourself from where it is getting applied.
For the website you have given the background image it is using is [1] and it is getting set in css of body tag [2]. So Find the css at [3] and modify it OR replace [1] with other image with same file name.
[1]   www.hanwha.com/etc/designs/hanwha/images/bg-body.jpg
[2]
body {
    background: url("images/bg-body.jpg") repeat-x scroll 50% 0 #FFFFFF;
    color: #757373;
    font: 14px/18px Arial,Verdana,Helvetica,sans-serif;
    margin: 0;

Hi ViswAmmu,
>>Please help me out to get transparency for path in canvas to view background image in canvas.
If I'm not misunderstanding, I think you just need to loop through all Canvas.Children and set Opacity property for them:
private void Image_MouseLeftButtonDown_1(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
//Loop through all children items
foreach(UIElement v in CanvasPanel.Children)
v.Opacity = 0;
op.Title = "Select a picture";
op.Filter = "All supported graphics|*.jpg;*.jpeg;*.png|" +
"JPEG (*.jpg;*.jpeg)|*.jpg;*.jpeg|" +
"Portable Network Graphic (*.png)|*.png";
if (op.ShowDialog() == true)
ib.ImageSource = new BitmapImage(new Uri(op.FileName));
imgBackground.Source = new BitmapImage(new Uri(op.FileName));
CanvasPanel.Background = ib;

How to load mutiple image

I'm trying to create a photo manager but I can't find a way to load multiple images onto my frame. I have a thumbnail class that makes thumbnails for an image (which is a modified version of the class ImageHolder from FilthyRichClient)
public class Thumbnails {
     private List<BufferedImage> scaledImages = new ArrayList<BufferedImage>();
private static final int AVG_SIZE = 160;
* Given any image, this constructor creates and stores down-scaled
* versions of this image down to some MIN_SIZE
public Thumbnails(File imageFile) throws IOException{
          // TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
     BufferedImage originalImage = ImageIO.read(imageFile);
int imageW = originalImage.getWidth();
int imageH = originalImage.getHeight();
boolean firstScale = true;
scaledImages.add(originalImage);
while (imageW >= AVG_SIZE && imageH >= AVG_SIZE) {
     if(firstScale && (imageW > 320 || imageH > 320)) {
          float factor = (float) imageW / imageH;
          if(factor > 0) {
          imageW = 320;
          imageH = (int) (factor * imageW);
          else {
               imageH = 320;
               imageW = (int) (factor * imageH);
     else {
          imageW >>= 1;
     imageH >>= 1;
BufferedImage scaledImage = new BufferedImage(imageW, imageH,
originalImage.getType());
Graphics2D g2d = scaledImage.createGraphics();
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION,
RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR);
g2d.drawImage(originalImage, 0, 0, imageW, imageH, null);
g2d.dispose();
scaledImages.add(scaledImage);
* This method returns an image with the specified width. It finds
* the pre-scaled size with the closest/larger width and scales
* down from it, to provide a fast and high-quality scaled version
* at the requested size.
BufferedImage getImage(int width) {
for (BufferedImage scaledImage : scaledImages) {
int scaledW = scaledImage.getWidth();
// This is the one to scale from if:
// - the requested size is larger than this size
// - the requested size is between this size and
// the next size down
// - this is the smallest (last) size
if (scaledW < width || ((scaledW >> 1) < width) ||
(scaledW >> 1) < (AVG_SIZE >> 1)) {
if (scaledW != width) {
// Create new version scaled to this width
// Set the width at this width, scale the
// height proportional to the image width
float scaleFactor = (float)width / scaledW;
int scaledH = (int)(scaledImage.getHeight() *
scaleFactor + .5f);
BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(width,
scaledH, scaledImage.getType());
Graphics2D g2d = image.createGraphics();
g2d.setRenderingHint(
RenderingHints.KEY_INTERPOLATION,
RenderingHints.VALUE_INTERPOLATION_BILINEAR);
g2d.drawImage(scaledImage, 0, 0,
width, scaledH, null);
g2d.dispose();
scaledImage = image;
return scaledImage;
// shouldn't get here
return null;
A loop will loop through a collection of files and pass them to the constructor of Thumbnails to create thumbnails and then set them as icon for JLabels that will be added to a JPanel, but it throws a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError at this line:
BufferedImage originalImage = ImageIO.read(imageFile);
even when there're only about 8 image files in the collection (total size 2,51MB).
I've seen other people's software that could load hundreds of photos in a matter of seconds! How do I suppose to do that? How to load mutiple images efficiently? Please help!! Thanks a lot!

