I created this program to call bingo numbers. When you start the program a small frame appears that tells you how to use the program. When you click the button that frame is disposed and a new one appears that call the numbers. Both of these frames have code in them that will find the dimensions of your screen and put the frames in the center. When you press enter a new number is called by changing the number from white (same color as background) to red. Once all 75 numbers have been called it resets the game. If you press R at anytime during the game the game resets. I had wanted to create a new frame that would display how to play in the middle of the game. It had to be different than the one at the beginning where it doesn't have the button and it isn't in the driver class (class Caller). If you press H at anytime after it starts calling numbers the new frame will be displayed. I have a class (DrawFrame) that extends JFrame but that had the default close operation set to EXIT_ON_CLOSE and I didn't want the program to terminate when the user clicked the x in the how to play frame. I created DrawFrame2 to solve this problem where the only line of code that is different is that the default close operation is DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE. The name of the class I used for the new how to play frame is Rules. The code in this class should work but for some reason the JLabel isn't displaying. Can someone please help me out?
I just copied the code from class Caller into Rules and reworked it a bit and it worked.

Parts of applet won't display until later
I have this very simple applet (a clock) and everything is working the way is should except that the image of my clock won't display until I press one of the buttons.
here's part of the code:
public class horlogeVue extends JApplet{
public void init(){
Container c = getContentPane();
c.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
hourPlus = new JButton("h+");
... (more buttons)
hour = new JLabel("heure");
minute = new JLabel("minute");
seconde = new JLabel("seconde");
c.add(hour);
hModele = new horlogeModele(this);
hControle = new horlogeControle(hModele);
hourPlus.addActionListener(hControle.new hourP());
public void display(int timeH, int timeM, int timeS){
time = "heure="+timeH+", minute="+timeM+", seconde="+timeS;
repaint();
public void paint(Graphics g){
super.paint(g);
g.drawString(time, 100, 75);
g.drawArc(xcenter-50, ycenter-50, 100, 100, 0, 360);
g.drawString("9", xcenter-45, ycenter+3);
g.drawString("3", xcenter+40, ycenter+3);
g.drawString("12", xcenter-5, ycenter-37);
g.drawString("6", xcenter-3, ycenter+45);
xs = (int) (Math.cos(timeS * Math.PI / 30 - Math.PI / 2) * 45 + xcenter);
ys = (int) (Math.sin(timeS * Math.PI / 30 - Math.PI / 2) * 45 + ycenter);
xm = (int) (Math.cos(timeM * Math.PI / 30 - Math.PI / 2) * 40 + xcenter);
ym = (int) (Math.sin(timeM * Math.PI / 30 - Math.PI / 2) * 40 + ycenter);
xh = (int) (Math.cos((timeH *30 + timeM / 2) * Math.PI / 180 - Math.PI / 2) * 30 + xcenter);
yh = (int) (Math.sin((timeH *30 + timeM / 2) * Math.PI / 180 - Math.PI / 2) * 30 + ycenter);
g.drawLine(xcenter, ycenter, xh, yh);
g.drawLine(xcenter, ycenter, xm, ym);
g.drawLine(xcenter, ycenter, xs, ys);
So, yeah, basically how do I display all the stuff in paint as soon as I open my applet?To get best help with any problem, I recommend posting an SSCCE rather than 'part of the code'.
<http://www.physci.org/codes/sscce.html>
Also, when posting code, using a little indent and [src][src] elements around it (where you would change 'src' to 'code' to show any text between the two as formatted source code) makes it a lot more readable as well.
But as a general comment on the code. It is not usually a good idea to override the paint() of a root level component, I would recommend a JComponent/JPanel instead.
The JPanel(JComponent) can then be used in the JApplet, JFrame, JDialog, JOptionPane, JWindow.. as needed. -
I use a website for work that displays every person schedule and it often has to display a | character but instead Firefox puts a small empty box in its place, which wouldn't be too bad but it messes up the aligment of everything.
Actually I was wrong its a and a that it won't display.
(its supposed to be an up arrow and an vertical line with a horizontal line coming out from the right in the middle)

