JRadioButton centered align in a JTable cell

Hi,
How could we centered the JRadioButton inside a cell of a JTable? Thank you for you help.
Kind regards,
Daniel

The check box is automatically centered in a JTable, so I would think the radio button is as well.

Read up on cell renderers from the Swing tutorial on "Using Tables":

Here's an example to get you started.

JTextField/JTable-cell Button

Is there any known efficient methods of creating the JTextField or JTable-cell Button as like in Forte's Component Inspector window where you click on the property value field and the value is displayed just left of a small button labelled "..." ie: [some text field with value][...] also referred to as the "ellipsis" buttons, or will most answers to this question simply describe the layout of a JField-JButton combination? The action from clicking on the [...] button aligned right of the JTextField simply invokes or displays a larger input interface in which upon completion of the entered data, returns the input to the related JTextField.
Thanks to anybody for any help with this, and perhaps in return, I may be able to answer any non-gui java questions, or some not so unfamilliar GUI questions.

Hello StanislavL and Lutianxiong,
I remember asking this question some time ago, and the time has come again for me to seek this functionality. I have finally achieved the functionality and thought I would post the answer for anybody else. I had not realized that I had recieved a solution/reply to my original question as I come here to post the answer, and in fact, my solution does appear to be very similiar to your reply, StanislavL. As for you, Lutianxiong and other seekers of this info, here is my solution with a JFileChooser style input for the 3rd column which only shows gif,jpg and png files:

How to use Jtable cell Editor

HI,
Here trying to populate the ImageIcon using JLabel in Jtable cell. For that I used DefaultCellRenderer. For implement the mouseListener to label I used the DefaultCellEditor. I am facing one problem here. After editing the label I selected the second row of the table, the first row image is not displaying. Can any one help on this issue?
public class LabelCellEditor extends DefaultCellEditor {
public LabelCellEditor(final JCheckBox checkBox) {
super(checkBox);
public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(final JTable table, final Object value,
final boolean isSelected, final int row, final int column) {
Color background = null;
background = ColorManager.SELECTED_ROW_BGCOLOR;
labelVal = (JLabel) value;
labelVal.setOpaque(true);
labelVal.setFont(FontManager.TABLE_DATA_FONT);
labelVal.setBackground(background);
labelPanel = new JPanel();
labelPanel.setOpaque(true);
labelPanel.setBackground(background);
labelPanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT));
labelPanel.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 0, 0, 0));
labelPanel.add(labelVal);
return this.labelPanel;

labelVal.setFont(FontManager.TABLE_DATA_FONT);
labelVal.setBackground(background);
labelVal.setHorizontalAlignment(this.align);
labelVal.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(0, LRPADD, 0, LRPADD));

}

With more than 30 postings you should know by now how to use the "Code" tags when posting code so the code reatains its original formatting and is therefore more readable.
There is no need to create a custom editor, here is a simple example.

JTable cell under Mouse positin?

I have a need to update a control with information about a JTable cell that is currently under the Mouse pointer.
No clicking, just moving the mouse around updates the other control with information depending on which cell is currently under the Mouse pointer.
How Can I translate a mouse position into a row,col for the cell?

Generally I assume these kinds of problems are either obvious problems in my code (at least, obvious to other people) or obscure interactions that are are royal PITA to track down.
Apparently not in this case.

Horizontal align center in table-cell

Hello,
I'm having a problem getting to horizontally align a div (schilderij) in another div (schilderijholder).
This schilderij div has a height and width of 480px and has display: table-cell. The content of this div is an image, with different sizes on every page (there are multiple pages, it is some sort of photogallery). The images are nicely centered, horizontally and vertically, inside this div.
The containing div (schilderijholder), has a width of 100% of it's containing block, which has a variable size
The problem is, I cant get the schilderij div horizontally centered in the schilderijholder div.
Here's the simplified code. If you need the whole code, I can post that too.
    <div class="leftWrapper" style="clear: none; float: left; width: 68%; height: 100%;">
    <div class="content" style="margin: 40 10 50 30;">
      <div id="schilderijholder" style="text-align: center; width: 100%; height: 100%;">
          <div id="schilderij" style=" height: 480px; width: 480px; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; display: table-cell;">
            <img src="../Assets/Schilderijen/normal/01.jpg" width="399" height="480" align="center" />
            </div>
          </div>
        <div id="pageControl">
        <span class="left">
          <a href="schilderijen2.html"></a> </span>
          <span class="right">
          <a href="02.html">Volgende</a>
            </span>
          </div>
      </div>
     </div>
What I've tried:
     - "margin: 0 auto;" on the schilderij div
     - "position: relative;" on the schilderijholder div and "position: absolute; left: 50%; margin-left: -240px;" on the schilderij div
But these both don't work.
Does anybody know a solution for this, or maybe has something to put me on the right way?
Thanks in advance!

