JComboBox selection actions on mouse and enter only

I am driving some processing off of selections in a JComboBox.
The ItemListener goes into action when the user mouse clicks on an item (this is good), but also when an item is arrowed through (bad).
I want to wait until the person hits enter before starting my processing.
Ideally the JComboBox popup could close before the start of my processing.
The direction I am currently headed: I notice that when the mouse clicks, and when enter is hit, the JComboBox popup closes. Since these are the 2 user events I want to respond to, this fact interests me greatly. Is there any way to see and use the event of the popup closing?
Note: I don't care so much about the direction I am thinking now as much as a solution to the overall problem.

Try to register a KeyListener to the JComboBox or to its editor (if its editable) and react to the keyReleased Event. In the corresponding listener method you have to query the key typed and react to the ENTER key being pressed. Also get away from the ItemListener as the JComboBox / ItemListene combination is not the best the guys at sun farbricated...

  • My computer asked me to upload Itunes.  I had recently converted to windows 8.  When I went ot sync with my iphone it took off all of my music previously purchased and entered only the recent purchases.  I see that Icloud has the music but I cant access

    I logged into Apple support and clicked on Itunes to go to my account.  Instead it instructed me to upload itunes to my computer.  I recently upgraded to Windows 8.  I uploaded and puchased some music to add.  When I went to synce and add all music to my iphone it deleted my play lists and added the new only.  I see my playlist is saved on icloud but I cannot get to it either.  What can I due to get all music back?

    Syncing with a new iTunes library will remove content from the device and replace it with content from the new library.
    Put the content desired into iTunes on the new computer.
    iDevices are NOT backup devices.

  • Why can I not submit a question to the feedback page? I selected the sad face and entered my details but the submit betton remained greyed out.

    In the previous version of Firefox when I quit I was always asked if I want to save tabs and if I said yes my tabs were saved for next time. The new version works the other way asking if I want to restore y last session, which is fine except: I received an update request from SKYPE while Firefox was closed. There was a link to find out more about the new version which automatically opened Firefox with just one tab; the info on the update. None of my previous tabs were available. Some of them have been open for months and there were at least 10 or 15 open tabs.When I closed Firefox of course Firefox saved the latest tab and asked me if I wanted to restore previous session. Of course I want to restore my previous session but not the single tab with the SKYPE update info. Is there any way to go back to my previous, previous session? I can't even remember what the tabs were, at least not all of them so what is one to do now?

    When an external application opens Firefox with a single tab, don't close Firefox before hitting '''Restore Previous Session''' in the History menu.

  • How to print in black and white only on hp photosmart 6520

    Cannot find a place to select print in black and white only on my HP Photosmart 6520 printer.
    It prints color just fine, but sometimes I do not want to use my color cartridges. I selected B&W instead of gray scale, but cannot stop the color printing.
    Thanks

  • Bluetooth Trouble With Mouse and Keyboard

    Symptoms of problem: Message indicating that mouse is not connected. Mouse becomes inoperable.
    Related clues:
    After selecting "Browse Device" from the Menu Bar, Bluetooth icon, drop-down menu, the mouse is listed in the Browse Device window...the keyboard is not listed. The message "Searching for Devices - 0 Found", followed by "Found - 0 Devices" appears every few seconds.
    When the Bluetooth icon in the System Preferences is selected, both the mouse and the keyboard are shown to be - On, Discoverable, Paired, and Connected.
    There would seen to be nothing interfering with the signal, although I did enable a new 1.9 GHz wireless phone system just prior to experiencing the Mouse trouble.
    ???

    So the first thing that I would do is disable the phone system and see if the issue goes away. If it does you most likely have your answer to the cause. However, BT is supposed to be confined to the license-free ISM band at 2.402-2.480 GHz which would seem to be well away from the phone's frequency.

  • If I have a document that is 10 pages and I only want to print pages 2.4.6 how can i select just those. The selection button is grayed out

    i want to print only selected pages not the whole document.. HELP

    Firefox allows printing of a'' range of pages'', for example, page 2 to 5. But not a non-contiguous set of pages.
    Firefox allows you to print a ''selection'', but by that Firefox means the part of the page you selected with the mouse or keyboard, so again, a continuous range.
    If you don't want to print 3 times, I suggest using a PDF printer driver as an intermediary. Then you can print any individual pages you like using the much more full-featured print dialog in Adobe Reader or Adobe Acrobat.
    If you do not have one, here are two free PDF printer drivers I have used:
    * PrimoPDF - http://www.primopdf.com/
    * PDF Creator - http://www.pdfforge.org/pdfcreator
    If you are just printing for quick reference and don't mind a "trial edition" banner on your PDF, I really like this one due to its handy preview-before-save feature:

  • Can we modify the pnp selection screen and get only month and year?

    Dear Freinds,
                  I have requirement where i have to modify the PNP selection screen. So with the help of report category and coding in AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT  , i have modified all the fields relating to dates . i.e i have removed all the radio buttons (i.e Today, Current month,current year etc) and finally
    i have landed with only Period ( PNPBEGDA & PNPENDDA range) . But i dont want the PNPBEGDA & PNPENDDA range , but i want only is the month and year ( i.e just like the PNPPABRP & PNPPABRJ)
    on my selection screen along with the pernr .
    i have used the below code to close all the fields except pnpbegda and pnpendda.
    AT Selection-Screen output.
    loop at screen.
      IF screen-group4 = '098' .
          screen-input = '0'.
          screen-invisible = '1'.
        ENDIF.
        IF screen-group4 = '092' .
          screen-input = '0'.
          screen-invisible = '1'.
        ENDIF.
        IF screen-group4 = '094' .
          screen-input = '0'.

