Multiple panels on one panel

i have three panels-mainPanel, panel1, panel2. my mainPanel has a borderlayout. i am trying to set both panels1 and 2 onto the center of the mainpanel. i only want to show one panel at a time until a button is clicked. i have used the setVisible command but i still get a panel with nothing on. is there a way around this. the following is my code. is there a way so i can have both panels in the center with all the components for each panels.
public class IssueBook extends JFrame{
private JFrame IssueBook;
JFrame mainFrame = this;
private JPanel mainPanel, panel1, panel2;
public IssueBook() {
IssueBook = new JFrame("Issue Or Return Book");
mainPanel = new JPanel();
panel1 = new JPanel();
panel2 = new JPanel();
mainPanel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
IssueBookPanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
ReturnBookPanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
mainPanel.add(IssueBookPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
mainPanel.add(ReturnBookPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
panel1.setVisible(true);
panel2.setVisible(false);
IssueBook.show( );
}

Layout managers and panels are one of those things that has to be studied, the good new is that for the most part it isn't difficult;-import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.io.*;
public class TwoPanels extends JFrame implements ActionListener {
   JButton start = new JButton("Start");
   JButton submit1 = new JButton("<html><center><b>Add B<br>Remove A</center></html>");
   JButton submit2 = new JButton("<html><center><b>Add A<br>Remove B</center></html>");
   JPanel panel1, panel2, panel3, panel4;
   Container cont;
public TwoPanels(){
   cont = getContentPane();
   cont.setLayout(new BorderLayout() );
   panel1 = new JPanel();
   panel1.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
   JLabel label1 = new JLabel("My application");
   panel1.add(label1);
   start.addActionListener(this);
   panel1.add(start);
   panel2 = new JPanel();
   panel2.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
   JLabel label = new JLabel("My starting panel");
   panel2.add(label);
   panel3 = new JPanel();
   panel3.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
   panel3.setBackground(Color.magenta);

   panel4 = new JPanel();
   panel4.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
   panel4.setBackground(Color.blue);
   JLabel label3 = new JLabel("This is my placid panel, Panel B");
   label3.setForeground(Color.cyan);

Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?

I've written a program in labview 7.1 to monitor/control a labview application running in the test cell through Remote Panel. I and my coworker can remotely monitor and/or control this labview application individually. But if my coworker has the remote panel displayed on his PC and I try to get the remote panel on my PC, I get a labview error (63) as below:
"LabVIEW: Serial port receive buffer overflow.
LabVIEW: The network connection was refused by the server."
My question is: Can multiple PCs access one remote panel at the same time?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry I wasn't clear. The remote panel license is separate from the number of LabVIEW development licenses. Pricing information on remote panel licenses can be found here.

Getting multiple panels in one extension

Hi,
I'm having trouble setting up multiple panels in my extension. I've seen similar posts on here but what fixed it for them doesn't seem to solve it for me!
My first panel appears fine, but clicking the menu option for the second one does nothing.
I have a WidgetBoss for each:

Creating multiple panels in one frame

Greetings,
As a newbie, I am sure you all have been in my place at one time or another so I will skip right to the meat of what I am trying to do.
I originally started out with GridBagLayout() and placing all my code in the main function declaration but that has it's limits.
I am trying to find a way to mount / add multiple panes onto one JPanel using functions in order to break up the code. I don't get an error when I compile, but the screen appears blank which tells me that I am adding one JPanel onto another in the wrong manner.
class PanelTest extends JFrame
private JPanel mainPanel;
private JPanel headerPanel;
public void PanelTest()
    mainPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
    mainPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(mainPanel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
    mainPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(5,5,5,5));
    mainPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 100));
    mainPanel.add(topPanel(), BorderLayout.NORTH);
    getContentPane().add(topPanel());
private JPanel topPanel()
    headerPanel = new JPanel ();
    headerPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension (300, 50));
    headerPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createCompoundBorder(
            BorderFactory.createTitledBorder("Header Image"),
            BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(5,5,5,5)));
    JLabel text = new JLabel("TEST");
    headerPanel.add(text);
    return headerPanel;
}I then use the following code in my main file to call and execute the code
class BerylMain extends JFrame
public static void main(String args[])
     PanelTest panelTest = new PanelTest();
     panelTest.setDefaultCloseOperation (JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
     panelTest.setSize(500, 400);
     panelTest.setVisible(true);
}I appreciate any advise on this.