Let's fix your code first:
<div class="leftWrapper" style="float: left; width: 68%; height: 100%;">
    <div class="content" style="margin: 40px 10px 50px 30px;">
      <div id="schilderijholder" style="text-align: center; width: 100%; height: 100%;">
          <div id="schilderij" style=" height: 480px; width: 480px; text-align: center; vertical-align: middle; display: table-cell;">
            <img src="../Assets/Schilderijen/normal/01.jpg" width="399" height="480" align="center" />
            </div>
          </div>
        <div id="pageControl">
        <span class="left">
          <a href="schilderijen2.html"></a> </span>
          <span class="right">
          <a href="02.html">Volgende</a>
            </span>
          </div>
      </div>
     </div>
Why do you need the div#schilderij at all? Seems unnecessary to me.
Then you would need the display:table-cell on the parent to this div, not on the div#schilderij, which has basically the same dimensions as the image. But I think this is all too complicated. Why not just this?
<div class="leftWrapper" style="float: left; width: 68%;">
    <div class="content" style="margin: 40px 10px 50px 30px;">
      <div id="schilderijholder" style="text-align: center;">
            <img src="../Assets/Schilderijen/normal/01.jpg" width="399" height="480" align="center" />
            </div>
          </div>
        <div id="pageControl">
        <span class="left">
          <a href="schilderijen2.html"></a> </span>
          <span class="right">
          <a href="02.html">Volgende</a>
            </span>
          </div>
      </div>
     </div>

Can not show the JCheckBox in JTable cell

I want to place a JCheckBox in one JTable cell, i do as below:
i want the column "d" be a check box which indicates "true" or "false".
String[] columnNames = {"a","b","c","d"};
Object[][] rowData = {{"", "", "", Boolean.FALSE}};
tableModel = new DefaultTableModel(rowData, columnNames);
dataTable = new JTable(tableModel);
dataTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(3).setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(new JCheckBox()));
But when i run it, the "d" column show the string "false" or "true", not the check box i wanted.
I do not understand it, can you help me?
Thank you very much!

Do not use DefaultTableModel, create your own table model and you should implement the method
getColumnClass to display the boolean as checkbox ...
I hope the following colde snippet helps you :
class MyModel extends AbstractTableModel {
          private String[] columnNames = {"c1",
"c2"};
public Object[][] data ={{Boolean.valueOf(true),"c1d1"}};
     public int getColumnCount() {
     //System.out.println("Calling getColumnCount");
     return columnNames.length;
public int getRowCount() {
//System.out.println("Calling row count");
return data.length;
public String getColumnName(int col) {
return columnNames[col];
public Object getValueAt(int row, int col) {
return data[row][col];
* JTable uses this method to determine the default renderer/
* editor for each cell. If we didn't implement this method,
* then the last column would contain text ("true"/"false"),
* rather than a check box.
public Class getColumnClass(int c) {
return getValueAt(0, c).getClass();
* Don't need to implement this method unless your table's
* editable.
public boolean isCellEditable(int row, int col) {
//Note that the data/cell address is constant,
//no matter where the cell appears onscreen.
return true;
* Don't need to implement this method unless your table's
* data can change.
public void setValueAt(Object value, int row, int col) {
data[row][col] = value;
fireTableCellUpdated(row, col);