JButton subclass won't display
I have defined XYButton as a subclass of JButton that contains some coordinate (x,y) information. For some reason, when adding my XYButtons to my frame, I only ever get one button. Whereas when I add regular JButtons, they get added as expected. Why? What's wrong with my code?
public class XYButton extends JButton {
private int x;
private int y;
public XYButton(int x, int y) {
this.x = x; this.y = y;
public int getX() {
return x;
public int getY() {
return y;
}The code that uses XYButton is as follows:
myFrame = new JFrame("Weird button behavior!");
Container container = myFrame.getContentPane();
container.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
container.add(new XYButton(0,0)); //will display
container.add(new JButton("3"));
container.add(new XYButton(0,1)); //won't display!!!!!! why?
container.add(new Button("4"));
container.add(new Button("5"));
container.add(new Button("6"));
myFrame.pack();
myFrame.setVisible(true);Thanks in advance for any help!Hi,
This is because that the values which you are passing is considered as the X-co-ordinate and Y-Coordinate because of which when you provide
(0,0) you are able to see the Button
but when(0,1) is given button is created on the panel,instead you cant see it since it is exactly at the back of the (0,0) button.Kind of overlapping is taking place.
If there is any wrong from my suggestion/help,request all to correct me.
Thanks
regards,

Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?
Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?
yes styles are applied. What does not show up are the container divs - they all have the thin purple borders.
The "Blog Lovers" image shows up but it is inside the #blogindex div - which seems to be invisible because the elements inside #blogindex div are just piled on top of each other. (see below html) This is now happening on all the pages of this site.
(I test a different site in DW and I was able to add divs and borders and content inside divs just fine.)

I've got a head-scratcher here.
We're updating an older Flex 3 project (3.6 SDK) and have (mostly) succussfully migrated the project to FB4.5 but we're sticking with the 3.6 SDK.
One particular element of this project is a masthead which we publish as a .swc from Flash 5.5 after using the "Convert Symbol to Flex Component" command. I've also written a simple class for this masthead component so we can get at some interal properties.
The .swc isn't visible at all. It's there, I've confirmed that using the debugger but it won't display. I've even tried pulling it into a bare-bones project file using both the old 3.6 SDK and the 4.5 SDK. Nothing.
Maybe I'm follow an old workflow for bringing Flash elements into Flash Builder?
I noticed there are two Flex Component kits, but I'm pretty sure Flash 5.5 already has the Flex Component kit built-in. Yes?
Toughts?Hi,
You mentioned that this was a project you migrated over to FB 4.6,
correct? Chances are that even though you have the swc in your lib
folder, the project properties are pointing to a version of the swc in a
different location.
Choose Project > Properties > Flex Build Path >Library Path and then
click the swc that's having problems, click "Edit" on the right, and
confirm that it's pointing to the correct location.

Pavilion g6 updated to windows 8.1 now tv won't display the screen
I cracked the screen of my HP Pavilion g6, so I usually connect it through HDMI to my Coby TV and it usually worked fine. Now, after updating to Windows 8.1, my TV won't display anything. I believe it is because the screen is black, and my TV never displayed a black screen before, it only showed the screen once the laptop has started up. I've tried pressing f4 and i can see that the screen is blue in the small area of my screen that still works, but it still isn't showing through my TV so I don't know how I can fix this problem because I cannot see the screen. Please help!
Hi ke11ie,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using the forum, it is a great place to find answers. For you to have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that after upgrading to Windows 8.1 your external display(CobyTV) is not working. Just to rule out the TV if you connect to a different display does it work?
Here is a link to Connecting a Monitor, Projector or TV (Windows 8).
Here is a link to Display Quality Issues, that may also be of aid.
I hope this helps.