public void PanelTest() {
    /* try commenting this.
    mainPanel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
    mainPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(mainPanel, BoxLayout.PAGE_AXIS));
    mainPanel.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(5,5,5,5));
    mainPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 100));
    mainPanel.add(topPanel(), BorderLayout.NORTH);
    getContentPane().add(topPanel());
}

Insert multiple panel into sub panel

hello
I've written a subVI which performs differents tasks. For each task there is a corresponding panel; That is my subVI has multiple panel. Each task is performed one at a time : I call the panel showing the actual task progression the active panel. My subVI runs (is called) on the block diagram of the main VI.
Now my question : How can I plot only the subVI active panel into the sub panel of main VI? I am wondering if at all it's possible! if not! is there another way of doing this?
Thanks for reply

Hi Achilles,
I've created a tab as you suggested. I set the size of my subVI's Panel to be equal to tab's size. But I'm having difficuties centering it into the sub panel control. Have you got a clue on how to achieve this?

Slide Multiple Panels at a time

I am working on a site where I have the actual panels for the sliding panel widget generated from a database, but I would like the previous and next buttons to move multiple panels at a time. Can anybody help me out? The test site is at http://www.XJ45.com

Sorry for the delayed reply.
Thank you for the suggestion. I'm afraid that it is not quite what I'm after. I only have one sliding panel area. It is the panels themselves that are generated through a server-side script. So I have a series of divs with ids being generated inside the sliding panel region, for example, <div id="slidingPanel1" class="SlidingPanelsContent">, <div id="slidingPanel2" class="SlidingPanelsContent">, etc. I am currently using "onclick="sp2.showPreviousPanel(); return false"" for the previous button and "onclick="sp2.showNextPanel(); return false"" for the next button. What I need is a script to shift 7 panels at a time since that is how many fit in the display area. I will include a sample of the code below. All help is appreciated.
<div id="feedBar" class="feedBar">
             <div id="feedNavL"><a href="#" class="feedNav fnL" onclick="sp2.showPreviousPanel(); return false"><span>Previous</span></a></div>
             <div id="feedNavR"><a href="#" class="feedNav fnR" onclick="sp2.showNextPanel(); return false"><span>Next</span></a></div>
        <div id="feedPanelRegion" class="SlidingPanels">
        <div id="feedPanelinnerWrapper" class="SlidingPanelsContentGroup">

How Do I Group Multiple Disks as One Album?

I've got the latest iTunes update, 11.0.4, and as with the update before it, I'm supposed to be able to group multiple disks as one album, but I can't figure out how, and can't find any directions at Apple.
I've lately begun ripping my large collection of symphonies and operas on CD into iTunes. Operas especially almost always come on two, three, or even four CD's, BUT IT'S ALL THE SAME OPERA, and the CD's come in the same boxed set. On top of that, there really aren't any "tracks" in an opera; the plot and the music unroll seamlessly from beginning to end (that sometimes takes 5 or 6 hours, which goes with the operatic territory).
On my CD player, I'm used to a pause between disks, but now that I've figured out how to get the "tracks" on each CD to play in order on iTunes (not so intuitive), I'd like to be able to go from the last "track" on Disk 1 to the first track on Disk 2 without interruption, since the technology should be able to support that option.
In the INFO box, I've tried keeping "1 of 3," "2 of 3," "3 of 3." No joy. So I've tried erasing the first element, 1, 2, 3, and just leaving the total number of disks. Again, no joy.
Since the album name is often filled in with something like "Carmen [Disk 1]" for example, and since Albums should have exactly the same name so that iTunes can figure out that in fact, they belong to the same work, I've tried deleting '[Disk 1]" etc. on all 3, leaving just "Carmen" in the appropriate space on the INFO panel for each of the 3 disks. Doesn't work.
Has anyone else been afflicted with the same problem?
Has anyone got a solution?