Shading part of a JTable Cell dependent upon the value of the cell

Hi
Was hoping some one woudl be able to provide some help with this. I'm trying to create a renderer that will "shade" part of a JTable cell's background depending upon the value in the cell as a percentage (E.g. if the cell contains 0.25 then a quarter of the cell background will be shaded)
What I've got so far is a renderer which will draw a rectangle whose width is the relevant percentage of the cell's width. (i.e. the width of the column) based on something similar I found in the forum but the part I'm struggling with is getting it to draw this rectangle in any cell other than the first cell. I've tried using .getCellRect(...) to get the x and y position of the cell to draw the rectangle but I still can't make it work.
The code for my renderer as it stands is:
import java.awt.Component;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.TableCellRenderer;
public class PercentageRepresentationRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer{
     double percentageValue;
     double rectWidth;
     double rectHeight;
     JTable table;
     int row;
     int column;
     int x;
     int y;
     public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
          if (value instanceof Number)
               this.table = table;
               this.row = row;
               this.column = column;
               Number numValue = (Number)value;
               percentageValue = numValue.doubleValue();
               rectHeight = table.getRowHeight(row);
               rectWidth = percentageValue * table.getColumnModel().getColumn(column).getWidth();
          return this;
     public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        x = table.getCellRect(row, column, false).x;
        y = table.getCellRect(row, column, false).y;
          setOpaque(false);
        Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;
        g2d.fillRect(x,y, new Double(rectWidth).intValue(), new Double(rectHeight).intValue());
        super.paintComponent(g);
}and the following code produces a runnable example:
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.JTable;
import javax.swing.table.DefaultTableModel;
public class PercentageTestTable extends JFrame {
     public PercentageTestTable()
          Object[] columnNames = new Object[]{"A","B"};
          Object[][] tableData = new Object[][]{{0.25,0.5},{0.75,1.0}};
          DefaultTableModel testModel = new DefaultTableModel(tableData,columnNames);
          JTable test = new JTable(testModel);
          test.setDefaultRenderer(Object.class, new PercentageRepresentationRenderer());
          JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane();
          scroll.getViewport().add(test);
          add(scroll);
     public static void main(String[] args)
          PercentageTestTable testTable = new PercentageTestTable();
          testTable.pack();
          testTable.setVisible(true);
          testTable.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}If anyone could help or point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

How to write an element in a JTable Cell

Probably it's a stupid question but I have this problem:
I have a the necessity to build a JTable in which, when I edit a cell and I push a keyboard button, a new Frame opens to edit the content of the cell.
But the problem is how to write something in the JTable cell, before setting its model. Because, I know, setCellAT() method of JTree inserts the value in the model and not in the table view. And repainting doesn't function!
What to do??
Thanks

Hi there
Depending on your table model you should normally change the "cell value" of the tablemodel.
This could look like:
JTable table = new JTable();
TableModel model = table.getModel();
int rowIndex = 0, columnIndex = 0;
model.setValueAt("This is a test", rowIndex, columnIndex);
The tablemodel should then fire an event to the view (i.e. JTable) and the table should be updated.
Hope this helps you

How to select rows in the inner JTable rendered in an outer JTable cell

I have wrriten the following code for creating cell specific renderer - JTable rendered in a cell of a JTable.
table=new JTable(data,columnNames)
public TableCellRenderer getCellRenderer(int row, int column)
if ((row == 0) && (column == 0))
return new ColorRenderer();
else if((row == 1) && (column == 0))
return new ColorRenderer1();
else
return super.getCellRenderer(row, column);
ColorRenderer and ColorRenderer1 are two inner classes, which implement TableCellRenderer to draw inner JTable on the outer JTable cell, having 2 rows and 1 column each.
Now what is happening the above code keeps executing continously, that is the classes are being initialised continously, inner JTables are rendered (drawn) continously, and this makes the application slow after some time. It throws java.lang.OutOfMemoryException.
WHY IS IT SO??? I can't understand where's the bug..
Any advice please???
Moreover i want selections in inner tables and not on outer table, how can this be possible.
I am working on this since a long time but have not yet found a way out...

With your help i have overcome the problem of continous repeatition.
The major problem which I am facing is, in selecting rows in the inner rendered JTables.
I have added listener on outer JTable which select rows on the outer JTable, hence the complete inner JTable which being treated as a row, gets selected.
The thing is i need to select the rows of inner rendered JTables,not the outer JTable.
How to go about it??
I have even added listener to inner rendered JTables, but only first row of every table gets selected.
Please help....
Thanks in advance.

Thanks

In summary, you have one or more columns for which the data must be wholly visible - correct? If you need all the columns to show the whole of their data, you are goinf to have to expand the table, otherwise you can expand a column with something like
myTable.getColumnModel().getColumn(whichever).setPreferredWidth(whatever);

I think Problem is between these code only
for(int k=0;k<columnCount;k++)
               TableCellRenderer renderer = null;
               TableCellEditor editor = null;

class TextAreaCellRenderer extends JTextArea implements TableCellRenderer
     public TextAreaCellRenderer() {
          setEditable(false);
          setLineWrap(true);
