Mouse released event for scrollbar

Hello,
I have a java.awt.Scrollbar component on applet.
I need to perform actions when user releases the mouse from the
scrollbar. For example the user presses the mouse on the scrollbars
tracking rectangle and starts to track. Then the values of the
scrollbar changes and finally user releases the mouse left button-
this final event (mouse release) is in my interest. How can i get
mouse release event from scrollbar? The AdjustmentListener does not
suit for me because it fires AdjustmentEvents even then when the user
hasn't released the mouse. I need to perform more actions for every
scrollbar's change; so my applet i slow at the moment, because every
"tracking in scrollbar" creates a lot of events before the mouse is
finally released.
I added a MouseListener for my scrollbar, but mouseReleased event does
not work. Can yo help me?
Thank you, any help would be nice.
Here is some demo code i tried:
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Kerimisriba1 extends Applet implements
AdjustmentListener, MouseListener{
     Scrollbar kerimisriba=new Scrollbar(Scrollbar.VERTICAL, 20, 5, 1,
100); //algv��rtus, nupu suurus, v�him ja suurim v��rtus
     TextField tf=new TextField(10);
     public Kerimisriba1(){
          setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          add(kerimisriba, BorderLayout.WEST);
          add(tf, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
          //kerimisriba.addAdjustmentListener(this);
          kerimisriba.addMouseListener(this);
          System.out.println("AdjustmentEvent.TRACK="+AdjustmentEvent.TRACK);
     public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e){
          //System.out.println(e.getAdjustmentType());
          // tf.setText(kerimisriba.getValue()+"");
     public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent me){
          tf.setText("mouseReleased");
     public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me){}      
     public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent me){}
     public void mouseExited(MouseEvent me){}
     public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me){}
}

I made a screenshot of how the applet works in my computer:
http://charles.pri.ee/scroll.gif
As you see in the java console,
the statement System.out.println("mouseReleased");
does not executes,
in my computer.
I tried this on co-workers comuter with Internet Explorer- there was no mouse release event either.
I hope i'm not very annoying, but i still need help:)
I replaced the constructor with init() method:
import java.applet.Applet;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Kerimisriba1 extends Applet implements AdjustmentListener, MouseListener{
     Scrollbar kerimisriba=new Scrollbar(Scrollbar.VERTICAL, 20, 5, 1, 100); //algv��rtus, nupu suurus, v�him ja suurim v��rtus
     TextField tf=new TextField(10);
     public void init(){
          kerimisriba.addAdjustmentListener(this);
          setLayout(new BorderLayout());
          kerimisriba.addMouseListener(this);
          add(kerimisriba, BorderLayout.WEST);
          add(tf, BorderLayout.SOUTH);          
          System.out.println("AdjustmentEvent.TRACK="+AdjustmentEvent.TRACK);
     public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e){
          System.out.println(e.getAdjustmentType());
          tf.setText(kerimisriba.getValue()+"");
     public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent me){
          tf.setText("mouseReleased");
          System.out.println("mouseReleased");
     public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me){
          System.out.println("mouseClicked");
     public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent me){}
     public void mouseExited(MouseEvent me){}
     public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me){
          System.out.println("mousePressed");

  • How to detect a mouse release event?

    AE SDK provides events for mouse click and mouse drag over effect plugin custom UIs, however there does not seem to be events for mouse release events.
    Are we supposed to keep ourselves an internal track of the mouse status? In that case, do we need to use OS-specific functions? Or is there a more clever way to do it?

    @shachar
    Yes, I set send_drag during the DoClick event callback, like they do in the SDK samples.
    Anyway, for the time being I found that using OS-specific functions (for example GetAsyncKeyState for Windows) does the job.

  • Mouse over event for every word inside a text?

    I want to do a separate mouse over event for every word inside a text.
    or at least get the string below the mouse cursor.
    any hint?
    henry

    There are no events for it but you can use TextField.getCharIndexAtPoint() to determine the character where the mouse is over, and from there you can work out the word where the mouse is over.