Mac Pro 2006 won't display anything
Hi
My mac pro won't display anything. I've had a look at this http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1573 and one of the first things I did was reset the PRAM & NVRAM. The 10.6.8 install is fully updated. The startup chime plays and fans run normally.
I have:
re-sat the RAM,
cleaned the RAM
cleaned the inside
removed all the HDDs except the main one
and even used another Raedon 4850 in place of mine.
It starts up in Target-Disk mode fine, I am using it with my iMac now but it is not the same (iMac is only dual core andhas half the RAM) I've tried several screens; DVI, VGA and HDMI all without luck. It's obviouslt out of warranty and I don't want to take it to a Apple store anyway as I ocassionally build & repair computers myself so am fine with trying anything out.
Thanks in advance,
Eric.
Things I could do/ haven't done:
Remove/ replace the Logic Board battery?
test the power I/O?
start in Safe Mode?Whoa there, sparky !!!
Is there something you aren't mentioning?
Since there has never been a Mac Pro 4850 and you have mentioned this number twice I would like to ask...what aren't you telling us?
Did this computer work fine until one day it quit? Or did you buy/inherit/find it broken or in an unknown state?
Any GPU used in a Mac Pro needs to have EFI on it to do this basic debugging stuff. While PC WIndows BIOS cards can be used if the system is A-OK and gets to desktop, it is basically impossible to use them on a system with issues.
So, if the 4870 has a DVI and a MDP port it is real Apple one and SHOULD work.
If that card died and you have tried replacing it with a WIndows/PC 4850, then you have broken the scientific rule about only changing one thing.
Ideally you would have another Mac Pro to test your GPU in and another KNOWN GOOD GPU to test in your Mac Pro. The EFI thing greatly complicates things, unfortunately. Even a "Mac Pro" video card won't necessarily work if it is for "the other" series of Mac Pro. Ther have been in effect, 2 different Mac Pros as far as video cards go. EFI32 and EFI64. ATI/AMD cards have been largely unaffected by this but Nvidia cards MUST be for right series. -
My iPhone 5 won't display smart text options.
My iPhone 5 won't display smart text. It did when I initially downloaded the new OS, now those options don't appear at all. Did I click something to make them disappear?
I went into Settings to see if there was a component of it within Messages. I don't see anything.
Thoughts please.....
Thanks much
GingerAwwww......that's it....the dash! I tapped it. Tried to drag it up/down and it didn't move. Now I swiped and it's back!
So I need to remember to drag up/down and now swipe.....
Thanks much!

How do I get the audiobook onto my iphone without erasing anything?
You transfer the purchases to the computer you use to sync the iPhone. You can use a thumb drive or an external HD, etc. Read this: iTunes for Mac - How to copy purchases between computers: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1373 -
I updated to iOS 7 and now some of my apps won't display in landscape mode and they did before the update. Any ideas on how to fix it?
This could be from having restrictions enabled. Icons completely disappear when "restricted"

IMac 2.66 Radeon HD 2600 Pro: some Excel files won't display in ppt decks
Running Leopard 10.5.8 and MS Office 2004
Two iMac (8.1) 2.66 GHz with ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro video won't display some Excel files in PowerPoint decks, but iMac 1.83 GHz Core Duo will display o.k. as will MacBook Pro, MacBook, etc. Installing a trial version of Office 2008, both iMac 2.66 GHz display the PowerPoint files o.k.
I could downgrade the users to Intel iMac 1.83 GHz, or buy two copies of Office 2008 and support them, neither of which is a great solution.
Looking for a simple fix or workaround on what seems to be a video card issue. Don't seem to see this problem or a fix on the ATI site. I've googled this but haven't run into a similar issue.Well, Office 2008 is only $110 USD at http://www.amazon.com/Microsoft-Office-2008-Home-Student/dp/B000X86ZAS/ref=sr11?ie=UTF8&s=software&qid=1251560959&sr=8-1
That seems the least expensive solution to me. -

Difficulty using a projector. I have a MBP 17" and am running 10.6.8. Often I need to make a Powerpoint or other presentation at a client and I want to connect my computer to their projector. Either it won't display on the projector at all. Once it displayed but the presentation mode was on the big screen and the presentation I wanted to show was on my MBP screen. I have the adapter( white ones) to attached to the projector cables. I am so frsutrated...it looks so silly not to have a computer work during a presentation..
Another problem one the rare occasion that it shows on the screen is that the presentation does show just my desk top. Any ideas?
Thanks !You often have to turn off Mirroring to be able to set the second "screen"s resolution to something reasonable. When you do, the two screens become an "Exceeded Desktop" joined along one edge, and the Arrange pane in displays prefs can allow you to specify what edge. Initially, it will show a vacant extension of the built-in screen's desktop.
The mouse moves freely across that shared edge, and can allow you to drag the presentation window across to the the projector screen and re-size it to fit. -
This app was working fine, then suddenly it won't display any of the photos. One day the photos were there, gone the next. It still shows how many photos are there but just shows a white screen. I can't export anything to the photo album. Adding photos to existing folders yields the same result, only white screen displayed. However, I can create new albums and add photos to those without issue. Does anybody know how to recover the "missing" photo" I was going to try reinstalling the app but it's no longer available in the iTunes App Store. Thanks, Tracy
1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad
