Netbeans GUI editing: insert image / icon

Hi everybody,
I have build my GUI using the NetBeans 5.0 GUI editor. Does anybody know how to insert an image or icon in my GUI using this editor?
Best regards,
Jethro

I've only tinkered with netbeans for about 5 minutes, but it seemed easy enough -
in design view add a label, highlight the label, go to the label properties window
(bottom right corner), click the elipse next to icon, select the image file, OK out
an image appears

SCN document: 'Insert Image' greyed out at a certain stage/size

I noticed a similar issue likeTammy has reported in discussion/thread .Cannot insert or upload an image
After having inserted text and several images to a draft document, the 'Insert Image' icon became greyed out at a certain stage/size.
I did some tests following document Solution for Error: Cannot Insert Images on SCN Content, but the the behavior remained the same. Only after having deleted the last inserted image in the document > Save Draft > Edit again the 'Insert Image' icon was not greyed out anymore which is argueing for a size restriction.
The same html coding as in the document put into a blog does not grey out the ‘Insert Image’ icon. But I found out that after clicking on the ‘Insert Image’ icon > ‘From your Computer’ tab ‘Browse’ is greyed out. Strange and argueing against a size limit is, when I choose ‘Uploaded Images’ I can select images and still insert them into the blog.
Does someone have similar experiences / can assist.
Thank you, Barbara

We have a recent discussion in SCN support.
He has same problem. Have a look into the discussion Issue with 'Insert Image' button while creating document in SCN
I suggest to split you document into two part as part 1 and part 2.

Unable to insert image in editor

When I try to insert images in the text editor, by clicking the "insert image icon", a black box appears with the "insert image" message in the top left corner of the box and the close button (X) in the top right hand corner. However, the "insert video" option works OK. Can anyone help me to resolve this problem?

I am referring to the editor used for posting questions etc in Adobe Forums. That is, the editor I am now using to post this reply to you. I have explained as clrearly as I can what happens when I click the icon, which allows for the insertion of images. I hope I have provided a better understanding.

Insert image into table

Please let me know how to insert images to table using SQLDeveloper?

Some history...
SQL Developer 1.2.1 actually does support loading BLOBs and it has an internal viewer that can display some, but not all, common extensions (e.g., jpeg images will display, but not flv - flash). The 1.2.1 UI is different than the 3.0/3.1 UI Jim describes in his blog post: double clicking on a BLOB cell in the Table Data tab causes it to display a "..." at the right-side of the cell. Clicking that takes you to the Edit Value dialog where Load/Save/View capability resides.
External editor support was in place at least by 2.1, but large BLOBs seem rather slow to load. Improved performance and the current UI appeared at least by 3.0, including the Pencil icon and the hyperlinks.

Inserting images with no backround

hi, i'm creating a simple webpage with a few pictures.i know how to insert images but the problem is that DW always inserts an image with a white background or any background i have set before exporting edited image from PS or any other image editor. i need to insert a picture with a blended stroke, i mean a picture which is cropped through curves and then its stroke is blended. even though i set no background, the image is exported in white background and DW recognizes it this way. i hope you understand what i have in mind. to illustrate it i need to achieve something like this:
that yellow background is a background of my website and the flower should be inserted the way you see.
thanks for your help

Below, I made a Twitter icon in Photoshop on a transparent background layer, denoted by the gray & white checkerboard. See screenshot.
File > Save for Web. Select PNG-24 with transparency.
See screenshot.

Insert image - HTTP error

I've been using Firefox (now 24.0) to browse NI forum and I've never been able to insert images in my messages, and so I always include them as attachments.
I select "Insert/edit image" icon
I select "From My computer >> Browse"
I point to the image file and I get "Error Code: HTTP Error"
Probably there is something I miss, but I don't know what.
Could someone help me, please?

Using local/testing server with cs5 inserting images look fine in the split screen but do not show

Hi
If I open example: header.php and insert any photo jpeg/.html ecs i can see the images in the split screen but not in the browser if i save then refresh. I am able to make any change to the code ecs. and they are reflected just fine. I have tried this with my fireworks images .html and when that did not work i tried a strait jpeg off the desktop. This all did not work. I have deleted the local server then step by step created a new one via devnet instruction. This did not work! everything looks fine i even tried in 3 sep browsers with 0 luck....There is no remote server connected at this time because i am making a child theme for my current site. After all changes are done we will the ftp the word press files to site and change.
Ps i even started over from scratch with 0 positive affects....

After a lot of pain!!!!!!! the issue is fixed lol After 3 weeks I have overlooked the obvious !!! so the simple fix was the path of the image. Yes i feel stupid 10 years in lol....
Apparently dreamweaver cs 5 will not use the full path when inserting images into the page example: If you drag the image out of your assets folder or however you do it, DW will give you a path like this <img src="images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729"> This is not the full path and when your pist!!! you cant see things like that ;( so the image path should look like this:
<img src="wp-content/themes/adszoom/images/glass.jpg" width="800" height="729">
also in the html files example of bad then good!

