JTable CellEditor JComboBox Tab Key

Hi,
I use JDK 1.4.1_01 and got a JComboBox as CellEditor inside a JTable.
Now I tried:
table.setSurrendersFocusOnKeystroke(true);
So the table gives up focus to the editor e.g. after the TAB Key is pressed while navigating through the table.
But there is another Keyboard Event necessary to activate the JComboBox in the Editor (the arrow on the right becomes visible).
Is there a possibility to make the JComboBox visible right after TAB was pressed?
Thanks in advance!

just a guess, didnt try it but... try to set
public boolean shouldSelectCell(EventObject anEvent)
return false;
}in your cell editor
hope it helps

Enter key to act like tab key in JTable

I have programmed a JTable application. I want that if I press 'Enter' key in the JTable cell, the cell at right side may be selected after validating input. Similarly, when I press 'Enter' in the right most cell, the first cell of the next row may be selected after validating input.
In other words, I like 'Enter' key to behave as forward navigational key in JTable cells like 'Tab' key, however, after validating input.
The following is the piece of code which is not working for me. Though, it changes selection border to the next cell on pressing enter, but the focus is not shifted and editing remains in the current cell.
//voucherTable is a JTable object with three columns.
Action moveForward = new AbstractAction() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
int r=voucherTable.getSelectedRow();
int c=voucherTable.getSelectedColumn();
if(c==2){
c=-1;
r+=1;
voucherTable.changeSelection(r,c+1,false,false);
voucherTable.getInputMap().put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke
(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER,0),"moveForward");
voucherTable.getActionMap().put("moveForward",
moveForward);
Kindly advise me to solve the problem.
Thanks.

KeyStroke tab = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0);
KeyStroke enter = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0);
InputMap im = table.getInputMap(JTable.WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT);
im.put(enter, im.get(tab));

JTable tab key navigation with JComboBox Cell Editors in Java 1.3 & 1.4

Hello - this is one for the experts!
I have a JTable which has an editable JComboBox as one of the cell editors for a particular column. Users must be able to navigate through the table using the tab key. After editing a cell a single tab should advance the cell selection to the next column and then the user should just be able to start typing to populate the cell.
However, i've come across some really frustrating differences between the Swing implementation of JDK1.3.1_09 and JDK 1.4.2_04 which means this behaviour is very different between versions!....
1. Editing Cells and then advancing to the next column using tab.
Using standard cell editors (based around JTextFields) in 1.3.1 the user has to press tab twice to traverse to the next column after editing. However, in 1.4.2 a single tab key is enough to move to the next column after editing.
2. Editable JComboBox editors and and advancing to the next column using tab.
Using JDK 1.3.1, having entered some text in the editable combo it takes 2 tabs to transfer the selected cell to the next column. With 1.4.2 a single tab while editing the editable combo ends editing and transfers the selection out of the table completely?!?
With these 2 issues I don't know how to make a single tab key reliably transfer to the next cell, between java versions. Can anyone please help me?!??!
(i've attached test code below which can be run in both 1.3 and 1.4 and demonstrates the above behaviour.)
package com.test;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.table.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
public class TableTest4 extends JFrame {
     private JTable table;
     private DefaultTableModel tableModel;
     public TableTest4() {
          initFrame();
      * Initialises the test frame.
     public void initFrame() {
          // initialise table
          table = new JTable(10, 5);
          tableModel = (DefaultTableModel) table.getModel();
          table.setPreferredScrollableViewportSize(table.getPreferredSize());
          table.setRowHeight(22);
          JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(table);
          getContentPane().add(scrollPane);
          JButton dummyBtn1 = new JButton("Dummy Button 1");
          JButton dummyBtn2 = new JButton("Dummy Button 2");
          // initialise frame
          JPanel btnPanel = new JPanel(new GridLayout(2, 1));
          btnPanel.add(dummyBtn1);
          btnPanel.add(dummyBtn2);
          getContentPane().add(btnPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
          // set renderer of first table column to be an editable combobox
          JComboBox editableCombo = new JComboBox();
          editableCombo.setEditable(true);
          TableColumn firstColumn = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(0);
          firstColumn.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(editableCombo));
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          TableTest4 frame = new TableTest4();
          frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
          frame.pack();
          frame.setVisible(true);