Have you seen this helpful article:
Grouping tracks into albums:
http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp
In the INFO box, I've tried keeping "1 of 3," "2 of 3," "3 of 3."
That is correct. Don't erase the first element, 1, 2, 3, that should not matter.
Since the album name is often filled in with something like "Carmen [Disk 1]" for example, and since Albums should have exactly the same name so that iTunes can figure out that in fact, they belong to the same work, I've tried deleting '[Disk 1]" etc. on all 3, leaving just "Carmen" in the appropriate space on the INFO panel for each of the 3 disks.
Also correct. Also chec, if the "Sort album name" is the same.
Do the artists differ on the tracks?
Then set the "Album Artist" on all CDs to the same name (Various Artists), also check, if the album sort artists names differ.

Multiple screens in one frame

Hi all,
I'd like to know how to be able to display multiple screens within one frame. Depending on the choice made on the first screen, the second screen should be either "View Default" or "Modify Default." The modifying will involve a number of other screens.
One idea is to group by Panel and control panels. Any better idea?
Regards,
Omer

Do you mean multiple displays in one frame? If so, you have several options. With JTabbedPane you could dynamically add new views to the frame, with the disadvantage of only being able to see one at a time. JSplitPane allows you to nest various views within one frame, though has the disadvantage of having extremely complex display logic when several split panes are displayed at the same time, and of displaying all displayed panes simultaneously.
Perhaps the best possibility is to use JDesktopPane, within which you can insert as many JInternalFrames as you want.

Move multiple events into one album

Hi,
I am trying to tidy up our photos on iPhoto.
Is there a fast, easy way to move multiple 'Events' into one 'Folder'
For example:
We have all of our photos from our honeymoon in Europe saved as seperate 'Events' According to the location. It was a 3 month trip so there are a lot of 'Events' or locations. Is there a way i can select all of them and put them into the Honeymoon 'folder' without them all merging into one big album?
I want to keep them as separate events within the folder so we can remember where they were taken.
I have been trying to drag the 'Event' over to the Honeymoon 'Folder' but instead of just going straight in there it creates a new unnamed folder on the left panel, and then i have to drag the event up to the honeymoon folder and delete the unnamed folder. It is proving rather time consuming and i have over 12000 photos to sort.
Any help would be great. Simple terms please!!
Thanks

lf you drag an event onto a folder in the left hand pane the photos in that Event will be added to a new album in that folder with the same name as the Event. .

Controlling multiple videos with one set of controls

I'm currently working on a project that allows the user to view multiple videos at one time. The videos will be exactly the same length and video format/type. I'd like to let the user use just one set of controls to view each video. Is this possible? If so, does anyone have any code samples?
I also want the video to not start when the application starts. I've got that done, but I'd also like the first panel of the video to be displayed. How can I do that?
Thanks!

PS, I'd also prefer for the controls to be detatched from any of the viewers, if possible. Thanks!

