JTabbedPane: Components before and after the tabs themselves.

I want to make Google Chrome..!
Well, really, I want to have GUI stuff up in the title pane. In particular, I want the tabs of a TabbedPane up there.
I've concluded that the easiest way to accomplish this (hopefully in a somewhat LaF-neutral way) is to set the frame to be undecorated, and instead implement my own frame with handling and all. I'd set a JFrame undecorated, and put a JTabbedPane over the entire thing, sticking the application icon to the left of the tabs, and the minimize, maximize, close buttons to the far right of the tabs themselves.
If anyone have any other suggestions to this initial problem, I would seriously appreciate to hear about them.
But given the above solution: How would I go about getting a component to the left of the tabs, and some other components to the right of the tabs, of a JTabbedPane? A LaF-neutral solution would be very much appreciated - but I have faint hopes here, so pointers for how to accomplish this using LaF-tricks will be appreciated too.
I've seen that laf-widget from kirill, https://laf-widget.dev.java.net/, does something like it (the magnifying-glass icon to the left of the tabs) for several LaFs. However, I must admit that I'm not yet well enough versed to understand how he does it - and also it seems like a somewhat complicated process, whereby one "physically" change the LaF in question (bytecode manipulates it), injecting the laf-widget stuff (and I still don't know how the JTabbedPane or TabbedPaneUI is modulated to inject that icon).
Any help or pointers will be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Endre.

Could you elaborate slightly on that? I don't get your "what's left" idea..?
I think the JTabbedPane should have this functionality built-in. It is a truly obvious need, to the extent that it has had to be solved several times by others.
From an answer to this problem on StackOverflow: The JideTabbedPane from the Jide open source parts have an setTabLeadingComponent. However, Jide doesn't manage to follow the active LaF (the installs its own UI delegate), so I don't instantly want to jump on it.

  • Appointments one hour ahead of appointments created in iCloud - both before *and* after the shift from daylight savings time

    I am in the CET timezone and my Lumia 925 on 8.1 has consistently shown appointments one hour ahead of appointments created in iCloud - both before and after the shift from daylight savings time here.
    My disappointment is compounded by the fact that I patiently waited for October, naïvely thinking the clockchange would solve things... doh.
    Look forward to your earliest solution.
    Jonny.

    There is a separate thread on this subject. It's a bug in Windows Phone 8.1. It is fixed in the upcoming Windows 8.1 Update 1 release (due Nov/Dec 2014). Alternatively, you can install the developer preview (go to Store and search for 'preview for developers'.
    You have to register as a developer though (easily done through appstudio.windows.com) or you can wait for your phone vendor (Microsoft / Nokia) to release the 'Denim' upgrade.
    For now, I don't know a decent workaround.

  • Setting/Getting Parameter Values BEFORE and AFTER the param window loads

    Hi there. My name is William Sanchez. I posted this question on Brian Wheadon's blog because I'm not sure that what we're trying to accomplish can be currently done with 2008 Crystal Report Viewer  and was wondering if a future version will support this, or if we're just missing something. I've searched through the SDK and API and can't seem to find a solution. Here's what we're trying to accomplish
    In a nutsheel: we think we need to hook into Crystal Report Viewer's parameter window from our WPF app.
    What we need to do is to be able to pass a set of default values to our parameters AND, after that's done programmatically, still display the parameter window for the report. Currently, however, after you do:
    parameterFieldDefinition.ApplyCurrentValues(currentParameterValues);
    it's as if Crystal says: Ok, we got the value, there's no need to show the parameter window anymore. This makes sense, but we need to still be able to show the parameter window to the user because all we did (from our point of view) is to pass in a default "choice". If we were to call ApplyDefaultValues() instead, the actual choices for the parameter are overriden. We basically want to make a default choice for the user from the allowed values for that parameter. But we want to still present the parameter window with the default choice already selected, plus all the other choices available for that parameter. If the crystal report has parameter1 set to false as default, we might want to programmatically set it to true, but still show false as an option on the parameter window.
    Part 2 of what we'd like to accomplish is that after the user changes any of the parameter values, and clicks OK to view the report, we'd like to catch the new parameter values in code to do something with them.
    This is why we're thinking of hooking into the parameter window so that we can tell it what we want both BEFORE it loads and AFTER the user is done...just like we can hook into the CrystalReportViewer refresh button like this:
    CrystalReportsViewer.ReportRefresh += new CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms.RefreshEventHandler(CrystalReportsViewer_ReportRefresh);
    Our app is a WPF C# .NET 3.5 desktop application. Any assistance or direction will surely be appreciated.
    Kinds Regards,

    Good day Ted, thanks for your reply.
    I did try Parameter.Default value, but what it does is as I mentioned above. If I have Parameter1 as a boolean, with possible values of true and false, if I set Paramter1.Default = true, the parameter window does come up, but it removed the false option from the drop down. So this is not a way to pick one of the various values for Parameter1, but to default it to only one of the values. It's close to what we need, but not fully.
    Also, what are your thoughts about getting the parameter values after the user has made their changes to the CrystalReportViewer parameter window and click OK to pass them to the report. How can we programmatically get those new values?