Run the above code in 1.3 and 1.4 and you can see that after editing a cell, the tab key behaviour works differently between versions.
I don't believe by adding a key listener to the cell editors will have the desired effect.
I've read other posts and from what i've read it looks like the processKeyBinding method of the JTable can be overridden to manually handle key events.
Has anyone done this to handle tab key presses so that the same java app running under 1.3 and 1.4 works in the same way ??? I would really appreciate some advice on this as its very frustrating !

Popup of JComboBox shows on mouseclick but disappears on tab-key

Hi everybody, I have a DefaultCellEditor with a ComboBox and I want the popup to be visible on focus, so I overwrite the changeSelection method of the JTable as follows:
public void changeSelection(int rowIndex, int columnIndex, boolean toggle, boolean extend) {
            super.changeSelection(rowIndex, columnIndex, toggle, extend);
            super.editCellAt(rowIndex, columnIndex);
} else if (getEditorComponent() instanceof JComboBox) {
                JComboBox editor = (JComboBox)(getEditorComponent());
                editor.requestFocusInWindow();
                editor.showPopup();
            }This behaves like I want it to on mouseclicks. On Tab focus the popup is shown as long as I hold the tab key but disappears again after. What does the release of the Tab key does what the mouse button doesn't and can I change it?
thanks for aswers

JTable TAB key listener

Hi all:
I'm trying to write a filterable jtable. User can input the filter rule in the table header and the table displays the filtered data at the same time when the user inputs letters. The table filter works fine. But when I try to add "TAB" key listener, I find that I can't track the "TAB" key. I use a customerized cell renderer to display the filterable table header, a customerized cell editor to edit the filterable table header. The cell editor is created like this:
JTextField textField = new JTextField("");
DefaultCellEditor cellEditor = new DefaultCellEditor(textField);
And I add a KeyListener to the textField. The KeyListener can track other keys like "Shift", "Alt", "Ctrl", but it can't track "TAB". It's weird. I also add the KeyListener to JTableHeader, JTable, but when I edit something in the JTextField, I still can't catch the "TAB" key. Have any ideas? Thank you for your time.

by default the Tab is used (and consumed) by
focusManager to move focus between components. If you
want to get it in a component you have to signal the
manager to keep it's hands off. How to do so depends
on the jdk version. Focus handling changed
considerably between 1.3 and 1.4: Prior to 1.4 you
have to subclass the component in question to return
true on isManagingFocus(), since 1.4 you have to set
the comp's focusTraversalKeys to make the manager take
those instead of the default keys.
Greetings
JeanetteThanks Jeanette, it works. I use the Component.setFocusTraversalKeysEnabled(false) to disable all traversal keys of JTextField and add a KeyEventDispatcher to the KeyboardFocusManager. It finally works. Users can use "TAB" keyStroke and "Shift-TAB" keyStroke to traverse in the filterable table header now. Thank you for your great help and the $$ are yours.

Tab key selects cell for edit in JTable

Hello,
I've seen extensive posts on this forum for this problem, but no solution yet.
I have a Jtable, with custom cellRenders and cellEditors. Some columns are editable, some are not.
What I want to do, is when someone tabs to an editable cell, that cell immediately goes into edit mode. This means, it acts as if someone double clicked on it, or tabbed then clicked on it. Basically, I want it to ACTUALLY go into edit mode.
Please do not respond by telling me how to make it look editable (highlighting, etc) and do not respond with mouseEvent solutions. Please do not respond by telling me to do table.editCellAt(row,col) because that does not kick in my custom editor, it uses the defaultCellEditor.
So basic question:
How to kick in editing when someone tabs to an editable cell?
If you need code examples, please request and I will post.

