ImageIcons
Hello, I have a question regarding the following code. I have excluded the irrelevant parts and only left the code that there is a problem with.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
public class HandType extends JFrame implements ActionListener
static String hookString = "Hooked Hand";
static String normalString = "Regular Hand";
JRadioButton radioHook;
JRadioButton radioNormal;
public HandType()
setSize(750, 300);
setTitle("Hand Dominance: CP Dehli 2010");
Container contentPane = getContentPane(); contentPane.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
JPanel handPanel = new JPanel();
handPanel.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
handPanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
ImageIcon hookButtonIcon = createImageIcon("/Users/CP/Desktop/Java/Project File/Pictures/HookWriting.JPG");
ImageIcon normButtonIcon = createImageIcon("/Users/CP/Desktop/Java/Project File/Picture/NormalWriting.JPG");
radioHook = new JRadioButton(hookString, hookButtonIcon);
handPanel.add(radioHook);
radioNormal = new JRadioButton(normalString, normButtonIcon);
handPanel.add(radioNormal);
ButtonGroup buttonGroup = new ButtonGroup();
buttonGroup.add(radioHook);
buttonGroup.add(radioNormal);
} Now when I press Compile I get the two following errors.
2 errors found:
File: /Users/CP/Desktop/Java Project File/HandType.java [line: 32]
Error: cannot find symbol
symbol : method createImageIcon(java.lang.String)
location: class HandType
File: /Users/CP/Desktop/Java Project File/HandType.java [line: 33]
Error: cannot find symbol
symbol : method createImageIcon(java.lang.String)
location: class HandType
This is my second thread here and I am very grateful for all the help I received in my first thread. As I said earlier I am a beginner, and any help and/or criticism will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
I changed my code to the following and now there are no compiling errors. However when I run the main method and when the radio buttons should show up with an image they do not. Instead only words show up with the actual button and images not being shown. This is the Screenshot of what I get. As always help will always be greatly appreciated!
ImageIcon hookButtonIcon = new ImageIcon("/Users/CP/Desktop/Java/Project File/Pictures/HookWriting.JPG", "A hooked hand");
ImageIcon normButtonIcon = new ImageIcon("/Users/CP/Desktop/Java/Project File/Picture/NormalWriting.JPG", "A normal hand");

Resized animated gif ImageIcon not working properly with JButton etc.
The problem is that when I resize an ImageIcon representing an animated gif and place it on a Jbutton, JToggelButton or JLabel, in some cases the image does not show or does not animate. More precicely, depending on the specific image file, the image shows always, most of the time or sometimes. Images which are susceptible to not showing often do not animate when showing. Moving over or clicking with the mouse on the AbstractButton instance while the frame is supposed to updated causes the image to disappear (even when viewing the non-animating image that sometimes appears). No errors are thrown.
Here some example code: (compiled with Java 6.0 compliance)
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Test
public static void main(String[] args)
new Test();
static final int IMAGES = 3;
JButton[] buttons = new JButton[IMAGES];
JButton toggleButton = new JButton("Toggle scaling");
boolean doScale = true;
public Test()
JFrame f = new JFrame();
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
JPanel p = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1, IMAGES));
for (int i = 0; i < IMAGES; i++)
p.add(this.buttons[i] = new JButton());
f.add(p, BorderLayout.CENTER);
f.add(this.toggleButton, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
this.toggleButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
Test.this.refresh();
f.setSize(600, 300);
f.setVisible(true);
this.refresh();
public void refresh()
this.doScale = !this.doScale;
for (int i = 0; i < IMAGES; i++)
ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon(i + ".gif");
if (this.doScale)
image = new ImageIcon(image.getImage().getScaledInstance(180, 180, Image.SCALE_AREA_AVERAGING));
image.setImageObserver(this.buttons);
this.buttons[i].setIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setSelectedIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setDisabledIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setDisabledSelectedIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setRolloverIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setRolloverSelectedIcon(image);
this.buttons[i].setPressedIcon(image);
Download the gif images here:
http://djmadz.com/zombie/0.gif
http://djmadz.com/zombie/1.gif
http://djmadz.com/zombie/2.gif
When you press the "Toggle scaling"button it switches between unresized (properly working) and resized instances of three of my gif images. Notice that the left image almost never appears, the middle image always, and the right image most of the time. The right image seems to (almost) never animate. When you click on the left image (when visble) it disappears only when the backend is updating the animation (between those two frames with a long delay)
Why are the original ImageIcon and the resized ImageIcon behaving differently? Are they differently organized internally?
Is there any chance my way of resizing might be wrong?It does work, however I refuse to use SCALE_REPLICATE for my application because resizing images is butt ugly, whether scaling up or down. Could there be a clue in the rescaling implementations, which I can override?
Maybe is there a way that I can check if an image is a multi-frame animation and set the scaling algorithm accordingly?

