JTable with Labeles cells

Is it possible to create Table where each cell
will have permanent label (its number) together with an editable text?

Yes we can have it like that
for that u need to create a panel with one label and textbox in it
and renderer that column with this panel

How can we have a JTable with rounded cells

I want to create a JTable with circular or oval shaped Cells, can anybody please help me as to how to go about it?
Thanks in advance

If you share an Apple ID for purchases then you share all purchases.
You can hide purchases that are not synced locally (with the cloud icon next to them) to the device here:
Settings > Music > tuen Show All Music off
I suggest you create a playlist for each person in iTunes on your computer with only their music on it. Then sync just that playlist to each persons device.

Problem sorting JTable with custom cell editor

Greetings,
I have created a JTable with a JComboBox as the cell editor for the first column. However, I couldn't simply set the default cell editor for the column to be a JComboBox, since the values within the list were different for each row. So instead, I implemented a custom cell editor that is basically just a hashtable of cell editors that allows you to have a different editor for each row in the table (based on the ideas in the EachRowEditor I've seen in some FAQs - see the code below). I also used a custom table model that is essentially like the JDBCAdapter in the Java examples that populates the table with a query to a database.
The problem comes when I try to sort the table using the TableSorter and TableMap classes recommended in the Java Tutorials on JTables. All of the static (uneditable) columns in the JTable sort fine, but the custom cell editor column doesn't sort at all. I think that the problem is that the hashtable storing the cell editors never gets re-ordered, but I can't see a simple way to do that (how to know the old row index verses the new row index after a sort). I think that I could implement this manually, if I knew the old/new indexes...
Here's the code I use to create the JTable:
// Create the Table Model
modelCRM = new ContactTableModel();
// Create the Table Sorter
sorterCRM = new TableSorter(modelCRM);
// Create the table
tblCRM = new JTable(sorterCRM);
// Add the event listener for the sorter
sorterCRM.addMouseListenerToHeaderInTable(tblCRM);
Then, I populate the column for the custom cell editor like this:
// Add the combo box for editing company
TableColumn matchColumn = getTable().getColumn("Match");
RowCellEditor rowEditor = new RowCellEditor();
// loop through and build the combobox for each row
for (int i = 0; i < getTable().getRowCount(); i++) {
JComboBox cb = new JComboBox();
cb.addItem("New");
//... code to populate the combo box (removed for clarity)
rowEditor.add(i,new DefaultCellEditor(cb, i))); //TF
} // end for
matchColumn.setCellEditor(rowEditor);
Any ideas how to do this, or is there a better way to either sort the JTable or use a combobox with different values for each row? Please let me know if more code would help make this clearer...
Thanks,
Ted

Well, I found a solution in another post
(see http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jsp?forum=57&thread=175984&message=953833#955064 for more details).
Basically, I use the table sorter to translate the row index for the hashtable of my custom cell editors. I did this by adding this method to the sorter:
// This method is used to get the correct row for the custom cell
// editor (after the table has been sorted)
public int translateRow(int sortedRowIndex)
checkModel();
return indexes[sortedRowIndex];
} // end translateRow()
Then, when I create the custom cell editor, I pass in a reference to the sorter so that when the getTableCellEditorComponent() method is called I can translate the row to the newly sorted row before returning the editor from the hashtable.

Size of combobox in JTable with custom cell editor

Hi All -
I have a JTable that displays a combobox in certain cells. I have a custom table model, renderer, and editor. All of that works fine. I render the combobox with the renderer, and then return the combobox as an editor in the editor so that it can drop down and actually be of use. My problem is - I set the size of the combobox with a setBounds call in the renderer, I add it to a panel, and return the panel - because I dont want the combobox to take up the entire space of the cell. This approach fails in the editor. The setBounds and setSize calls have no effect. As soon as you click the combobox, the editor takes over and all of a sudden the combobox resizes to the entire area of the cell. I assume this is because in the editor you arent actually placing anything - your simply returning the "editing form" of the component.
So - anybody know of a way to work around this? Worst case, I could just allow the combobox to use the entire area of the cell - but it makes it uglier so I figured I would run it by the forums.
Eric

Rather than just redirect you to my previous answer from ages ago, I'll just give it again. :-)
You can actually do this, but you have to get tricky. By default, the dropdown's width will be the same width as the cell... but it doesn't have to be that way. Essentially what you have to do is override the UI (MetalComboBoxUI) for the combo component. In your new customized UI component subclass (that you set the combo to use), modify the the createPopup() method of this UI class, and add your own logic to set the size of the popup before you return it.
Ideally the size would be based on the computed max width of a rendered item shown in the combo, but really you could set it to whatever just to see how it works.

JTable with JButton Cell renderer

How can I get buttons (JButtons) to "depress" properly in a JTable when using them as the cell renderer for a specific column in a JTable? Currently when pressing any button in the column, there is no change in the visible state of the button, i.e. it doesn't change color to create impression of depression.

Is the [problem not the fact that the JTable cell renderers merely rubberstamp each cell with the appropriate display, i.e. the actual component in the cell is not an actual button (just looks like one)? If this is the case, then the same problem will persis with a JToggleButton as well won't it?

JTable with JComboBox cells

Hi all,
When I make the JComboBox(es) become the cell of the JTable, the list of JComboBox is not expanded as the way a JComboBox behaves when you click on the arrow to see the whole list. I think the JComboBox is not receiving the mouse click event. Another way to say, something keeps the JComboBox from receiving the mouse click.
Has anybody experienced this scenario?
Frank.

Is the table cell editable? If it isn't, that is your problem. Enable cell editing for that cell(s).

JTable with custom cell for folding and unfolding rows

Hi,
I am trying to implement a JTable, whereas one of the columns is a custom component, which has a small + in the right upper corner.
When you push this + the JTable should unfold other rows, giving more detail on the current row.
So something like this :
|--------------------------------|
| <some-string> + |
|--------------------------------|Drawing this custom component for the column is no problem but I am having trouble implementing the MouseMotionListener events over this.
If I add a mouseMotionListener to the JTable, I am able to forward these events to my custom class which draws this custom component.
But off course the X and Y coordinates of this MouseEvent are not mapped into the grid of my custom component, which poses my question.
How can I attach to each cell of this custom column of my JTable, a listener as to implement some mouseover and mouseclick stuff ?
In case this post is not all that clear, I will try to add a demo showing my problem.
Kind regards,
Wim.

You're reinventing a wheel that's been done a few times. One example is JTreeTable (http://community.java.net/javadesktop/) but there are others.

JTable with more cell editors??

Hi,
I have a JTbale in which I have two special columns- one with buttons and the other similar to the the color changer from the swing tutorial.
My question is should I have now two renders and two editors in this situation?

Need help serializing an AbstractTableModel for a JTable with cell editing.

Fun times are ahead. Here we go!
I have a JTable that contains data I'd like to serialize out to a file to be restored and viewed later.
So I tried saving the AbstractTableModel subclass out to a file. Whenever I do this, I get the following error message:
java.io.NotSerializableException: javax.swing.JTable$CellEditorRemover
Now I know for fact that serializing an AbstractTableModel that was installed in a JTable without cell editing works just fine (my old code did exactly that). As a result, I think that the code that handles events in the AbstractTableModel contains references back out to the JTable, which causes the JTable to be saved no matter what (even though I'm just interested in saving the TableModel only). It causes a bigger file than normal, but file size is not an issue. The only issue I have is that CellEditorRemover (an undocumented inner class of JTable), which is automatically installed for JTables with editable cells, is not serializable.
This leads to the following questions:
1. Is there a way to avoid serialization/deserialization of the CellEditorRemover inner class of JTable?
2. Is there a way to save an AbstractTableModel without saving all of the event listeners associated with it?
I think an answer to either of these questions would go a long way towards solving my problem. Otherwise, I'll resign myself to weeping silently in the corner of my office.
Thanks!

I would suggest that if you can you only save the
data... but i would do this by using the
externalizable interface.
What you will need to do is have the
writeExternal(ObjectOutputStream out) and
readExternal(ObjectOutputStream out) methods in your
class. These will be responsiable for saving the
data.
Here's an example of what you can do in these
methods... this is just a little tidbit from a program
i've written.public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput out) throws
IOException {
          out.writeInt(size);
          out.writeObject(drawName);
          out.writeInt(playersLength);
for(int i = 0; i < playersLength; i++)
) out.writeObject(players);
          out.writeInt(seedsLength);
for(int i = 0; i < seedsLength; i++)
) out.writeObject(seeds[i]);
          out.writeInt(drawLength);
for(int i = 0; i < drawLength; i++)
) out.writeObject(draw[i]);
public void readExternal(ObjectInput in) throws
IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
          size = in.readInt();
          drawName = (String)in.readObject();
          playersLength = in.readInt();
for(int i = 0; i < playersLength; i++) players[i] =
= (String)in.readObject();
          seedsLength = in.readInt();
for(int i = 0; i < seedsLength; i++) seeds[i] =
= (String)in.readObject();
          drawLength = in.readInt();
for(int i = 0; i < drawLength; i++) draw[i] =
= (String)in.readObject();
You can now use your class as you would a Serializable
class, but it will only save the data
Hope this helped

I forgot to add some critical information in my original post. My apologies. :(
I've thought about using Externalizable, but am hesitant to use it because the application would no longer be able to read in files using the old save format (ie, AbstractTableModels for JTables without CellEditorRemovers ). I want to preserve the ability to read the old saved AbstractTableModel formats if possible.
Do you know of a way to revert to the default deserialization mechanism from readExternal? This way, during deserialization, I could do a quick test on the object being read and have the ability to default to the regular deserialization mechanism if the object is of the old type or continue with the new Externalizable stuff if the object is one of the new type. Maintaining file compatibility is key.

Row with one cell in JTable

I have a JTable with multiple cells per row. However, in-between some rows, I would like to have a header row which doesn't change as I scroll horizontally. Is that possible?
Another question about JTables: Is it possible to have fixed cells on the right as well as on the left, with some cells in-between which you can scroll?

JTable with JPanel form as cell renderer/editor

I have a JTable that uses a custom cell editor/renderer. The cell editor/renderer is a JPanel form with labels and text panes. As the user edits the information, I adjust the table row height (setRowHeight) and the JPanel layout manager updates the layout on the cell editor. This all seems to work fine. However, when the user exists the cell and the cell renderer is shown, it has the correct new row height but has not been correctly layed-out for the new row height. How do I force my cell renderer to be re-layout after the editor closes?

That does not seem to work. I have done the following:
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int r, int c)
this.table = (EditorTable) table;
row = r;
column = c;
if (isSelected)
setBackground (Preferences.selectedRowBgColor);
else
setBackground (formBg);
// constructs the panel components
setCellValue (value);
revalidate();
return (this);

How do I create a JTable with some empty cells in it?

I have a three column JTable. The first column is a String showing description. The second column contains numbers (double) and the third column also contains numbers. In some cases not all cells in a row should contain data. So for instance, I could have row one showing only description (a String in the first column), and then row two showing description (a String in the first column) and a number (a double in the second column) in columns one and two respectively. My problem is that, the data gets copied from the cells with data to the cells which are supposed to be empty. So, how do I create a JTable with some empty cells in it.

I have tried empty strings for those values, but it did not work. My table puts objects in an arraylist called reconciliation. The arraylist takes different objects with the same super class. The code below explains. Are you suggesting I pass null to my constructor?
JTable table = new JTable(new ReconTableModel());The method below is from the table model
protected List<Reconciliation> reconciliation = new ArrayList<Reconciliation>();
protected void fillModel(){
      reconciliation.add(new CashBook("Cash Book Report"," "," "));
      reconciliation.add(new CheckingBankAccount("Checking Bank Account"," "," "));
      reconciliation.add(new BankBalance("Bank Balance As Per Bank Statement",500," "));
      reconciliation.add(new PaymentVouchers("Payment Voucher Receipt",300," "));
      reconciliation.add(new DepositVoucher("Deposit Voucher Receipt",1000," "));
      reconciliation.add(new ReconciledBalance("Reconcilied Bank Balance",1200," "));
      reconciliation.add(new BalanceAt("Bank Balance At",800," "));
      reconciliation.add(new Difference("Difference",400," "));
      Collections.sort( reconciliation, new Comparator<Reconciliation>(){
      public int compare( Reconciliation a, Reconciliation b) {
        return a.getTransactionName().compareTo( b.getTransactionName());
}

JTable with custom column model and table model not showing table header

          table=new JTable(tableModel, colModel);
          frame.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(table));
          frame.setSize(200,200);

When the TableColumn is created, the default headerValue is null
So, the header ends up rendered as an empty label (probably of size 0 if the JTable computes its header size based on the renderer's preferred size).nitpicking (can't resist - the alternative is a cleanup round in some not so nice code I produced recently <g>):
- it's not the JTable's business to compute its headers size (and it doesn't, the header's the culprit.) *> - the header should never come up with a zero (or near-to) height: even if there is no title shown, it's still needed as grab to resize/move the columns. So I would consider this sizing behaviour a bug.*
- furthermore, the "really zero" height is a longstanding issue with MetalBorder.TableHeaderBorder (other LAFs size with the top/bottom of their default header cell border) which extends AbstractBorder incorrectly. That's easy to do because AbstractBorder itself is badly implemented

JTable with JCheckbox problems

Ok so I have a couple of questions. I have a JTable with a column represented as a checkbox.
1. If I put the checkbox column as the first in the table, the rest of the cells are blank/null. Any idea what the reason is?
2. What is the best workaround to having draggable columns, meaning icons/checkboxes don't render if you move the columns around?
3. Does anyone have some links to good resources on JTables and things like custom components in them. I have googled but don't get many good links so would appreciate any help
Code snippet as follows:
public class ClobberTableCellRenderer implements TableCellRenderer
private JPanel renderPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
private JLabel renderLbl = new JLabel("");
private JCheckBox checked = new JCheckBox();
private Icon successIcon;
private Icon errorIcon;
public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
Object value,
boolean isSelected,
boolean hasFocus,
int row,
int column)
String columnName = table.getModel().getColumnName(column);
if (value == null)
return null;
else if ("Status".equals(columnName) && "ok".equals(value))
renderLbl.setIcon(successIcon);
renderLbl.setText("");
renderPanel.remove(checked);
else if ("Status".equals(columnName) && "error".equals(value))
renderLbl.setIcon(errorIcon);
renderLbl.setText("");
renderPanel.remove(checked);
else if ("Active".equals(columnName))
renderLbl.setText("");
renderPanel.add(checked);
renderPanel.setBackground(Color.white);
else
renderLbl.setHorizontalAlignment(value instanceof Date || value instanceof Number ? JLabel.RIGHT : JLabel.LEFT);
renderLbl.setIcon(null);
renderLbl.setText(value instanceof Date ? df.format((Date)value) : value.toString());
renderLbl.setToolTipText(null);
renderPanel.setToolTipText(null);
renderPanel.remove(checked);
if (isSelected)
renderPanel.setBackground((Color)UIManager.getDefaults().get("Table.selectionBackground"));
else
renderPanel.setBackground((Color)UIManager.getDefaults().get("Table.background"));
return renderPanel;
}

Hi :) I have also worked on JTables and JCheckBoxes before. This article