nmstaat,
In JTable:
Look into the processKeyBinding method. It takes a keyevent and matchs it with an InputMap, and the InputMap invokes an Action in the corresponding ActionMap.
You will have to call yourJTable.getActionMap(), then alter the action that corresponds to the 'tab' key.
For Further information, check the JTable API, its all there.
Good Luck,
Alex

Enter key as Tab Key in a JTable

How can I have the Enter Key act as a Tab Key in a JTable?

thnx...but I already solved my problem. In case someone has the same problem:
final InputMap im = table.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT);
final KeyStroke key = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0, false);
im.put(key, "selectNextColumnCell");

Handling keyTyped events in JTable for TAB key

In my app, I have a JTable. Some columns are non-editable.
I have attached a keyListener to the table and have overridden keyTyped() and keyReleased() methods.
In keyReleased(), I do something depending on the key code. For example: if its the VK_DELETE, I delete the row. If its some other user configured key, then I show a popup dialog where the user can enter some data, etc...
In keyTyped(), I first check if the column is one of the specific columns. Then I get the keyChar. After this, I show a dialog and pre-populate a JTextField on this dialog with that keyChar.
My issue is that 'TAB' key events arrive in keyTyped() and not in keyReleased(). As a result, the dialog is shown and the tab takes place inside the JTextfield which is incorrect.
I would like to ignore TAB keyTyped events. When I look up the keyCode in keyTyped() method, it is 0. So there is no way for me to tell what key was typed.
How can I ignore TAB events in my keyTyped() method?
thx

I now do the following to determine if TAB key has been typed
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
char c = e.getKeyChar();
if (c == KeyEvent.VK_TAB) {
Is this correct ?

Tab Key Navigation in JTable

Hello All,
Can anyone please help me with Tab key navigation in a JTable.I
read all the messages in this group but couldn't implement one.It
would be a great help if anyone can provide me a working example of how
to control the tab key in the JTable. I have a JTable with some of the
columns not editable, I want the focus to be in the first cell and
whenever the TAB key is pressed, the focus should go to next editable
cell and select the data in it.For example: if you take a simple table of 4 columns with column 2 not editable, The focus should begin with the first cell(1st column,1st row) and goto (3rd column,1st row) whenever TAB is pressed.It should work in reverse when SHIFT-TAB is pressed.
I'm new to Java Swing.I would greatly appreciate if anyone can provide me a working example.
Thanks in advance,
siddu.

OK Here is what I have ...
public class MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable extends JTable {
/** Creates a new instance of MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable */
public MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable( int the_column) {
this.myColumn = the_column;
this.rowEditors = new ArrayList();
setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, Collections.EMPTY_SET);
setFocusTraversalKeys(KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, Collections.EMPTY_SET);
protected boolean processKeyBinding(KeyStroke ks, KeyEvent e,int condition, boolean pressed) {
boolean isSelected = false;
if (ks == KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB,0)) {
int selRow = getSelectedRow();
int rowCount = getRowCount();
int selCol = getSelectedColumn();
if (selCol == 1) { isSelected= getCellEditor(selRow,selCol).stopCellEditing();}
int targetRow = (selRow + 1) % rowCount;
this.editCellAt(targetRow, 1);
this.getComponentAt(targetRow, 1).requestFocus();
return super.processKeyBinding(ks,e,condition,pressed);
I think I know why the requestFocus() is not working. OK, I have a MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable (sub of JTale), JTextPane, JButton and JLabel. The textpane, label and button have individual editors and renderers. Each time I want to display a new Row, I re-render these components and add it to the table.
Now with the above code, it still navigates to the next component in the row/ first column in next row depending on the current column. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Praveen.

JTable row selection with tab key

Helo.
I'm having a problem selecting rows in a JTable. The JTable is with single row selection and without column and cell selection. When I press <tab> the selection changes to another cell, and I wanna it to change to the other row of the table, can anyone help me? I think this is a easy one and I haven�t found a way to do it. I�m using JBuilder for the development.