Thanks everybody! I appreciate your help! I don't understand why but when I use a separate thread to do the job, that problem disappear. You were likely doing your image loading and thumnail creation on the Event Dispatching Thread. Among other things, this is the same thread that updates and paints your panels, frames, buttons, ect.. When a programer does something computationaly expensive on the event dispatching thread then the GUI becomes unresponsive until the computation is done.
Ideally what you want to do is load images and create thumnails on a seperate thread and update your GUI on the event dispatching thread. I supect that while you are finally doing the first item, you might now be violating the second item.
Whatever, the program seems to be pretty slow on start up 'cause it have to reload images everytime. I'm using Picasa and it can display those thumbnails almost instantly. I know that program is made by professionals. But I still want to know how.I took a look at this Picasa you mentioned. It's the photo manager from google right? You're right in that the thumnails display instantly when starting up. This is because Picasa is actually saving the thumnails, instead of creating them everytime the program starts up. It only creates the thumnails once (when you import a picture) and saves the thumnail data to " +*currentUser*+ /AppData/Local/Google/Picasa2/db3/" (at least on my computer --> Vista).
Also, if your looking for speed then for some inexplicable reason java.awt.Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(...); is faster (sometimes much faster) than ImageIO.read(...). But there comes a price in dealing with Toolkit images. A toolkit image isn't ready for anything until it has been properly 'loaded' using one of several methods. Also, when you're done and ready for the image to be garbage collected then you need to call Image.flush() or you will eventually find yourself with an out of memory error (BufferedImages don't have this problem). Lastly, Toolkit.createImage(...) can only read image files that the older versions of java supported (jpg, png, gif, bmp) .
And, another question (or maybe I should post it in a different thread?), I can't display all thumbnails using a JPanel because it has a constant height unless I explicitly set it with setPreferredSize. Even when put in a JScrollPane, the height doesn't change so the scrollbar doesn't appear. Anyone know how to auto grow or shrink a JPanel vertically? Or I have to calculate the preferred height by myself?Are you drawing the thumnails directly on the JPanel? If so then you will indeed need to dynamically set the preferred size of the component.
If not, then presumebly your wrapping the thumnails in something like a JLabel or JButton and adding that to the panel. If so, what is the layout manager you're using for the panel?

How to load a image after getting it with a file chooser?

I'm still starting with JavaFX, and I simply would like to know how to load the image (e.g. png or jpg) that I selected using a FileChooser in the user interface. I can access the file normally within the code, but I'm still lost about how to load it appropriately. Every time I select a new image using the FileChooser, I should discard the previous one and consider the new one. My code is shown below:
import javafx.stage.Stage;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.shape.Rectangle;
import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
import javafx.scene.layout.HBox;
import javafx.scene.control.Button;
import javax.swing.JFileChooser;
import javafx.scene.image.ImageView;
import javafx.scene.image.Image;
var chooser: JFileChooser = new JFileChooser();
var image;
Stage {
    title: "Image"
    scene: Scene {
        width: 950
        height: 500
        content: [
            HBox {
                layoutX: 670
                layoutY: 18
                spacing: 10
                content: [
                    Button {
                        text: "Open"
                        action: function() {
                            if (JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION == chooser.showOpenDialog(null)) {
                                var imageFile = chooser.getSelectedFile();
                                println("{imageFile.getCanonicalFile()}");
                                image = Image{
                                    width: 640
                                    url:imageFile.getAbsolutePath()
            // Image area
            Rectangle {
                x: 10
                y: 10
                width: 640
                height: 480
                fill: Color.WHITE
            ImageView {
                x: 10
                y: 10
                image: bind image
}Thank you in advance for any suggestion to make it work. :)

As its name implies, the url param expect... an URL, not a file path!
So, use {color:#8000FF}url: imageFile.toURI().toURL(){color} instead.