How do you make an array of image icons and then call them?

How do you make an array of image icons and then call them, i have searched all over the internet for making an array of icons, but i have
found nothing. Below is my attempt at making an array of icons, but i cant seem to make it work. Basically, i want the image to match the value of the roll of the dice (rollVal)
Any help would be greatly appreciated, some code or link to tuturial, ect.
/** DiceRoller.java
* Roll, print, Gui
import javax.swing.*;
public class DiceRoller extends JFrame
     private ImageIcon[] image ;
     public String[] images = { "empty", "dice1.jpg",
               "dice2.jpg", "dice3.jpg", "dice4.jpg",
               "dice5.jpg", "dice6.jpg" };
     public Dice die;
     private int rollVal;
     public int rollNum;
     private JLabel j1;
     public DiceRoller(){
          j1= new JLabel("");
       die =new Dice();
       int rollVal;
       rollVal = die.roll();
       image = new ImageIcon[images.length];
     for(int i = 0; i < images.length; i++){
      image[i] = new ImageIcon(images);
     if (image!=null){
          j1.setIcon(image[rollVal]);
     System.out.println("Roll = "+die.roll());

Demo:

Is it possible to insert images in Adobe 9 Standard?

It appears that it is not possible to insert images in Adobe 9 Standard. There is no TouchUp Object Tool in the Advanced Editing Toolbar in the standard version. Only a TouchUp Text Tool. Is this not a basic function being able to add or change an image in a document? The tutorials all show this as a capability but they are also demonstrating in the Pro version of Acrobat. Is there a work around or have I been suckered into buying a product that doesn't quite meet my needs?

The Touch-Up Object tool is not available in Standard.
Adobe Acrobat is not meant to be a word processing program; it is meant to be a cross-platform method for document exchange. Changes are best made in the source program. While the answer to your question would not have been obvious from this list, it is a good reference for the difference between Acrobat products: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/matrix.html .
If for some reason it is not possible to edit the source file and create the pdf again, you can insert your image as a form button and then flatten it. A lot more work, but post if you want help with this.
--For other folks reading this thread, Adobe offers trials of its programs. Consider testing before buying.

Inserting images in reports

Hi,
I am trying to dynamically insert icons in my template. The icon paths are provided by the XML data definition via the <?Item_icon> field.
It doesnt work if I write a syntax like:
<fo:external-graphic src="url(Item_icon)" />
However, the syntax works if I do not use fields:
<fo:external-graphic src="url('D:\icon1.gif')" />
Is there a way to dynamically insert images in my report?
Thank you
Magda

The image works if I use $OA_MEDIA or a public URL. I cannot have signature files sitting in a public directory or a public URL.
How do you secure your signatures? The images have to sit on the server in a non-public directory but be accessible to the XML publisher process. What can I do to enable this access?

Inserting image in rtf doc

Hi all,
i am trying to make my own rtf editor , I've read the most of the toppics in this forum on this issue,
but I'm stucked on inserting the hex Data into the document.
Do I actually need to override ImageView?
I found a method in RTFReader (instantiated from read(InputStream in,...)) handleBinaryBlob(byte[] data).
RTFReader is private, so I cannot override this method. Should I override the read method in
RTFEditorKit and then call the read method in DefaultEditorKit, or I could just use the doc.insertString(...) with the binary data inside of the overriden RTFEditorKit read method? I will lose the functionallity of the RTFParser this way.
I know I should override read and write methods but how?
So could somebody help me on this?
The code for creating the binary data from buffered image and creating the Icon from StanislavL follows:
ImageIcon icon=(ImageIcon)StyleConstants.getIcon(attr);
if (icon!=null) {
int w=StyleConstants.getIcon(attr).getIconWidth();
int h=StyleConstants.getIcon(attr).getIconHeight();
ByteArrayOutputStream os=new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PNGCodec p=new PNGCodec();
ImageEncoder pe=p.createImageEncoder("PNG",os,null);
BufferedImage bi=new BufferedImage(w,h,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
bi.getGraphics().drawImage(icon.getImage(),0,0,null);
pe.encode(bi);
byte[] ba=os.toByteArray();
int len=ba.length,i;
StringBuffer sb=new StringBuffer(len*2);
for (i=0;i<len;i++) {
String sByte=Integer.toHexString((int)ba & 0xFF);
if (sByte.length()<2)
sb.append('0'+sByte);
else
sb.append(sByte);
String s=sb.toString();
out.write("{\\pict\\pngblip ");
out.write(s);
out.write("}");
extracting image
String content; //<- image representation
int len=content.length();
//converts to binary representation
byte[] buf=new byte[len/2];
for (int j=0; j<len/2 ;j++) {
String c1=content.substring(j*2,j*2+1);
String c2=content.substring(j*2+1,j*2+2);
byte b1=Byte.parseByte(c1,16);
byte b2=Byte.parseByte(c2,16);
buf[j]=(byte)(b1*16+b2);
//creates image from binary
Image img = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createImage(buf);
ImageIcon icon=new ImageIcon();
icon.setImage(img);
if ((icon.getIconHeight()<0) || (icon.getIconWidth()<0))
return;
MutableAttributeSet attr=new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setIcon(attr,icon);
//inserts image in the document
document.insertString(currentOffset," ",attr);
currentOffset++;
I guess these two functions must be implied into the overriden EditKit write and read methods.
Could somebody give me a start idea?
regards
rumpi