Can not display ImageIcon in a JLabel where you want in the code ???
Hello, everybody. I need your help to solve a problem I am on it for 2 days now :
In the constructor of my class, I have a lot of initializing methods. If I try to display an image (with ImageIcon in a JLabel) within one of these methods, there is no problem and the image is correctely displayed. To try that, I use an image stored on my local disk in "c:\\".
public class Bedes extends javax.swing.JFrame {
public Bedes() {
initComponents();
-- further initializations
initConnection();
public void initConnection() {
try {
String driverName = "sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver";
Properties systemProperties = System.getProperties();
systemProperties.put("jdbc.drivers", driverName);
System.setProperties(systemProperties);
String dbURL = "jdbc:odbc:Bandes Dessin�es";
String strUtilisateur = "bedes";
String strMotDePasse = "cdle";
connectBedes = DriverManager.getConnection(dbURL,strUtilisateur,strMotDePasse);
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception in DB Contact " + e);
// Here, I display an image in my JLabel, and it works :
couvertureAlbumString = "c:\\myImage.jpg";
couvertureAlbumsIcon = new ImageIcon(couvertureAlbumString);
couvertureAlbumsJLabel.setIcon(couvertureAlbumsIcon);
couvertureAlbumsJLabel.repaint();
}The problem is that I do not want to display these images there, but in a method that read some data's in a Database (with "try"-"catch" blocks). If there is a name of an image store in the DB, then it must be displayed in the JLabel (located in a JFrame -> JDeskTopPane -> JTabbedPane -> JPanel).
private void searchDetailsForAlbum(String albumsDetailsToSearch) {
String nomImageCouverture;
String couvertureAlbumString;
ImageIcon couvertureAlbumsIcon;
try {
PreparedStatement requeteDetailsAlbums = connectBedes.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM bandes_dess WHERE bede_nom_tome = ?");
requeteDetailsAlbums.setString(1, albumsDetailsToSearch);
ResultSet resultatDetailsAlbums = requeteDetailsAlbums.executeQuery();
resultatDetailsAlbums.next();
collectionAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(6));
genreAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(9));
dessinateurAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(10));
scenaristeAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(11));
coloristeAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(12));
prixAchatAlbumsJTextField.setText(resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(13));
// Here is the name of the Image to de read
nomImageCouverture = resultatDetailsAlbums.getString(14);
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Exception in searchDetailsForAlbum" + e);
couvertureAlbumString = "c:\\";
// Here, I check if there is a name for a picture in the DB
if (!(nomImageCouverture.equals("No"))) {
// If Yes, I want to display it
couvertureAlbumString = couvertureAlbumString + nomImageCouverture;
couvertureAlbumsIcon = new ImageIcon(couvertureAlbumString);
couvertureAlbumsJLabel.setIcon(couvertureAlbumsIcon);
couvertureAlbumsJLabel.repaint();
}My JLabel is well displayed, but empty, without any image on it. WHY ???
MLK, you asked me to add some debug code. OK, with pleasure, but what is that "debug code" ???
Thanks a lot in advance if you could help me.
Christian.DEBUG: couvertureAlbumString: c:\Aldebaran-La-Photo
OK, the extension of the file was NOT present !!!
I added it and ..... it works pretty good !!!
Thank you for your idea of the DEBUG.

Hi I'm having a lot of trouble getting the below code to work. Its copied out of my textbook and its supposed to load an image using the getImage method in the ImageIcon class. The strange thing is I have gotten this to work before, but after I installed Windows 2000 the image doesn't seem to load right anymore.
getWidth and getHeight - on the image afterwards returns -1.
Could this be windows 2000's problem? I'm pretty sure it isn't .. but when you run out of ideas, it feels good to put the blame on something other than yourself.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.net.*;
public class DisplayImage extends JApplet
public void init()
ImageIcon icon = null;
try
icon = new ImageIcon(new URL(getCodeBase(), "Images/backTile.bmp"));
catch(MalformedURLException e)
System.out.println("Failed to create URL:\n"+e);
return;
int imageWidth = icon.getIconWidth();
int imageHeight = icon.getIconHeight();
resize(imageWidth, imageHeight);
ImagePanel imagePanel = new ImagePanel(icon.getImage());
getContentPane().add(imagePanel);
class ImagePanel extends JPanel
public ImagePanel(Image image)
this.image = image;
public void paint(Graphics g)
g.drawImage(image,0,0,this);
Image image;
Again thx a lot. I know its a lot of code to read. Any help at all would be much appreciated.".bmp" ? Windows bitmap isn't a supported file type, you should save your image as .gif, .png, or as .jpg.

Problem with JFileChooser and ImageIcon
I'm trying to create an ImageIcon object from file selected in JFileChooser. The problem is that jfc.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath() returns a string with backslashes and the constructor of ImageIcon requires the string to have slashes. I`ve tried to create it via URL but it doesn't work as well...
String lastUsedPath;
URL imageURL;
JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser();
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
int returnVal = fc.showDialog(frame,title);
if(returnVal==JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION){
lastUsedPath = fc.getSelectedFile().getAbsolutePath();
imageURL = getClass().getResource(lastUsedPath); //don't really get this but I copied it from Java Swing Tutorial
}else{
return null;
int curH, curW;
ImageIcon srcIcon = new ImageIcon(imageURL);
curW = srcIcon.getIconWidth();
curH = srcIcon.getIconHeight();If I use it this way imageURL is set to null.
If I set the imageURL as 'fc.getSelectedFile().toURL()' the string is eg.: "file:/E:/file.jpg" instead of "E:/file.jpg". After that the ImageIcon is created but width and height return -1.
If I try to create ImageIcon by 'new ImageIcon(lastUsedPath)' I get a not null object but the width & height of the ImageIcon is -1 as well.
What do I have to do to be able to create an ImageIcon from file selected in JFileChooser? Why is this so hard and mind blowing?It still returns the ImageIcon object with width & height set to -1.
EDIT:
Got it finally:
lastUsedPathForStupidImageIcon = fc.getSelectedFile().getPath();
img = ImageIO.read(new File(lastUsedPathForStupidImageIcon));
curH = img.getHeight(this);
curW = img.getWidth(this);The key was to use another String variable and hold the path instead of the absolute path

Bug: IconUIResource doesn't paint an animated ImageIcon
I was recently playing with Icons and found that javax.swing.plaf.IconUIResource doesn't paint an ImageIcon that contains an animated GIF. Found the reason in these bug fixes.
[http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4215118]
[http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=4215118]
From that, I could arrive at a workaround: extend ImageIcon to implement the UIResource marker interface and use this class instead of wrapping an ImageIcon in a IconUIResource. Interestingly, NetBeans autocomplete revealed the existance of sun.swing.ImageIconUIResource which I determined to be a direct subclass of ImageIcon, with two constructors that take an Image and byte[] respectively.
Test SSCCE: import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;

public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
URL imageURL = new URL("http://www.smiley-faces.org/smiley-faces/smiley-face-rabbit.gif");
InputStream is = imageURL.openStream();
ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
int n;
byte[] data = new byte[1024];
while ((n = is.read(data, 0, data.length)) != -1) {
baos.write(data, 0, n);
baos.flush();
byte[] bytes = baos.toByteArray();
ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon(bytes);
Icon icon = new IconUIResource(imageIcon);
UIManager.put("OptionPane.errorIcon", icon);

} catch (IOException ex) {

}I can't see any alternative fix for the one carried out in response to the quoted bug reports, so have held off on making a bug report. Any ideas?
Thanks for reading, Darryl
I'm also posting this to JavaRanch for wider discussion, and shall post the link here as soon as possible. I'll also keep both threads updated with all significant suggestions received.