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains (e,g, sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net).
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.images pref should be 1.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.
Make sure that you allow pages to choose their colors and that you haven't enabled High Contrast in the Accessibility settings.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"

How to get background image to fill the browser and remain fixed in both IE and Firefox?

Basically what it says in the title. I've come very close in achieving this but something just doesn't tie up in the html and css code...
First of all, I'm using IE8 and the latest version of Firefox to test this.
I used 2 sources of information for getting this done: 1) http://css-tricks.com/perfect-full-page-background-image/ and 2) http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8958697/css3-background-size-cover-doesnt-make-image-co ver-vertically
In Case 1 the example on the page called CSS-Only Technique #1 gives code that works almost perfectly for me, except that obviously I need a background image, however the CSS provided there is clearly just for an image dropped in the body of a page with no regard for other content that may already be there. The html code that I put on the page is simply <img class="bg" src="../images/background_image.jpg">
Obviously I used the CSS code provided in the example, minus the last bit which is "@media screen" etc etc, which seems irrelevant to me. Obviously substituting values to suit the image on my page.
So what happened is that it almost worked as intended in both the browsers (which means the image filled both browsers width-wise as intended and also remained fixed when I zoomed in or out in each case) except that the image went over the top of the current content that I had there already precisely because it's not a background in this "technique". (A curious side-note is that the image didn't push down the content, as I'd have expected in normal circumstances, but went right over the top of it so it hid it (like z-index).
One thing that does bother me about this "technique" is that if you click on View Demo just below the code provided you will see on the working example page (forest background) the image clearly works as a background and the content sits happily on top! So I don't know whether the person providing the example was trying to mislead people or what! Or he got lazy and showed a different page that didn't use the exact code he provided. No matter.
In any case this leaves me with the job only half finished, as I still need a background image that works like the 'normal image' code provided.
On to Case 2 and on this page the first example provided gives the CSS for the background image - namely the code within html {...} part and also shows the same 'normal image' code as given in Case 1. In this case however, although the person provided a suggestion, the css and html doesn't really tie up properly plus some of the css and html seems a bit redundant. So this time when I used the 'html portion' of the CSS code (i.e. just the bit that was most relevant) I got two different behaviours in each browser and neither of which was quite what I'm looking for. In IE8 initially the page looks fine (background fills the page and content is on top) however when I zoom in or out the background also zooms in or out accordingly so is NOT fixed. In Firefox the background image DOES stay fixed, however because the image originally is not the whole height of the browser I'm guessing the code stretches it downwards (while keeping proportions - so the image essentially enlarges) to fill all of it. The quick way to get around it is to probably add some white space to the bottom of the image just to give it enough height that it doesn't stretch/resize automatically. But it would be nice to find out anyway how to get around this in the code. Overall I would say that the result in Firefox comes closest to the desired solution but of course it doesn't help matters with IE8.
Apologies for the lengthy description but that should at least provide plenty info for anybody that might have a possible solution for me. Essentially what would be great is if somebody could advise me how to take the code from Case 1 and apply it to a 'background' piece of coding like the type that's contained within html {...} in Case 2. Like I said, it's so nearly there but I just can't make it work atm after trying to combine the various bits of code this way and that... Alternatively, if somebody has another html-css version that works nicely for achieving this then please by all means let me know! Thanks v much in advance!

This works in modern CSS3 supporting browsers. But not pre-IE9.
