How to make a chart/table a background object?

How do I make that grid into a background objective so that I can draw lines and similar things on top of it without it moving? Intending to use it as a coordinate system/grid/plane (or whatever it is called in English, but the thing refuses to stay still whatever I do to it. :/
Also, sorry for my bad English.
Thanks!

Please help : How to make the anomalistic table just like below?

Hi all,
How to make the anomalistic table just like below? Anyone can give the way detail or thoughtway ?
http://61.132.17.188/webber/table.gif

This is just a suggestion.
If you put your "JTable" in a "JScrollPane", then you can add any "java.awt.Component" to the corner of the "JScrollPane" -- using the "setCorner()" method (of "JScrollPane").
I would suggest making a custon "JPanel" and overriding its "paintComponent()" method to draw a diagonal line (and the required text) on it.
You can find out more about how to do this from the links I provided in my first reply.
Hope this helps.
Good Luck,

How to make a chart/graph of text?

Trying to make a chart of "Causes of Death" from a database of people to see how many people died of each cause. I have a standard database with names listed vertically, and categories (last name, first name, age, cause of death, etc.) horizontally. Please help!

Additional thoughts.
You can automate the generation of the list in Table 2, column A.
Add two columns to the right end of Table 1 (or use existing columns if there are two there already).
For the example, I'll assume they're columns P and Q.
In Q2, enter
=IF(LEN(D)>0,D,"")
and Fill down the rest of the column. (This copies the contents of column D to a column placed to the right of P, necessary for the VLOOKUP function in the formula used in Table 2.)
In P2, enter
=IF(COUNTIF($D$2:D2,D2)=1,MAX($P$1:P1)+1,"")
and Fill down the rest of the column. (This produces a running count of the distinct causes listed in column D, and marks the first occurrence of each with a serial number.)
Note that P1 may contain only text or the number zero.
Note that the function is quite literal—Whiskey and Whisky will be identified as distinct causes and counted separately.
On Table 2, in cell A2, enter:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(ROW()-1,Table 2 :: P:Q,2,FALSE),"")
and Fill down the rest of the column. (This looks up the serial numbers in column P of Table 1, and returns the cntents of the cell to the right of each one. The IFERROR part acts as an error trap to avoid error triangles where the formula looks for numbers larger than the highest serial number. "FALSE" in VLOOKUP will appear as "exact-match" in the formula when placed in the table.

How to make a custom table?

Ok, so an assignment is due today. I am up to the last part and what you need to do it make a custom graph, I have an iMac (OS X Yosemite) and I need to make a table like the one showed on the image I attached.

How to achieve this, thanks in advance!

Hello,
It should work in IP 2013 as well. Also make sure that you are designing client form because it does not works in browser based form.

How to make a whole table row be read at once?

Hi,
I want to make a whole table row be read at once by screenreaders if the table is not editable?
I tried to use "getAccessibleSelection" and return a own implementation which returns the number of columns at "getAccessibleSelectionCount".
But if "getAccessibleSelectionCount" return anything else than 1, the method "getAccessibleSelection" is never called.
Does anybody have a idea or a suggestion to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance

Hi AJL,
If you mean a table of data values in the Data Portal, i.e. a list of channels, then yes you can do it. In that case you should just register load the channels you want to be read-only. You can do this interactively by right-clicking on the data file in question and select "Register data". You can also double-click on the file to select individual channels to load or register. Programmatically, this looks like
Call DataFileLoad(DataFilename, DataPluginName, ImportAction)
Setting ImportAction = "Register" will register load the channels. If dragging and dropping the data file loads it correctly, then you can set DataPluginName = "". Otherwise, you can specify there which DataPlugin to use for the import process.
You can also programmatically selectively load some of the channels from the data source:
Call DataFileLoadSel(DataFilename, FileImportFilter, ImportSelection, ImportAction)
The "ImportSelection" parameter works just like the CNo() function in DIAdem:
"GroupName/ChannelName"
"GroupName/[ChannelIndex]"
"[GroupIndex]/ChannelName"
"[GroupIndex]/[ChannelIndex]"
If, on the other hand, you mean a read-only table in the REPORT panel, your options are limited, though you can do that with a SUDialog.

How to make a SCROLLABLE Table in ADF Faces ?

Hi All,
I want to make my ADF Table Scrollable (both Horizontally & vertically). It means when I have 30 rows on the table, I can make it only display 10 rows visible, then scroll it vertically.
Also If I have wide tables(many columns) I can scroll it horizontally.
Is it possible with ADF Faces ?
(I look at FrameBorderLayout, but it seems not be able to do that )
Thank you,
xtanto

Hi,
What about the Horizontal scrolling ?
for exampe :
I have about 15 columns, the full page width can only shows 10, so I need to scroll horizontally, But I don't want to scroll the page, only the table.
Is there any ADF Faces components for this ?
or any commercial JSF components ?
Thank you,
xtanto

How to make a curve to join two objects editable?

Hi, I'm involved in a project in which we're doing a visual editor (written in Java). Now, I'm trying to make curves that join two different objects that I'm painting in a class that extends JPanel (this class is what I'm using to paint, inside a JFrame, overriding the method paintComponent). I'm in troubles because I'm using the class QuadCurve2D to make this, but I cannot make it clickable (I'm using the method contains, but it doesn't work everytime), make it editable (for example, setting a square in its middle point to modify its curvature. The point that is used on the middle of the QuadCurve2D when the constructor is called is outside the curve) or something (method, variable, iterator, etc) that could tell me which Points are in the QuadCurve2D.
After looking for all of that some time, I have no answer, so I'm trying posting it here to find a solution. Is there anyway to make it with the QuadCurve2D class, or do I have to try with some external library?

Used the Pen tool, but click on the correct icon on the top left on the Options Bar. That way you can get a Path instead of a Shape Layer.
Once you have your Path you can stroke it with a Brush or any drawing tool. Various options appear in the Brushes palette. For a dotted line you will need to increase the spacing. If you want dashes, use a square brush and set the Angle Jitter to Direction.