  • An extra page prints before and after a page with the data, why?

    If I go to www.allrecipes.com, select a recipe and click on the Print button, FF prints an extra blank page before and after the recipe. The recipe is short and easily fits on a single page. I've changed all the print settings so that even the Header & Footer info is set to "Blank".

    I don't understand why blank pages are generated, but I can help you with a quick hack if you like. This will strip off everything but the actual recipe area so that you can streamline the printout.
    After you load the page and select your options:
    * Open Firefox web console using Ctrl+Shift+k
    * Next to the caret (>) paste the following script then press Enter to run it:
    var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]);
    * Close the web console by pressing Ctrl+Shift+k again
    When you preview the page, it should look ready for printing. Any luck?
    Obviously that's not very convenient if you print a lot of recipes from this site, so you could save the script as a bookmarklet. Here's how:
    First, copy this slightly modified script (select, Ctrl+c):
    javascript: var rectbl = document.querySelector(".pageback table.recipeprinttable"); document.body.insertBefore(rectbl, document.body.firstChild); while(document.body.children.length>1) document.body.removeChild(document.body.children[1]); void 0;
    Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, you can display it using either:
    * right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Bookmarks Toolbar
    * tap the Alt key > View menu > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar
    Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar and choose New Bookmark.
    Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
    Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., AllRecipes) and click Add.
    Now, when you want to hack the page, click the button to run the script.

  • How do I add a before and after transition to a standalone clip in the second or other than primary stack?

    New to FCPX on a project this weekend. I have gotten reasonably comfortable with the basic features but one thing that I CANNOT figure out, is how (what used to be) selecting a track in the timeline to activate it to apply a transition.  I need to select a video clip which stands alone in the stack which is positioned above the primary track and add a blend transition before and after the clip. I have set the opacity to blend with the images in the primary track below but the beginning and end of the clip in the second stack do not fall at the transition points in the lower track which should not matter anyway.  I can’t find it in Help or the third party tutorials that I purchased and completed.  Thanks for your help!

    Tom gave you the answer.  As a follow-on you can then use the Cross Dissolve transition on your newly converted connected clip.  This transition will allow it to dissolve smoothly into the video below it.  Note that the Fade to Black transition will take both that clip and the video below it to black which would probably be undesirable. Use Cross Dissolve instead.  Best wishes.

  • How can I control the space before and after text in a table

    Hello
    I have a series of icons with descriptions, these are lined up with icons on the top row and description text in the bottom row. Each icon and description is divided by a stapled line.
    The text is of varying width, therefore the column width must also wary. However I would like to make the space before and after the text equal in all instances (See image).
    If there is anyone that can tell me how to do this with tables or any other tools I would be very thankful.

    The only way I can think of to maintain equla spacing between the text ov vartying lengths and the vertical lines is to put each icon/text pair in it's own frame fitted to content, make each vertical line a separate object, then select them all and distribute the spacing.

  • Can we call a method before and after Export operations in ADF 11g

    Hi,

    Regards,

    Hi,
    in response to a similatr post of yours, I replied
    1. Drop af:exportCollectionActionListener on a command button
    2. set the command button to display = false
    3. In your Java code, call
    ActionEvent ae = new ActionEvent(button);
    ae.queue();
    Everything you put before
    ActionEvent ae = new ActionEvent(button);
    ae.queue();
    will fires as a pre-trigger, everything after as a post trigger

  • Before and After insert or update rowcount

    Hi
    I have several extract objects procs which are calling various build objects procs which in turn are inserting or updating the tables...now when i run these objects sometimes i get no errors and everything seems to be running perfectly but the tables do not get updated ? now what i am trying to achieve here is get some kind of summary where i can see the before and after rowcount..for that i have created a table of every extract object proc and another table with the coressponding tables being updated by tht proc...can anyone pls tell me how should i look into these procs and how do i get the rowcount for a particular table before and after the procedure was run ?
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Hi,
    On which version of RDBMS are you working , because if you're on 10g then just enable auditing or even FGA on the tables were you want to see the changes,
    Then query the DBA-AUDIT (not sure of the name anymore) view.
    If not then create a audit package yourself.
    something like
    create or replace package pck$audit as
    procedure prc$check_tablecount(p_tablename IN VARCHAR2, p_status IN VARCHAR2);
    end;
    create or replace package body pck$audit as
    procedure prc$check_tablecount(p_tablename IN VARCHAR2,p_status IN VARCHAR2) IS
    sqlstr VARCHAR2(100);
    v_count NUMBER;
    begin
    sqlstr := 'SELECT COUNT(*) FROM '||p_tablename;
    EXECUTE IMMEDIATE sqlstr into v_count; --could by 'using v_count' check syntax for this
    INSERT INTO audit_table(table_name,total_count,status,time_stamp)
    VALUES(p_tablename,v_count,p_status,SYSTIMESTAMP);
    COMMIT;
    end;
    end;
    you can elaborate on this creating additional procedure checking differences in total_count on same table at same time.
    Now call this procedure before starting your insert-delete- on your table make sure you put the parameters correct eg p_status => 'begin procedure'
    and call it again after your commit in your procedure.
    Hope this helps you out

