JRadioButton Problem

I'm having a problem using JRadioButtons.
I can get the background color to change, but is there anyway for the circle part of the radio button to remain solid.
I.e. if I set the background of the radio button to blue, how do I keep the color of the circle to white, or something other than the background of the button.

setBorderPainted(boolean b)
Sets the borderPainted property.
I Think U can Try This

  • JRadioButton problem...could you help me please?!?

    I've an array of JRadioButton tha are created in a "for struct" but when I try to add an ActionListener the compiler don't like that!!
    here is when I create JRadio button:
    for (cnt = 0; cnt < items; cnt++) {
    cmdID = (int)rMsg.getCIdAt(cnt);
    System.out.println(cmdID);
    radio[cnt] = new JRadioButton(cmdID + ": " + rMsg.getCNameAt(cnt), false);
    radio[cnt].setBackground(new java.awt.Color (250, 250, 200));
    radio[cnt].addActionListener(this); // here comes the problem
    And this is what the compiler sent out:
    ui/ShowMachine.java:95: addActionListener(java.awt.event.ActionListener) in javax.swing.AbstractButton cannot be applied to (ui.ShowMachine)
    radio[cnt].addActionListener(this);

    I'm sorry the source code was not completed (copy and paste error... ;o) )
    this is the right source:
    radio = new JRadioButton[items];
    ButtonGroup group = new ButtonGroup();
    JPanel ButtonPanel = new JPanel();
    for (cnt = 0; cnt < items; cnt++) {
    cmdID = (int)rMsg.getCIdAt(cnt);
    System.out.println(cmdID);
    radio[cnt] = new JRadioButton(cmdID + ": " + rMsg.getCNameAt(cnt), false);
    radio[cnt].setBackground(new java.awt.Color (250, 250, 200));
    radio[cnt].addActionListener(this); // here comes the problem
    group.add(radio[cnt]);
    ButtonPanel.add(radio[cnt]);
    Compilation ERROR it's reported in my first message!
    thank's for the help
    bye

    Thank you for all replies!
    Regards !

    You where given an answer in your previous posting. The answer was to search the forum. You where even given the keywords to use. You have waited a day for an answer when you could have had the answer in a couple of minutes if you bothered to do a quick search of the forum first.

  • Problem with JRadioButton

    I have got on a JPanel 2 JRadioButtons link in a ButtonGroup.
    I have also a JTextField.
    Problem: when i have the focus on my JTextField i want
    1. my JRadioButtons to be setEnable(false)->OK!
    2. and i don't want to keep the selection of JButtonRadios.( i dopn't want to keep a selection , i just want something without selection)
    Can you help me please.

    A ButtonGroup is done to have one and only one button select. So You can't do what you want whithout a trick. I sugest you to make a class whtich extends AbstractButton and does nothing. Add it in the group, and select it. I know it's not a very good solution, but it's the one I see for the moment. I looking for another solution.

  • Problem for JRadioButton

    Hi :
    In my applet, I created 3 image radio buttons, using syntex like this:
    JRadioButton Ybutton = new JRadioButton(new ImageIcon(getImage,("./gif/yaxis.gif")));
    than added these 3 buttons into a ButtonGroup. The applet runs without problems in JBuilder testbed. However, if I run it though IE, the push-down effect is gone!
    it act just like a button. I was expecting that if I push one button down, the other will pops up, which is what I saw in Jbuilder environement.
    Any suggestion??
    thank you!

  • JRadioButton Event Handling Problem

    I'm having trouble getting my JRadioButtons to work. They appear and function, but when I click them, they don't do what they should. I used e.getActionCommand() to get the string name of the JRadioButton, and I used e.getSource() to compare it to the name of the radiobutton, which is the same as the text of the button. I read in one of the tutorials that a JRadioButton fires an action event and an item event. Should I use an item event? I'm trying to perform certain actions based on which button is selected. This code sets the string radioname to the name of the button selected, which I later use to perform other actions. I get major errors when I try changing things, because I don't really know how the buttons work. Thanks.
    private JRadioButton d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7,d8,d9;
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
    if (e.getSource() == "d0" || e.getSource() == "d1"                || e.getSource() == "d2" || e.getSource() == "d3"                || e.getSource() == "d4" || e.getSource() == "d5"                || e.getSource() == "d6" || e.getSource() == "d7"                || e.getSource() == "d8" || e.getSource() == "d9")
         radioname = e.getActionCommand();
              System.out.println(radioname);
              System.out.println("radio event fired");
    }

    I tried that, but that gives me a bunch of error messages, mostly from java.awt about dispatch events and dispatch threads when I click one of the buttons. Does it have something to do with the ButtonGroup the JRadioButtons are in? This is the end of the errors, which is all I can view.

  • A JRadioButton Listener problem!

    Here is a situation, Trying to create a JRadioButton Listener for kinda multiple choice Quiz. Questions and answers are written to the respective RadioButtons from a text file.
    So once a button is selected, it should check if the selected button is the correct answer(getCorrectAnswer() returns the correct answer)to the particular question, if it is then it updates a score JTextField and also status JTextField otherwise just the status JTextField.
    Below is the RadioButtonListener doesn't do what it is suppose to do i.e no effect on score & status JTextField.
    Any suggestions to why or where I am going wrong?
    //Listener for RADIOBUTTONS
    class RadioButtonListener implements ItemListener
    public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e)
    for (int i=0; i<v.size(); i++)
    QAs A = (QAs) v.elementAt(i);
    if (e.getSource() == checkbox1)
    if (checkbox1.equals(A.getCorrectAnswer()))
    statusText.setText("Correct!");
    scoreText.setText(score + " ");
    score++;
    else
    statusText.setText("Incorrect");
    else if(e.getSource() == checkbox2)
    if (checkbox2.equals(A.getCorrectAnswer()))
    statusText.setText("Correct!");
    scoreText.setText(score + " ");
    score++;
    else
    statusText.setText("Incorrect");
    else if(e.getSource() == checkbox3)
    if (checkbox3.equals(A.getCorrectAnswer()))
    statusText.setText("Correct!");
    scoreText.setText(score + " ");
    score++;
    else
    statusText.setText("Incorrect");
    } // END OF FOR LOOP
    } // END OF itemStateChanged METHOD
    } // END OF RadioButtonListener CLASS

    you may try this:
    public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e) {
        if (e.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.SELECTED) {
            //do something
        } else {
            //do something
    }

  • JRadioButton setSelected problem

    Hi,
    I am trying to change the status of my JRadio buttons to false, but they do not get updated. One of them still remains selected.
    Any ideas?
    radioButton1.setSelected(false);
    radioButton2.setSelected(false);

    This should be posted in the Swing forum, not the Java 2D forum.
    Regardless, if you are using Java 1.6, then I recommend that you call clearSelection on the ButtonGroup object. If you are not using Java 1.6, then you can always add to your button group another invisible jradiobutton and set its selected property to true.

  • Problem in Setting Background Color for JButton

    Hi,
    I am using Background color for JButton (color is selected from the customized JColorChooser created by us) where it contains the option of transparency. If we choose light color, then the background is set to JButton, but when we mouse-over the JButton, other components inside the container (JPanel) is getting displayed inside the button.
    Can anyone help to sort out this problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Here is the code.
    DialogWrapper is JDialog and ColorEditorPane is JPanel.
    DialogWrapper     dlg         = new DialogWrapper();
    ColorEditorPane colorPanel = new ColorEditorPane();
    colorPanel.setValue( _data.getTransparentColor());
    dlg.showWrappedDialog( colorPanel, "color_help", "color_dialog" );
    if( dlg.isOK())
    Color chosenColor = (Color) colorPanel.getValue().getContent();

    _transparentColorDisplay.setBackground( chosenColor );
    _transparentColorDisplay.setOpaque( true );
    this.repaint();
    this.doLayout();
    this.validate();
    }I've several components like JCheckBox, JRadioButton, JTextField in "this".

  • Problem with Listeners/ requestFocus()

    Hello,
    I am new to Java (started learning two months back), There is a problem with the requestFocus() in the focusListener. The program does not return the focus to the object indicated in the requestFocus but it shows multiple cusors!!
    The faculity at the institute where I am learning could not rectify the error.
    Is the error because of the myMethod() which I am using. I had made this method to prove to my professor that we can reduce the code drastically while using the gridbaglayout.
    The code which I had written is as under:

    Would it not be acceptable to check that each field has a value when Submit is pressed. If a field is found with no data then display the error message and return the focus to the empty field. This would solve the multiple cursors problem as you would not need any focusLost handler code.
    If this is entirely out of the question then you will have to override some of the FocusManager methods to prevent the JVM from handling focus for you :
    FocusManager.setCurrentManager(new DefaultFocusManager() {
      // Override FocusManager methods here.

  • Problem in refreshing the combo box on selection of an item in another comb

    I have a situation where values to be displayed in 2nd combo box depends on the selection of an item from the 1st combo box.
    Problem observed:
    The 2nd combo box is not getting refreshed if the selected item from the 1st combo box has mapping to more than 10 items.
    for ex:
    A - AA, AB, AC, AD, AE, AF
    B - BA, BB, BC, BD, BE, BF, BG, BH, BI, BJ, BK, BL, BM, BN, BO, BP
    C - CA, CB, CC
    D - DA, DB, DC, DD
    1st combo box list:
    A
    B
    C
    D
    2nd combo box list:
    If the value selected from the first combo box is A, C, or D then 2nd combo box refreshes with repective values. But when the value selected is B, then 2nd combo box is not getting refreshed with respective values.

    the very simple strategy to do is to call removeAllItems() method for the 2nd combox box and then insert the contents. this is because the validate() method is not repeatedly called and so the contents are not updated immediately.

  • Who can help me :)--a problem with java program(reset problem in java )

    I do not know how to make the button reset,my program only could reset diagram but button.If any one who could help me to solve this problem.The problem is When the reset button is pressed, the image should immediately revert to the black square, and the 4 widgets listed above should show values that
    correspond to the black square.The code like this,first one is shapes:

    }If any kind people who can help me.
    many thanks to you!

    4 widgets???
    maybe this is what you mean.
    add this inside your actionPerformed method for the reset action
    squareButton.setSelected(true);
    colorComboBox.setSelectedIndex(0);
    if not be more clear in your post.
