JTable goes invisible when Frame resized

Ive generated a JTable on base of records from database table is added in a panel and panel is added in a JTabbedPane. when I execute the query first JTable displays... but when I resize the Frame or minimize it and maximize again then JTable goes partially invisible .. i guess it is because of some problem with component paint method.. Ive tried
calling repaint()
validate
doalyout
but none of these works
can any one help me...

Havent tried your example, but this could work:
SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(this);

When i resize my browser my content goes all over the place?

I have made a new page on muse. It is complete and i like the way it looks but when i resize the browser my images and content move around and it doesnt align like i want it to. It needs to lign up with the background image. How do i get the content and images to stay where they are and not move when i resize my browser? My other pages do this just fine. If anyone can help me out that would be great!

In general the site appears to being working normally in a desktop browser. However the content on the page is too wide for many site visitors. (At ~1600 px it's too wide for my 15" 1440 pixel Mac display.)
The "lines2.png" is 1900 px wide and thus makes the content area of your site 1900 px wide. When a site is loaded in a mobile browser, the browser will zoom out so the content area fits in the width of the device.
Given your current design I think you want to set the page with in Site Properties to roughly 1200 pixels (it looks like it's currently 960, but your main header sticks out on both the left and right so you probably want to make your page large enough so the full header fits).
For the lines, perhaps I'm missing something about the precise appearance of the lines, but it seems this could just be a Muse rectangle with only the top and bottom stroke weights set (left and right strokes set to zero in the Stroke panel, click on the word Stroke in the Control Strip). If a Muse rectangle is dragged so its left and right edges are both at the left and right edge of the browser area, then the rectangle will automatically change width in the browser to always be the full with of the browser window (and there won't be another http request to download a .png for the lines, as there is now).

Cell editor removed when table resized

I'm using Java 1.5.0_06 in my application. I have a JFrame which contains a JTable. I use FormLayout (which is like GridBagLayout). When the frame resizes, the table resizes too.
When I enter edit mode in a cell of the table and resize the frame (and the table), the cell exits edit mode. The editor of the cell is removed when the table is resized which causes the value that I had entered in the cell to be lost.
Is there a way to stop cell editing when the frame is resized instead of the cell just exiting edit mode.

}thanks,

I would assume that on the resize of the table the
editing cancelled event is being fired...
You could try overriding the method in the JTable and
when it gets fired, fire the editing stopped method
instead... not sure whether that will work thoughI tried that, but it didn't help. On searching for this problem, I saw a bug report on this very problem.
Here's info on a related bug in java:
Cell editing does not complete when JTable loses focus
Lost newly entered data in the cell when resizing column width

Make button invisible when flv starts again

Hi,
Please, can some one help me and tell me how to have a button
instance become invisible when the play button from the skin.swf
file is clicked? There may be another way to acomplish what I am
trying to do.
I have a Flash 8 file with a FLVPlayback component pointing
to a FLV file. I am using an external skin for the controls. When
the video is finished I have it displaying a button, but if the
person wants to start the video again the button needs to become
invisible again. I am assuming I need to create an actionscript
that says if the video is playing (at all ) the button is
invisible. But how?.. is the big question for me.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
thepopguy

This is possible. You need actionscript to check the status
of the video, if it is playing then the button goes invisible. This
is called an event listener. You need to give the component an
instance name - like vid. Then use this code on the frame:
//listen for movie to play
var vidList:Object = new Object();
vidList.playing = function(){
button1._visible = false;
//any other actions go here
vid.addEventListener ("playing",vidList);
stop;
//listen for movie to stop
var vidList2:Object = new Object();
vidList2.stopped = function(){
button1._visible = true;
//any other actions go here
vid.addEventListener ("stopped",vidList2);
stop;
============
This code will actually listen for the movie to play, and
then it will make the button invisible. It also listens for the
movie to stop, and it make it visible again.

Repeating Frames Resizing Issue

Hello,
I've been using Reports 6 recently having been using Reports 10 up until now, and I've got an issue in the Report I'm currently working on.
When I try to resize any of the repeating frames on the report, they appear to default to a much large size...example...
If I have a repeating frame containing 1 field and I try to reduce the size of the frame so it fits snugly around the field, as soon as I click on one of the draghandles on the frame, it immediately resizes the frame horizontal or vertical (depending on what draghandle is used). So far, this has just been annoying more than anything else and I've generally been able to avoid any problems by simply undoing the change, or redrawing the frame.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a setting off in my version of Reports? Or is this a general problem?
Thanks

Thanks for your feedback.
The reason I have 4 repeating frames is because each frame belong to a different group.
<SOME TEXT> is infact set to vertical expand.
I came up with a solution by using a 5 lines that stretches with FRAME 2 and set no lines
property for FRAME 3. That way FRAME 3 repeats 7 times horizontally, one in each box created by the lines with FRAME 2. Thus when FRAME 2 expands, the expanding lines creates the 7 horizontal boxes.

My cursor goes invisible. How do I fix this?

I have a macbook pro and when I am using Firefox, the cursor often goes invisible in the main body of the screen when I am using iView, Facebook and other programs. I can still mouse to the side dock or top menu and the cursor becomes visible again but for example if I try to close Firefox and the little box comes up asking if I want to close all tabs, I cannot get the cursor to appear in that box to click yes. This happens quite often and it's really frustrating. A friend said it's a problem caused by Flash but I don't know what to do about Flash to fix it. I am using OS X 10.9.3 and Firefox 29.0.1 I am using Safari to post this question as I don't think it happens in Safari.

Start Firefox in [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Safe Mode to Troubleshoot the issue] and to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

Why when I resize an image does it looks less sharp and poor quality?

I've been using Photoshop since CS3 and have never had thus problem before. I used to create websites using WordPress for clients and have created many different logo images without any issues. Now however I'm doing it for muself and I'm having problems when I resize the images for web use.
Here are a few examples. The first is a 1400x1400 image that I'm going to use for a podcast. iTunes requires this size and it looks good to my eye. When you look at the resized image however you'll see that it is not quite as sharp.
1400x1400 http://d.pr/i/SrtJ
300x300 http://d.pr/i/IqtI
Logo at http://safetydad.net
Twitter page http://twitter.com/thesafetydad
I've tried all different things to get it to look good at any size but no mater what when the image gets resized (especially by a CMS or Twitter) it looks like crap. I've tried saving as png, jpeg, flatteing before resizing, resizing the psd, saving as jpeg then resizing, using save for web option but no matter what it doesn't look right.
What am I doing wrong?

When you scale down, you will lose some of the sharpness because it is removing pixels from the image, and Photoshop is trying to figure out how to remove pixels, and reassemble the edges of the image.. As a result, when some of that shading is removed, it begins to blur. Make sure when scaling down an image (image - image size) that you set the resampling to bicubic sharper. This will help to reduce the blur from the pixel removal.
Also, you can go to filter - sharpen - unsharp mask - and work on bringing back some of the sharpness there as well.
For your twitter logo - I would make a separate logo for it, because the text is difficult to read over it. Sorry - just my opinion there.
You may have tried these things already - but if not - hopefully it helps
On the other note - I think you might be hyper-critical of the changes...

[svn:fx-gumbo_beta2] 10484: Fix for autoCenter problem when Move/ Resize effects are used.

Revision: 10484
Author:   [email protected]
Date:     2009-09-21 19:38:14 -0700 (Mon, 21 Sep 2009)
Log Message:
Fix for autoCenter problem when Move/Resize effects are used. autoCenterTransform calculates the center dynamically, using the current width/height of the target. This calculation can be one frame off if a Resize effect is running in parallel with the transform effect. Also, containers do their validation lazily, so they need to be forced to validate in order to have an up-to-date width/height. This fix addresses these problems by reordering the effects in a Parallel hierarchy to put the Resize effects (and composite effects containing Resize) at the front of the set of effects and by calling validateNow() on the target of a transform effect prior to calculating the transform center (if appropriate).

When I resize an image 4-5 times it blurs automatica

Can someone please please HELP !!!
When I paste an image into Fireworks and start to resize it
using the mouse. The image starts to blur. The more and more I
resize it say 4-5 times the image becomes un clear. It seems there
is an automatic blur on the image. Never set anything. It does for
every image. If you try opening a jpg or bmp in fireworks and start
to resize it using mouse (drag window to appropriate size) you will
notice the image becomes blurry. Why is this ? Driving me nuts !!!
Please reply ASAP.
many thanks
Dean

That is exactly what everyone has been saying.
Make it smaller - you resample the image. Now those pixels
are
lost,period. So when you make it bigger there is a lot less
information
therefore the original quality is no longer there.
If you need to, play around with the size of an image until
it fits the
design by changing the size back and forth. Once you are
satisfied with
the design reimport the image one more time and ONCE make it
the right
size. Or use senocular's tip on making the image a symbol
first.
btw, at you will also get image distortion with your method
in Photoshop.

Objects suddenly going invisible

This problem has just popped up in a project I have to turn in later today. It seems that at a certain, hard to pin down point in a project, random objects will go invisible. Mostly it happens when I've added one behavior too many (and not my hundredth behavior either, but my second or third behavior for the entire comp. It's not necessarily that an object goes invisible for it's entire duration either, but sometimes at the end (or beginning) of a behavior applied to a second object. I've rebuilt from scratch. I've deleted the guilty behaviors, but had the effected objects stay invisible. I've converted the behaviors to keyframes. I've even trashed the motion.plist file a few times. I had a similar problem on my old G5 over a year ago and reinstalled and all that to no avail. This wonkiness was the main reason I bought a late '08 MBP the month they came out. What the heck am I doing wrong?

Thanks for checking. The problem is that I don't want all of my behaviors to start at 00:00 - some I want to start at 2:00. I just tried parking every object at :00 and moving my behaviors around in the timeline and that is working right now. Is that a Motion rule that I've overlooked? Does every object in a comp need to start at 0? I'll keep messing with it, but I'm fairly certain it's going to crap out again.
Thanks again.

Gui components don't appear till frame resized

I am experimenting with gridlayout to create a simple gui.
The gui has 3 Jlabels and 3 textfields. The problem is that they do not appear until I drag the corner of the frame to resize it.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

As one reply sort of pointed out, anytime you add anything to any component, that component needs to be redrawn. If you have a parent component redraw, it will redraw all of its sibling components. Therefore, when you resize the main window it often redraws all of the components within it. However, this may not always occur. If you resize a window to the right/down, the repaint SHOULD only occur in the new area exposed at the bottom/right side. If your panel/component does NOT fall within this "clip rectangle" area, it might still not be redrawn. Because of this, you need to invalidate the parent component that you place a component on so that a render event is put on the swing event queue to indicate it needs to be repainted.
There are a few ways this can be done. Component.invalidate(), then repaint(). I tend to prefer the component.updateUI() as I think it invalidates AND repaints the component for you. I have seldom, if ever seen any problems with adding things at runtime so long as I called updateUI() or validate() and repaint().
Keep in mind ALL of these are added as events onto the swing event thread, that does NOT mean they will occur immediately. If another event BEFORE your repaint/validate/etc event is being procssed and is taking up too much time (such as an event listener method), it is possible your component STILL wont be repainted until the event you posted gets consumed by the event thread dispatcher.

Can you customize what folder MAIL goes to when adding attachments?

Can you customize what folder MAIL goes to when adding attachments?
My friend has 2 email addresses for businesses.
He has invoices in folders for both, and wants to set up the Mac like this:
When he writes from one email address and attaches documents - he want the Mac always to go to the corresponding folder for that company of his. Same for the other email address...
Make sense?
Can this be done?
Thanks in advance....

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether your problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.