The default Action for the Tab KeyStroke is to move focus to the next cell.
The default Action for the Enter KeyStroke is to move focus to the next line.
So this functionality is already available in JTable by default.
If you want to Tab Key to work the same way as the Enter Key then you need to map the Tab Key to use the Action assigned to the Enter Key.
This [url http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=505866]posting shows how you can reassign an Action for a given KeyStroke.
For more information on this topic read this section from the Swing tutorial on [url http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/misc/keybinding.html]How to Use Key Bindings.

The correct approach to intercept TAB key

Dear Experts,
I have developed a GUI out of javax.swing. The GUI consists of JFrame, several JPanels and javax components, such as JTextField, JLabel, JComboBox, JTable and many more.
Now, I want to change the behavior when user presses TAB key. By default TAB key moves focus from a component to another component. How can I disable this?
I come to two alternatives that I am not sure which one is the correct approach. Could you please advise me?
Alternative 1.
Use key binding on GlassPane.
Alternative 2.
Use event-handling on GlassPane.
If those alternatives are not the best one, could you please provide another alternative?
I have tried the following, but they didn't work...
Action doNothing = new AbstractAction() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("Tab-key is pressed.");
cmbPCode.getInputMap().put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0), "doNothing");
cmbPCode.getActionMap().put("doNothing", doNothing);or
getRootPane().getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0), "doNothing");
getRootPane().getActionMap().put("doNothing", doNothing);where cmbPCode is a JComboBox that receives focus when the GUI shows up.
Thanks for your help,
Patrick

Thank you for the advice. I am developing an application where the user is not computer literated, so that I have to limit functional key as many as possible and only allow several keys to be active. For example, I don't want TAB key to change the focus, instead I want TAB key to do nothing.
I have tried keybinding, because I think this is the most relevant, but somehow I failed to recognize which component should be bound with keybinding. I have tried to change the input map of the component that receives the focus when the GUI is displayed (cmbPCode) as can be seen on my first post. I also tried to change the input map of the root pane. Both are not successful.
Now, I wonder whether
1. it does not work because the key is not consume()?
2. Or should I use key listener, which I would only use if keybinding were unable to serve my goal?
3. Or should I learn how to intercept key on the glass pane?
4. Is keybinding able to nullify default action, such as changing focus by TAB key? I am asking this, because I'm going to nullify other important key such as ENTER key.
Thank you for any guidance,
Patrick

Making the Tab key not work in the JTextArea

In my view I have a JTextArea along with a bunch of JTextFields and JComboBoxes. The user is usually going to tab out of a field in order to go to the next field. What's happening is when the user tries to tab out of the JTextArea, the cursor just moves by a tab length within the JTextArea instead of going to the next field. And if the JextArea has some text in it and if the user tabs into the JTextArea, the whole text gets selected and on hitting the next tab, it gets wiped out.
I am trying to make the JTextArea not respond to the tab by writing the following code. Keymap keyMap = JTextComponent.getKeymap(JTextComponent.DEFAULT_KEYMAP);
KeyStroke tabKey = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0, false);
keyMap.removeKeyStrokeBinding(tabKey);
jTextArea1.setKeymap(keyMap);But it's still not working. Can anybody tell what's wrong with that code. Or is there any other way to do it? Any help/hints appreciated.
Thanks.

If you're using jdk1.4, those other solutions won't
work because the focus subsystem has changed radically
(see
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/awt/doc-file
/FocusSpec.html). The upshot is that you have to
specifically register the keystrokes that you want to
use for focus traversal. In your case, you have to
re-register the Tab and Shift-Tab keys, and
they don't seem to have provided a simple way to do
that. Here's what I come up with:Set forwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB));
forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys(
KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
forwardTraversalKeys);
Set backwardTraversalKeys = new TreeSet();
backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK));
backwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(
KeyEvent.VK_TAB, InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK |
K | InputEvent.CTRL_MASK));
textArea.setFocusTraversalKeys(
KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,
backwardTraversalKeys);Or, you can just press CTRL+TAB instead of TAB when
you get to the JTextArea :).=====================================
i used the above thing but i am getting exceptions classcast exception n method not found (forwardTraversalKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB));)keystroke.get keyStroke(int)???? where i am going wrong as it will be quite helpful for me am using jdk1.4.1_02

Customize "Tab" key for JTextArea to focus next component.