        ENDIF.
        IF screen-group4 = '104' .
          screen-input = '0'.
          screen-invisible = '1'.
        ENDIF.
        MODIFY SCREEN.
    endloop.
    i.e on my selection screen i want only  month & year combination and pernr -
    when iam using the logical database PNP . Could any one please let me know how can i get only mon & year only on my selection screen .
    If it is possible please let me know .
    Thanks & regards
    divya.

    Hi ,
       The requirement is that the user doesnt want to enter the date range i.e for ex:  01012008 to 31012008.
    As per the requirement the user will enter only the month and year only . so i on the selection screen
    i want only the month and year only . Is there any means i can modify the date period which is there by
    default (PNPbegda and PNPendda) on PNP selection screen. Instead of we givign to the user the
    PNPBEGDA and PNPPENDA i want is only month and year .
    AS already the code has already been written and now they have asked that they want only the month and year on the selection screen.
    Please suggest me in this regard.If iam hiding all the buttons relating the dates fields, and now if iam adding the parameters for the month and year  it is coming below below the fields pernr , personnel ara and subara , company code , payroll area, employee group of the standard fields of PNP selection screen , there by any body could please suggest me how to change.
    regards
    divya.

    I just remembered I have a couple of screen snaps online to explain how
    it's done:
    1. place your base image and name it in the inspector
    2. from the smart objects palette grab the head action item, the one
    with a question mark in its upper, green half - the 2nd one from the
    left. Drop that into the pages head section.
    3. in the inspector set the action to run OnLoad and select the base
    image that you named in the first step and set the other parameters.
    This was done in the days of GL6, but not much had changed in GL CS.
    Anyway you might also refer to GL's online help. It describes how to set
    up all the actions that ship with GL.

  • Less-mouse and text selection

    I needed to scroll man pages with a mouse so I compiled the less-mouse from the AUR .
    Unfortunately the ability to use mouse for text selection is now lost (comparing to regular 'less'). In regular less left-button-drag selects stream of text and ctrl-left-button-drag selects a block of text.
    I tried to look closely at the patch to try to filter back in the text selection but my knowledge of C just isn't up to it.
    Mouse clicks in less-mouse are putting escape sequences in the status line. To get rid of those I managed to add two lines in decode.c, so that the program now processes only wheel events:
    decode.c (patched) at line 934:
    if ((b & 0x60) != 0x60) // only if bit 6 is 1 which means no wheel event
    return (1); // stop processing current mouse event
    // *hoping* that vte or X or whoever parses it further?
    I'd very much like to hear the advice on how to reinstate the ability of 'less-mouse' to select text.
    ps. I tried to use w3m as a pager too, but as far as I could tell it doesn't have the ability to select text either.

    Vimpager allows scrolling man pages with the mouse (its in the repos ( community/vimpager )). Install it and add this to your .zshrc (or .bashrc if you use bash):
    export PAGER=vimpager
    alias less=$PAGER
    alias zless=$PAGER

  • Why cant I highlight part of a document and print only what is selected in safari?

    Why is it not possible to highlight and print the selection in Safari, thought the imac was supposed to do everything,  WRONG.
    I also have I.pad 2 and because it does not support adobe flash, I cannot open a magazine that I have each week, I have to do this on the imac, so when away from home it again doesnt do what I want it to.  Does everything people say.  WRONG AGAIN.
    Should have stuck with the laptop, it actually does do these things mentioned above.

    I purchased the iPad first and waited a year HOPING Apple would fix this problem OR at the least provide something comparable to WINDOWS!
    WRONG....and yes it is hard to believe for how ADVANCED Apple is.....that they don't have a simple easy program that allows you to HIGHLIGHT and PRINT ONLY what you highlight!
    But....they are making leaps and bounds.....at least you can now cut & paste....thats a good thing!?
    HOPEFULLY.......in the VERY,VERY NEAR FUTURE Apple will supply us with the simple software to do these simple time saving chores!
    (highlight and print ONLY what you highlight)
    Until then we have to cut and paste to several different apps or programs....hoping it will allow you to print ONLY WHAT THE USER WANTS TO PRINT!

I just recentely got AT&T.  When I had verizon before and my phone got disconnected it allowed me to still iMessage off my number.

    If your phone service is disconnected, it's not your number any more.
    If you "just got AT&T", how can it be disconnected?

    When I connect my Macbook Pro to my Dell DLP projector, either via cable or wirelessly, I just see a dark screen with the mouse and mouse trails only, can any one help?

    jpmarkques post is a good start point, after folling his directions, you can try detect displays. Also try different rsolution and refresh rates.
    Most of the projectors I have used support a 1024X768 res.
    Youcan also try a pram reset if it still does not detect.
    Leave theproctor connected and powered up, power down the MBP.
    Power back up the MBP and hold the following keys before you hear the start up chime:
    Option, command, P,R (no commas) continue to hold these keys till you hear the start up chime 2 times.

  • When i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs

    when i connect my iphone to my laptop and open itunes it shows my iphone has nothing on it(no music, no movies, etc...) then when i try to sync it says iphone is is full and can only put in a selected amount of songs. Take in mind this is my first time to sync with this laptop(HP 15 ENVY) and as well my laptop is just brand new. just got it a week ago. so how do i fix this prob. and also when i open my itunes store and then view my account it says error occurred either debug it through Microsoft visual studio or close program. I tired copying all the .dll files to the itunes folder didn't help

    I cannot address the sync services error right now, but the error that you receive when you change from sync to manually manage music is what happens when you change. Once you change to manually manage music, it erases all of the music and will only put the music that you want on the phone, content that you manually drag over to it. See if this support document helps you out. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1535