You can check the delay time between the images in the gif, to see that it's not too short.
Here's a simple example:import java.net.URL;
import javax.imageio.ImageIO;
import javax.imageio.stream.ImageInputStream;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JDialog;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import com.sun.imageio.plugins.gif.GIFImageMetadata;
import com.sun.imageio.plugins.gif.GIFImageReader;
public class AnimatedGifTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JDialog.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
URL url = new URL("http://www.gifanimations.com/action/SaveImage?path=/Image/Animations/Cartoons/~TS1176984655857/Bart_Simpson_2.gif");
frame.add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(url)));
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
// Read the delay time for the first frame in the animated gif
GIFImageReader reader = (GIFImageReader) ImageIO.getImageReadersByFormatName("GIF").next();
ImageInputStream iis = ImageIO.createImageInputStream(url.openStream());
reader.setInput(iis);
GIFImageMetadata md = (GIFImageMetadata) reader.getImageMetadata(0);
System.out.println("Time Delay = " + md.delayTime);
reader.dispose();
iis.close();

Hi,
I'm giving Java another try and I'm working through the short courses and Magercises. I'm having a problem with the code below.
<pre>
package examples.myapps.test;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class FirstSwing extends JFrame {
// The initial width and height of the frame
public static int WIDTH = 300;
public static int HEIGHT = 300;
// images for buttons
public Icon bee = new ImageIcon("bee.gif");
public Icon dog = new ImageIcon("dog.gif");
public FirstSwing(String lab) {
super(lab);
JButton top = new JButton("A bee", bee);
top.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("bee");
JButton bottom = new JButton("and a dog", dog);
bottom.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("dog");
top.setMnemonic (KeyEvent.VK_B);
bottom.setMnemonic (KeyEvent.VK_D);
Container content = getContentPane();
content.setLayout(new GridLayout(2,1));
content.add(top);
content.add(bottom);
public static void main(String args[]) {
FirstSwing frame = new FirstSwing("First Swing Stuff");
frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {System.exit(0);}
frame.setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
frame.setVisible(true);
</pre>
The problem is that the icons don't appear. The image files (bee.gif and dog.gif) are in the same directory as the source file. I get no errors, the images just do not appear in the button like they are supposed to according to the example. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
MikeI had the same problem with ONE STUDIO 4 trying the example below ... the image is in the same directory as the class is and it�s ok ... it only work fine if I set the full absolute path, but not with a relative one ....
But I tryed the same example in the same dir with Jbuider 3 ... and it works fine and the ImageIcon appears .... I think it�s something related to Filesystems in the Studio One ....

if your source is in

put the gifs in
C:\fooThanks, but this isn't working either. My source is
in:
c:\java-ide\sampledir\examples\myapps\test.
I've placed the gifs in c:\java-ide,

etc. (all directories) and nothing shows the gifs in
the buttons. Any ideas? -
Hi, im working on a simple paint program in a Japplet. I'm stuck right now on getting an icon on a button by giving the ImageIcon constructor a file path. I get an error when I try to run the applet with the imaging code in, not without.
I've read in a few places that this won't work for general applets or jar files. Is there anyway that i can get it to load from my computer without resorting to having to load the .gif files from a internet site?
// i have this (which doesn't work)
JButton draw = new JButton(new ImageIcon("images/0.gif"));
draw.addActionListener(canvas);
toolsPanel.add(draw);
//as compared to this (which does without an image)
JButton line = new JButton("Line");
line.addActionListener(canvas);
toolsPanel.add(line);JButton draw = new JButton(new ImageIcon(new java.net.URL(getCodeBase(),"images/0.gif")));