  • Detect clicked cluster in mouse down event for clusters within multiple stacked clusters

    With the help of Ben (see http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Determine-cluster-element-clicked-in-mouse-down-event/td-p/1245770)
    I could easily find out what sub-cluster had been clicked on (mouse down event) within the main cluster, by using the Label.Text Property.
    However if you have a cluster within a cluster within a cluster then you probably have to use individual mouse down events for each sub-sub cluster.
    I just wanted to use one "Main Cluster":Mouse Down event and from that determine which of the sub-sub clusters had been clicked on - is this even remotely possible?

    Yes but... you will have to pass through 26 Kudos worth of Nuggets to get there (Well maybe you can skip the last 5 or so).
    This Nugget by Ton teaches us how to use Dynamic Event Registration. (15 Kudos, must read and understand)
    This Nugget by me talks about getting at references inside arbitrary data structures. (11 Kudos, You don't have to read the whole thing, only enough to get at nested objects).
    SO use the stuff I wrote about to gather up the references to the clusters. Build them into an array and then use dynamic event registration and what you learned in that thread you linked in your question.
    So Possible? Yes!
    Easy? YOU tell me.

  • Mouse release event on jtable if its pressed outside jtable

    Is there any way to to catch the mouse release event on JTABLE if the mouse has been pressed on any other window.
    If Its pressed on jtable it can catch mouse release but if if its pressed out side than no mouse event is generated like mouse move and release if I drag mouse over jtable
    I have used mouse motion as well as click listeners but to no avail.
    Thanx in advance

    >
    You could create a generic listener to add to all
    components (or possibly an event queue or something)
    to get all mouse release events and refire the event
    to the component the mouse is really over.One way to do this would be the following:
        AWTEventListener globalMouseListener = new AWTEventListener() {
            public void eventDispatched(AWTEvent event) {
                MouseEvent me = (MouseEvent)event;
                if( me.getID() == MouseEvent.MOUSE_RELEASED ) {
                    System.out.println("Mouse relased at: " + me.getPoint());
                    System.out.println("Source: " + me.getSource());
        Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().addAWTEventListener(
                globalMouseListener, AWTEvent.MOUSE_EVENT_MASK);Now, the source of the MouseReleased event will be the component on which the mouse was pressed, but once you have the coordinates you can probably transform them and find out if the mouse was released over your table using one or more of the SwingUtilities.convertPoint methods.
    On the other hand, maybe there is a far simpler way of doing it than this...

  • Problems with Mouse Down event for a picture control embedded in tab.

    I noticed that when trying to get a Mouse Down event for a picture control that the Mouse Down will not be 'fired' if the picture is embedded in a tab control. It also appears that this problem exists for other controls (I only tested a slider in addition to the picture). It isn't much of an issue for me now as I can just poll the mouse property of the picture control, but the Mouse Down event has information that I may want access to in my next software revision (button pressed, and Alt mod). I could do that by handling the Mouse Down event for the tab itself and checking to see if the the mouse property isn't -1, -1 for the picture, but that seems a little bit too kludgy (sp?) to me and wouldn
    't address the issue with other control types. Any chance of this being addressed by a patch sometime in the next couple of months???

    TabProblem.vi ‏69 KB

    The problem I reported above was in LV 6.1.
    As a work-around, I used the mouse down on the tab control and did the math to decide if the picture was clicked.
    I have been told that this was fixed in LV 7.0. I can not confirm.
    You could call NI and ask about the service request number I cited above.
    I hope this helps,

  • What is the recommended way to handle mouse click events for custom nodes that subclass Panes?

    Hi,
    I have created a custom node that is a StackPane containing a Label on top of a Polygon.
    import javafx.scene.control.Label;
    import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
    import javafx.scene.paint.Color;
    import javafx.scene.shape.Polygon;
    public class CustomHexagon extends StackPane {
        private Polygon hexagon;
        private Label overlayText;
        public CustomHexagon( String text, double... points ) {
            this.hexagon = new Polygon( points );
            this.overlayText = new Label( text );
            overlayText.setStyle( "-fx-font-weight: bold;" );
            hexagon.setStroke( Color.GREEN );
            hexagon.setStrokeWidth( 5.0 );
            hexagon.setFill( Color.WHITE );
            this.getChildren().addAll( hexagon, overlayText );
    // Lays out the node where it should be according to the points provided for the Polygon.
            this.setLayoutX( points[0] - getLayoutBounds().getMinX() );
            this.setLayoutY( points[1] - getLayoutBounds().getMinY() );
    // Show the border of the StackPane.
            this.setStyle( "-fx-border-color: black; -fx-border-width: 1; -fx-border-style: dashed;");
        public String getOverlayText() {
            return overlayText.getText();
    I want to display a tesselation of these custom hexagons. Because a CustomHexagon is a StackPane, not a Polygon, MouseClick events can be picked up when the mouse is clicked outside of the stroke of the hexagon but still within the StackPane (which takes up a rectangle larger than the hexagon). The following program demonstrates this.
    public class Main extends Application {
        @Override
        public void start(Stage primaryStage) {

        public static void main(String[] args) {
            launch(args);
    After running this program, when one clicks within the intersection of two StackPanes (borders shown by dashed lines), the target of the mouse click event will be the StackPane on top as determined by the order in which they were added to their parent.
    This is a problem because there is only a small "T" shaped area within each hexagon that when clicked will target that hexagon with an event, rather than adjacent nodes.
    I would appreciate any reccomendations to solve this problem.
    Thanks,
    James Giller

    Hello, this is an evergreen. Just call setPickOnBounds(false) on the CustomHexagon.

    First change the name from kPlusIconPNGIconRsrcID to kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID
    so "I" will indicate that your icon is inactive
    Create another resource id like:
    #define kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID 15
    #define kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID 15
    Define paths to the icons
    resource PNGA(kPlusIconPNGIconIRsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_I.png" // Inactive icon
    resource PNGR(kPlusIconPNGIconARsrcID) "../res/icons/PLUS_ICO_23_A.png" // Active icon
    Regards

  • Dynamically register "mouse move" event for a VI

    Just as in the example ”Dynamically Register for Events.vi” I want to dynamically register a “Mouse Move” event. I use the “Open VI Reference” to get the reference to the VI and I connect it to the “Register For Events” block just as in the example. When I click the block I get a list of events to choose from, but the “mouse move” event is not one of them. How do I select this event?
    I have got the program running by copying the “Register For Events” block from the example and into my program, but I’m interested to know how this should have been done.
    I use LabView 8.0

    I've had the same problem in LV 8.2.1 and 8.5. I found that NI changed how to access the mouse move... it's now available under "Pane." See my attached example, a modified NI Example.

  • Simulating mouse drag events?

    Hi all,
    I am wrinting unit tests for my swing application. For one test I want to simulate a drag event over a panel. I have tried JFCUnit, but does not seem to work for this, so I am trying to write my own.
    I create 3 mouse events and post them on the system event queue. A mouse press event, a mouse drag event and a mouse release event. MouseEvent's do let you specify a drag start and a drag end point in their constructor. So I have tried using both, but neither works.
    Am I doing anything wrong? The component I'm operating on gets the mouse pressed and mouse released events, but thats all.
    any help much appreciated,
    Justin

    I tried using the Robot class alright, but it does really wierd things. I sometimes doesn't work for simulating dragging events. I have a component that you can drag anywhere on the screen using the mouse, without having to use the titlebar. I am trying to test this dragging, but with the robot class, it looks like it goes into an infinate recursion. The mouseDragged method gets executed thosands of times, and you can see the panel shifting from its origional position to the new position and back again for a few seconds. Could be a bug in Robot class.

  • LV7: how to catch 'Value change' event for cursor position in XY graph?

    I try to catch an event when the cursor position of a graph's cursor
    changes. I created a reference for the cursor array and registered a dynamic
    event 'Value change' for it. The event does not fire when the cursor changes
    (either by dragging it with the mouse or by direct entry of a new value in
    the cursor's X or Y fields. In contrast, when I register e.g. the 'Mouse Up'
    event for the cursor array, the event IS detected.
    -Franz

    So this is the same behaviour as that of a regular control which also does
    not fire a 'Value changed' event when it gets updated by e.g. writing to a
    local.
    At least the cursor's behavior is consistent then...
    But unfortunately also the direct user interaction with the cursor's numeric
    field does not fire the event, which is NOT consistent.
    I was trying to catch cursor changes in my event loop and had used a 'Mouse
    Up' event of the graph indicator to look for cursor changes (whose last
    position I had kept in a local or shift reg). In order not to miss a direct
    user interaction in the numeric field I added the dynamic event 'Value
    change' to the same event case, but with no success, it missed the direct
    entry ...
    according to what you say this seems to b
    e a bug then...