Wireless Network Management with Multiple SSIDs in one Wireless Profile

Could anybody explain me about how Multiple SSIDs in one Wireless Network Name (Network Profile) ? Configuration will be pushed to Windows 7 Pro from Wins Server 2008 R2.
Objective: Multiple office locations will have different SSIDs and when the laptop user travels one location to another, he/she could connect to wireless networks at any offices without any configuration change but utilizing "Automatically use my Windows
logon name and password (and domain if any.)" setting in EAP MSCHAPv2 properties.
Network Name: Enterprise
SSIDS: SFO-WIFI, LAX-WIFI,CHI-WIFI,NYC-WIFI,
Network Type:Access Point
Security Type: WPA2-Enterprise
Encryption Type: AES
Network Authentication Method: Microsoft:Protect EAP(PEAP)
My question is: (1) Will Windows try all the SSIDs in order to get connected to the Wireless Network at the office? (Let's say, user is in NYC, but will Windows try to find SFO-WIFI SSID first, wait until time out, retry?, and moves on to LAS-WIFI SSID,
wait until time out, retry?, and moves on to CHI-WIFI and finally tries NYC-WIFI SSID and found the SSID in the beacon from Access Point and authenticates through RADIUS?
(2) If the answer is YES, what is the waiting time/timeout setting for one SSID before moves on to another?
(3) If the answer is NO, what is the process to get user connected to NYC-WIFI SSID when he/she is in NYC office within the range of that SSID?

Hello Ninjago_2224,
About the multiple office location have different SSIDs, does the location A has the signal used in
location D?
Please go to Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network and Sharing Center
, and then click Manage wireless networks.
The windows will try to connect to these networks in the order listed.
Please check if the four SSID pushed by Windows Server 2008 is listed as mentioned above.
If the location A have the location D SSID and the location D SSID has higher priority, the Windows will connect to
location D SSID.
So about the question 1, the Windows will try the SSID in order.
About the question 2, I can’t find the accurate time that test one SSID and move to another. But based on my test, it is very fast.
For more information, please take a look at the following article.

Multiple Libraries on one computer

I want to store more music in iTunes than my iPod has room for (original iPod). I want to use one library for music that I don't want on my iPod and the other for the music I want to sync. I also want to be able to move music back and forth between the them.
How do I store music in multiple libraries on one computer without making separate computer user accounts or using the playlist work around?
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, apple-rules

Yes, I am referring to the auto syncing of playlists. Not all of my music is assigned to playlists and I don't want to create them - too many songs.
As I mentioned in my original post:
I want to store more music in iTunes than my iPod has room for (original iPod). I want to use one library for music that I don't want on my iPod and the other for the music I want to sync. I also want to be able to move music back and forth between the them.
I want to be able to store music in iTunes and play that music in iTunes without having them downloaded to my iPod. It would be nice to have a Library in iTunes that can be separate from the iPod stuff.
I think I found a work around (#12). Until I get a better solution I am going to create a master folder to which I will move all my music that I do not want syncing to my iPod. Then, I will do a manual sync and exclude that folder.
Thanks everyone.

How to delete Multiple Artists in one action?

Hi,
I want to do a big clean up on an iTunes library with over 4000 albums.
How can I delete multiple Artists in one action?
It looks like I can only delete 1 Artist at a time, and then this action shoots me to the top of the list. Which is a pain then having to scroll back down through such a huge list to then delete the others one at a time... each time being shot back to the top of the list.
For example I have the following artists;
The Alarm 01 – 1 song
The Alarm 02 – 1 song
The Alarm 03 – 1 song
The Alarm 04 – 1 song
The Alarm 05 – 1 song
The Alarm 06 – 1 song
And I want to delete them all in 1 action.
Can this be done? How best to do it?
Thanks in advance,
Dave

You can't delete "artists" - just songs (or songs grouped into albums). When iTunes displays the library or a playlist in Artists view it is doing so using the metadata values set in the relevant songs. If you're looking at this view:
then your selections in the left pane - the artists list - is filtering what you see on the right. When you select Delete via the keyboard or via a right-click operation, you are initiating an operation to delete the songs by that artist. To delete songs by more than one artist in a single operation you'll need to select and delete in Albums view:
or in Songs view:
where you can also use the Column Browser to filter songs by multiple artists:

Can there be multiple accounts on one id?

can there be multiple accounts on one id?

Unfortunately you can't do the logical and convenient thing of authorizing a computer with multiple Adobe IDs that are active simultaneously.
You can authorize accounts from different vendors; one account per vendor.
If you have multiple operating system users set up on the computer, you can register different OS users as different Adobe Account users.