}If this doesn't help then post a similiar demo program that shows the problems you are having, not your entire application. -
Hi I am having a little problem with my program that I am trying to develop.
I have created a JFrame and instead of having the background the usual grey I have used an image.
I then wanted to create some nice big buttons with nice smooth curved edges but was having trouble using the JButton so decicded to use a JLabel and attach a MouseListener to it. This seems to be working fine at the mo.
The only problem is that instead of my nice gradient filled background being displayed I get a big white border around the JLabel. The rest of the background is perfectly displayed having only a problem around the JLabel. I have tried not using a background image and it shows the JLabel correctly and the button looks nice and smooth.
I think it might be something to do with the rendering sequence maybe but I am at a loss. If any one has any ideas on how to fix it or a better way of doing it I would be most grateful.
Many thanks for your help in advance.
Matt
PS now heres my code:
public class GUI extends JFrame implements MouseListener {
ImageIcon icon;
JPanel buttonPanel = new JPanel();
public GUI(){
super("Property Works - Estate Agent Management System");
icon = new ImageIcon("images/bg.jpg");
JPanel panel = new JPanel(){
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g){
//g.drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, null);
Dimension d = getSize();
//g.drawImage(icon.getImage(), 0, 0, d.width, d.height, null);
super.paintComponent(g);
panel.setOpaque(false);
addButton();
panel.add(buttonPanel);
getContentPane().add(panel);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
setVisible(true);
public void addButton(){
ImageIcon icon1 = new ImageIcon("images/buttons/addProperty.gif");
JLabel addProperty = new JLabel(icon1);
addProperty.setOpaque(false);
addProperty.setToolTipText("Add a new property");
addProperty.addMouseListener(this);
JLabel tester = new JLabel("Tester");
tester.setOpaque(false);
buttonPanel.add(addProperty);
buttonPanel.add(tester);
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent arg0) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
System.out.println("Button Clicked");
}Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
Use the "code" tags when you post code so the formatting is retained.
The code you posted doesn't compile so we can't see the incorrect behaviour.
Using code I already have I do not see any white border around the image. I tested using a "Duke" image which is found in many of the Swing tutorial examples. Maybe your image is the problem. -
Need help importing animated gif by ImageIcon in Japplet
Hello. Im new to Java, but I want to import this animated gif with Java in a Japplet using ImageIcon, but it does not work and I would really appreciate if anyone could help me with this.
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.net.*;
public class Bilder extends Japplet{
public ImageIcon(java.net."http://pixelninja.se/kappawin.gif");
Image[] bild = new Image[1];
int nr=0;
public void init(){
setBackground(Color.black);
bild[0] = getImage(getCodeBase(),"4a.gif");
public void paint(Graphics g){
g.drawImage(bild[0],50,50,212,282,this);
}You cant do animated gifs this way.
Also you should remember that you cannot load images in to an applet if it is hosted somewere else than the host that hosts the applet.
Esiast way to display an image icon with a animated gif will be creating a Image Label and adding it to the applet.
Ex:-
public class MyImageApplet extends JApplet{
public void init(){
getConentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
URL imageURL = getClass().getResource("/myImage.gif");
// Above image file should be in the code base or in the archive file of the applet
getConentPane().add(new JLabel(new ImageIcon(imageURL)));
} -
Importing gif file to ImageIcon
Hi,
I am trying to use a gif file that I have included in my project (using Windows XP). I am trying to stick the image from the gif file into a ImageIcon variable, and sticking the variable into a label. Here is the code that I am using to have the program access the gif file:
private ImageIcon redX = new ImageIcon( " \\JAVA programs\\Week 8\\lab8_1a\\redshd.gif " );
I have a classPath setup in my environment variables/system variables as follows:
.;C:\Documents and Settings\Jim Roth\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\Programs
and the path to the gif file is as follows:
C:\Documents and Settings\Jim Roth\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\Programs\JAVA programs\Week 8\Lab8_1A\redshd.gif
When I run the program, the screen comes up empty. I am using a basic frame, with a GridLayout. When I change the input into the label to a string, it shows up on the label when the program runs.
In debug mode, I am not quite sure of what the values apply to, but oneonf them shows up as 'null'.
I think my problem lies with the program just not finding the gif.file. Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot!
JimboOK, here is the program.....it is my very first stab at anything gui. We are supposed to display a tic tac toe grid, and have it randomly put x's and o's (or something simiilar) in a3x3 grid in a random fashion. Here it is:

public class TicTacToe extends JFrame
private ImageIcon redX = new ImageIcon("\\JAVA programs\\Week 8\\lab8_1a\\redshd.gif");
private ImageIcon blueCirc = new ImageIcon("\\JAVA programs\\Week 8\\lab8_1a\\qmark.gif");
/** Default constructor for TicTacToe */
public TicTacToe()
setLayout(new GridLayout(3,3,2,2));//sets grid layout for a 3x3 grid with 2 pixel spacing
//add 9 JLabels to hold image icons
for(int i =0; i < 10; ++i)
add(this.generateJLabel());
public static void main(String[] args)
TicTacToe game = new TicTacToe();
game.setTitle("Tic Tac Toe");
game.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
game.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
game.setSize(250, 250);
game.setVisible(true);
protected JLabel generateJLabel()
Random rand = new Random();//instantiate random object to generate ints
int randNum = rand.nextInt(4);//generate ints between 0 and 4 (exclusive)
/*The following switch statement looks at random number generated by the Random
object and assigns an image to a JLabel according to the int returned./
switch (randNum)
case 1:
JLabel temp = new JLabel(this.redX);
return temp;
case 2:
JLabel temp1 = new JLabel(this.blueCirc);
return temp1;
default:
JLabel temp2 = new JLabel();
return temp2;

If anyone knows what I am doing wrong, I'd like to know. I've tried several ways to fix it (as you can probably tell from the commented out code), but none of them worked.
Sorry if my code isn't the cleanest; it's still in development =]
PS: is it just me or does the code button in the post dialog still not work correctly?
Thanks,
LinuxMercedesSorry for all the code. Here's a truncated version:
PaletteClass:
public class PaletteClass implements ItemListener{
JFrame frame = new JFrame();//Window
GridBagLayout layout = new GridBagLayout();
GridBagConstraints constraints = new GridBagConstraints();
JPanel main = new JPanel(layout);
JToggleButton cmdTop = new JToggleButton("Stick to Top");
static String description = "Unnamed Plugin"; //Name of plugin
ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(); //icon of plugin
static boolean state = true; //is it visible?
static JToggleButton button;
JCheckBoxMenuItem menu = new JCheckBoxMenuItem(description, icon, state);
PaletteClass(iKalk ikalk){
setIcon("/images/generic.gif",ikalk,this);
init();
public void init(){
frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
frame.add(main, BorderLayout.NORTH);
public void setIcon(String path, iKalk ikalk, PaletteClass parent){
parent.icon = new ImageIcon(ikalk.getClass().getResource(path));
}NumberPad:
public class NumberPad extends PaletteClass implements ActionListener{
public NumberPad(iKalk ikalk){
super(ikalk);
//Set the description
description = "Number Pad";
button = new JToggleButton(description, icon, state);
setIcon("/images/NumberPad.gif", ikalk, this);
}Code I use to load Plugins:
void addPlugin(PaletteClass plugin){
pluginsVector.addElement(plugin);
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
toolMain.add(PaletteClass.button);
}Oh yeah, and please don't go using this code in your projects without asking =]
Thanks (and my apologies again),