  • Different 'mouse enter' event / 'set busy' vi behaviour in LV8?

    In my program, I used the mouse curcor 'set busy' vi to lock the front panel during a measurement.  However, I did want the 'cancel measurement' button to be available.   I solved that by adding a 'mouse enter' and 'mouse leave' event for that button, that would enable the mouse when it was over the button.  (And disable when it left again)
    Worked fine in LV7, but it seems that in Labview 8, this little trick doesn't work anymore...   
    Apparantly, now the 'mouse enter' event only fires when the cursor isn't set to 'busy'. How do I perform something similar to my old trick in Labview 8? 

    I too had a similar issue when upgrading my application source code from LabVIEW 7.1 to 8.0.  There are a couple of things you could try.
    1) Keep calling the "set cursor busy" vi, but don't disable mouse clicks (a boolean input to the set busy VI). Now add a new event to your event structure to monitor the panel for any "mouse down?" events.  Whenever this event occurs, the user is trying to click somewhere, so wire a TRUE to the "Disabled?" input of the event.  Now to keep your cancel button from being filtered out, add some code to determine if the x,y coordinates of the mouse down event are over your cancel button, if so then don't filter this event.
    2) Keep calling the "set cursor busy" vi, but again don't disable the mouse clicks.  Now whenever you want to disable all user events on your front panel controls, open a reference to each front panel control and set it to disabled (all except the cancel button of course).  This sounds difficult, but it is actually really easy.  There is a VI property you can read to get references to each FP control.
    I personally used the 2nd option in my code to do something similar.  I've attached the VI you can use to disable all you FP controls (with exceptions), and also an example of how I used it.  It's a very small VI.
    Hope this helps.

  • Mouse down event handling of table control in subvi

    Hello Everyone.......
    I have created a vi which has a table control and xy graph... the function of the vi is to plot the data of two particular column of table into xy-graph after user selects the data from table....  In this vi , I have used mouse down event for selecting data set so that the color of selected row get changed for user reference.......  the vi is working fine..... 
    My problem is that this vi is a part of main vi.. and I want to use this vi as a subvi.... So, in my main vi I have a table control which is connected as input to the subvi...  I come to know that I need to register event for triggering a event in a subvi.......
    (1) How to register Mouse down event of table control which is on Main Vi to trigger mouse down event of table in subvi.... Another Important thing is... how to link every property of table control of subvi to the table control of main vi... so it just act as single control adapting every property like when user selects a particular row its color changes in subvi....so it should be reflected even if user selects a row in main vi... I mean table control of main vi and subvi should be a single control...is it possible?
    I hope I am clear......Thanks ..

    See the modified version of the VI. I use the 'Point to Row Column' method to get the cell that was clicked on - your method also worked using 'Selection Start' but I thought I'd show you an alternative.
    I've used a single event structure to update two table controls - the point is that if you have the references to the controls you can update the control from anywhere. You can also 'register for events' to allow you to register for events from a different VI (again, using the references) that doesn't have the control on the front panel.
    Couple of things about your VI:
    You don't need to put a wait node if you have a timeout on your event structure.
    You don't need the for loop for the columns/rows - if you look at the help for the 'Active Cell' property you can use a value of -2 for the row/column to select all cells in the row/column.

  • Mouse down event

    Is there anyway I can keep the control properties as shown in the image attached if I add another event to the same event structure case?
    I currently have an event structure case configured to execute on a mousedown event on a multi column listbox and would like to add a dynamic event to this case also yet keeping hold on the properties show in the image attached..

    Is it not just a case (pun not intended) of right-clicking the event structure and selecting Show Dynamic Event Terminals?
    I understand how to create, register and generate dynamic events but when I add the dynamic event to the event structure it changes (naturally enough) the "CtlRef, Coords,Button" properties to other ones like "time, type, source" etc...