  • Report showing costs on cost Centers before and after Cost Distribution

    Hi experts,
    Is there a report that shows the costs on a Sender / receiver  Cost center/Cost elements before and after the distribution cycle is run. What I am looking for a report that shows the costs on  Cost center/Cost Element before the cost allocation cycle is run, the allocated costs in different columns.
    I would appreciate if some one could let me know the tables to fetch the values for the same ( values before allocation, allocated vlues for the month)

  • Printing count of records before and after a command in a PL/SQL

    Hi: I have the following PL/SQL script
    declare
    l_sysdate date := sysdate;
    begin
    INSERT INTO a_mnsnotes SELECT * from mnsnotes where TKT_NBR in (
    select TKT_NBR from mnsinterface where MNS_STATUS=5 and CLOSED_DATE < (((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400));
    delete from mnsnotes Where
    TKT_NBR in (select TKT_NBR from mnsinterface where MNS_STATUS=5 and CLOSED_DATE < (((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400));
    commit;
    end;
    /I want to assign the number of records in the two table (a_mnsnotes and mnsnotes) to two variables so I can print in one line the numberof records for both tables before and after the procedure. How do I set the output of a sql command (select count(*) from mnsnotes) to a variable within the pl/sql?
    Thanks
    Ravi

    Also I'm guessing this:
    (((l_sysdate-30) - to_date('01-JAN-1970','DD-MON-YYYY')) * 86400);
    is because closed_date is stored as number of seconds since 01-JAN-1970, which should be turned into a date ASAP. Never store dates as anything other than DATE datatype (or maybe TIMESTAMP in more recent versions).
    It's not right, as sysdate will have a time component so if this code is run at 8am it will give different results to if it is run at 9pm. And not all months have 30 days.
    Have you considered TRUNC(add_months(sysdate,-1)) instead of l_sysdate-30 ?

  • Xl reporter shows different result before and after Period-End Closing.

    Hi SAP experts,
    We have an issue with XL Reporter. When we ran Period-End closing and ran XL - PL Period & YTD (with the same parameters), XLR shows nil in the Actual YTD column and the monthly figures are out by a big difference (example pre-rollover it was $110K after rollover it shows negative $12M).
    This happens on 2 different clients running 2 different SAP B1 (2007A PL 42 and 8.8 PL 13) on the same XL Reporter which is possibly the default XL report that comes with the installation.
    I don't have any idea why the XLR is running 2 different figures altogether when running the same XLR using the same parameter before and after rolling the year over. The default SAP B1 P&L report stays the same before and after the rollover, I would have expect that the same would happen with the XLR.
    Please advise.
    Regards,
    Didy Arfiono

    Hi Julie,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by excluding a certain transaction for closing entries as this would defeat the whole purpose of PEC which as you stated was to transfer P&L balances to retained earnings account to be carried forward.
    I've check at some guides including one from Orchestra Team (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4tUo774eXg) and so far the process that I've done is exactly what it is.

  • Changing transition changes time of clip before and after???

    When I add or change the transition time, after it renders, the time of the clip before and after the transition automatically changes. I've done it several times and it shortens the time of the clips before and after the transition. Why does it do tht? Its driving me nuts. I keep changing back the time on the clip but when it re-renders it goes back to the time after I changed the time on the transition. Help please thanks lots

    Hi Iluvvartan - that is normal. Transitions use portions of the clips adjacent to them. Cross dissolves for example take a portion from each, and the total length of the project is reduced. The Overlap transition only affects the length of one of the adjacent clips, and the total length of the project remains unchanged.

  • Comparing pictures before and after adjustments

    Dear all,
    I'm about to switch from the Canon software DPP to Camera RAW.
    In DPP it's possible to split the view in order to compare the same RAW picture with different adjustements. This possibility is very valuable to me.
    Is it possible to split the view in Camera RAW ?
    If not, how do you manage to compare the original picture to the one you obtain after having made your adjustments ?
    Thank you for your answers,
    Cédric

    Each adjusment panel in ACR has a Preview box you can check or uncheck to view the adjustments you have made in that panel.
    Alternatively, you can simply toggle the "p" key to see the difference in your image before and after the adjustments. But in either case, this before/after comparison is limired to the adjustments made only in the panel you are currently working in.
    However, if you switch to the Presets panel and toggle the "p" key, this will show you the difference between the image as it was initially opened in ACR and after all adjustments made in all panels.

  • How to make an before and after effects?

    So, I want to make a video that show the audience this is before and after the edit. And i want to make it look like this YouTube Rewind 2014: Behind the Scenes - YouTube
    How to make it?
    Thanks:)

    Really? You take footage of you shooting the video with another camera then you edit it together with shots of the finished project. If you want to show before and after shots of an effect you just put the original footage on top and animate a mask or opacity to reveal the rendered effect below.
    If you can't figure out how to make a before and after then you will have a very difficult time doing any effects using AE because there is absolutely nothing in this before and after but very basic editing and masking.