How can I get an ImageIcon back from a JToggleButton...
When I create a JToggleButton I have to create an ImageIcon and pass it to the constructor.
e.g. JToggleButton toggleButtonA = new JToggleButton( new ImageIcon( "images/A.gif" ) );
But when I want to get that ImageIcon back, all I can find in the documentation is getIcon(), which is much more limited in what I can do with it.
How can I get my ImageIcon back?
I've seen some people just paint the button on a new ImageIcon, but then it's not the same image, it has the button look around the original icon, not to mention since it's a toggle button you actually get the selectedIcon() instead.
Please help. Thanks.All you basically have to do is use getIcon() and cast it to an ImageIcon... here's an example:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class ImageIconGrab {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("ImageIcon Grabber");
JToggleButton jtb = new JToggleButton(new ImageIcon("pregoico.gif"));
ImageIcon ii = (ImageIcon) jtb.getIcon();
JToggleButton jtb2 = new JToggleButton(ii);
frame.getContentPane().add(jtb, BorderLayout.NORTH);
frame.getContentPane().add(jtb2, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true); -
Calling a method and setting an ImageIcon with source from anoth class
I am trying to make a simple game, first I am trying to set up a game board, and make it possible to place units on the board. (This game will probably never be possible to play, I am just using it to try to understand Java, GUI, Swing, and using more than one class).
So far I have 4 classes: Board (extends JFrame, sets up a gameboard, on which to place the pieces), Unit (a class from which the specific units types will inherit), Horse (my only type of unit, which extends the Unit class), and Game (which calls methods from the other classes).
(These don't do much now.. this is what they will do, hopefully).
All these classes are in a package called Gamev1.
In the main method of Game, I do:
---code--
public static void main (String[]args){
new Board().show();
Horse horseUnits[] = new Horse[1];
horseUnits[0] = new Horse();
horseUnits[0].moveUnit(squares[0]);
end of code--
when I debug it I get:
myjava/FirstGraphics/Gamev1/Game.java [25:1] cannot resolve symbol
symbol: variable squares
location: class.myjava.FirstGraphics.Gamev1.Game
horseUnits[0].moveUnitsquares[0]);
1 error
---code----
moveUnit(JLabel moveTo)
is a method in Unit class:
public void moveUnit(JLabel moveTo){
target=moveTo;
target.setIcon(this.image);
if (this.position !=null)
this.position.setIcon(noUnit);
this.position=moveTo;
---end of code---------
squares[] is an array of JLabels which is set up in the Board class, whenever a new Board is created:
---code---
JLabel squares[] = new JLabel[100];
for (int s=0; s<100; s++){
squares[s] = new JLabel();
---end of code---
I tried changing the reference from squares[0] to Board.squares[0] but I got the same error message in debug.
Any idea what is wrong?
I have another problem, which is probably similar.
in the Board class I call:
squares[s].setIcon(Unit.noUnit);
and in the Unit class I have:
static ImageIcon noUnit = new ImageIcon("images//none.gif");
I don't get an error message mentioning it, but (without the attempt to place the horse on the board) the program compiles, but doesn't put this image on the labels. Any idea what is the porblem here?
If I have not given enough information for anyone to help me, please tell me what further information I should give.
Thanks to anyone who answers.I got it to work with
Board board = new Board();
horseUnits[0].moveUnit(board.squares[0]);To use Board.squares[0], squares would have to be static.
The ImageIcon seemed to work okay. I noticed that your post had two slashes in the url [/] - that might throw things off . . .
The code below has the icon call at the end of setLabeLProperties.
I got carried away playing with the graphics so the squares don't work very well.

Is it possible to make an ImageIcon array?
Hi, I have been having some strange problems with ImageIcon...
Here is my code...
ImageIcon tiles[][] = new ImageIcon[5][5];
tiles[0][0] = "1.png";
I know this is not right, but basically, I want to make a 2dimensional array of imageIcon's, and then use a loop to set the link to the image. This is tough because I have not had any luck with this code. It works on strings, int's, float's, etc. but not on ImageIcon's grrrrrrr
thanksAll I want to do, Is make an array of ImageIcon's and then use a 2dimensional loop to draw all the tiles.
problem one: I want to use a loop to create each individual ImageIcon, and since there is no "setfile" kind of function i tried making my own in the post above. But im simply trying to make a loop which sets all of the tiles to appropriate file names. (all the file names are numbers and then .png)
Thats all I want to do, and I want to pass a parameter to a function which tells it the filename to set, and the specific ImageIcon in the array to modify. Hence why I had 2 paramater strings in the previous post