Hi,
I am trying to change the "TAB" key behaviour for JTextArea, by using CustomAction configured via InputMap() and ActionMap(). When the user presses the Tab key, the focus should go the next component instead of tabbing in the same JTextArea component. Here is the code for the CustomAction().
    public static class CustomTabAction extends AbstractAction {
        private JComponent comp;
        public CustomTabAction (JComponent comp) {
            this.comp = comp;
            this.comp.getInputMap().put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("TAB"), "TABPressed");
            this.comp.getActionMap().put("TABPressed", this);
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
            Object source = evt.getSource();
            if (source instanceof Component) {
                FocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager().
                        focusNextComponent((Component) source);
    }This works for most of the cases in my applicaiton. The problem is that it doesn't work with JTable which has a custom cell editor (JTextArea). In JTextArea field of JTable, if the Tab is pressed, nothing happens and the cursor remains in the custom JTextArea exactly at the same place, without even tabbing spaces. Here is the CustomCellEditor code.
    public class DescColCellEditor extends AbstractCellEditor implements TableCellEditor {
//prepare the component.
        JComponent comp = new JTextArea();
        public Component getTableCellEditorComponent(JTable table, Object value,
                boolean isSelected, int rowIndex, int vColIndex) {
            // Configure Tab key to focus to next component
            CustomActions.setCustomAction("CustomTabAction", comp);
            // Configure the component with the specified value
            ((JTextArea)comp).setText((String)value);
            // Return the configured component
            return comp;
        // This method is called when editing is completed.
        // It must return the new value to be stored in the cell.
        public Object getCellEditorValue() {
            return ((JTextArea)comp).getText();

textArea.getInputMap().remove(....);but that won't work because the binding is actually defined in the parent InputMap. So I think you need to use code like:
textArea.getInputMap().getParent().remove(...);But I'm not sure about this as I've never tried it.I tried removing the VK_TAB key from both the input map and parent input map as shown below. But I still have to press "TAB" twice in order to get out of the JTextArea column in JTable.
            comp.getInputMap().getParent().remove(
                        KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB,0));
            comp.getInputMap().remove(
                        KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB,0));after coding this, I am using the setFocusTraversalKeys for adding only "TAB" key as ForwardTraversalKey as given below.
        Set newForwardKeys = new HashSet();
        newForwardKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, 0));
        comp.setFocusTraversalKeys(
                    KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,newForwardKeys);
        Set newBackwardKeys = new HashSet();
        newBackwardKeys.add(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_TAB, KeyEvent.SHIFT_DOWN_MASK));
        comp.setFocusTraversalKeys(
                    KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS,newBackwardKeys);The only problem that remains now is that I have to press the "TAB" twice in order to get out of the JTextArea column

Regarding Tab key Navigation in a page

Hi,
I have a requirement regarding the tab key navigation on a page.
Suppose the focus is on the last field of a page, on clicking the tab key i should go to the first field in the page not the url. i tried using tab index, but the problem is that after coming back to the first field from the last field, on clicking on tab again it does not go on as usual, it suddenly jumps to the url from there.

OK Here is what I have ...
public class MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable extends JTable {

int rowCount = getRowCount();
int selCol = getSelectedColumn();

int targetRow = (selRow + 1) % rowCount;
this.editCellAt(targetRow, 1);
this.getComponentAt(targetRow, 1).requestFocus();
return super.processKeyBinding(ks,e,condition,pressed);
I think I know why the requestFocus() is not working. OK, I have a MultipleEditorsPerColumnJTable (sub of JTale), JTextPane, JButton and JLabel. The textpane, label and button have individual editors and renderers. Each time I want to display a new Row, I re-render these components and add it to the table.
Now with the above code, it still navigates to the next component in the row/ first column in next row depending on the current column. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,
Praveen.

Problem with Tab key