Thanks for reply.
It did't helped me a lot or I'dont really understand your idea.
What you say in your postings is build my own reader and writer.
For example to open a rtf file in my jeditorpane I must read from
the input stream each byte and reimplementing AbstractFilter, RTFParser and RTFReader
I could get all headers like \par or \pic and then rtfDoc.insertString(pos, "the label content", attr) with the attributes extracted from header.
When that is the only way I am asking myself what are the swing people for?!?!
I'll try to do that myself, so I'm not asking for code but I would appreciate
some detailed info about it. For example when I dont use RTFReader anymore
I loose everything what I've got untill now. So I should read every byte opening a file
and check like in RTFParser if the first character is "\", then the next couple of bytes
untill I get the header. Then I should check which labels(text) is this header for(until the next header), so
I could insert a string with the according attribute set? For Icon when I get the
\pic header I read the byte sequence and build the picture just like you wrote.
My Editor is an applet so I've hoped I wouldn't send too much code to the client
so reimplementing RTFParser, Reader... would slow it down, but whatever.
Thats really a lot of work only because the given classes are not extendable, grrrr.
Viravan, thanks for the fast reply , but like I said , I 've already read all relevant
postings in this forum and didnt found something really helpful. I already read all
tutorials and articles from sun about this issue and I still have the feeling I'm a freshman
in this area.
I'm still angry with the swing team about it, this bug is noted since 2001 I think. grrr

Correct workflow when inserting images into text, InDesign CS4

Hi,
I am new to InDesign and I have a problem regarding a really basic thing and I would be very grateful for help.
I am writing an article which is about 10 pages long. It consists mostly of text. I have finished writing and now I want to add some illustrations with descriptions. I've already figured out it's best to insert images into the text frame so they behave as "anchored objects" and they move together with text when I add or delete something on previous pages. Now I would like to place TWO OR MORE images, one next to each other, in a line. This is a bit tricky but I created an object style with Position: Custom in "Anchored object options" and it works more or less fine. This works great but now it would be hard to add descriptions to these images that would still be anchored.
So I created something different. I made an empty rectangle frame, a small text frame under it and grouped them. Then I placed it in my master text frame and basically did the same thing as for previously described images. Now I place the newly loaded image in the empty rectangular frame and add text in the empty text frame. BUT now I have problems with frame size for different-size images.
What if I have a REALLY LONG article and want to add LOTS of images with decriptions that would be anchored in the text so I can edit previous pages? I can do this my way, but it's extremely uncomfortable and takes ages. Is there any comfortable, non-destructive workflow for doing such things?
Sorry for my English.

Hi,
I would recommend following steps:
Place one or more images
Don't anchor them yet.
Arange them (the images) relatively to each other, add a text frame and arrange them correct relatively to the images.
Group images and text
Copy (or cut) them into the clippboard
Set the curser into the text where it should flow
Paste it
Adjust the anchored object (the group)
You need to group several objects to anchor them together as one anchor.
Further recommendation:
For the images I would specify an object style for fitting, stroke, corner optione.
For text frames I would specify an object style for text object options, like text offset, and used paragraph style, no boarder, etc.
For the group I would spcify an object style which leaves above mentioned settings undefined (option field is grea or has a dash). But the anchored position of the whole group and text wrapping should be specified.

Not showing image in basic copy gif image icon and place on html page

Trying to do a basic copy gif image icon and place it on a basic html page.
The image shows up in my local page and shows on remote side but when I go to view in browser it does not show as a image. It shows the border but no image.
The directions were (working with windows xp and IE8)
Download the image to your C:\temp folder.
4. Copy the gif file from your C:\temp folder and paste it in the same folder where your .html or .asp file is.
I copied the image with right click save as in many different areas of computer. I even put on desktop.
I add image and it shows on the site I am working in but when putting to remote side it does not view as an image on the browser.
I have cleared cashe as well as pressed cntrl/refresh and still nothing.
Other images work and show.

Thanks!

Basic assumptions:
You have Defined a site.
All files reside within the defined site (including image files)
All files use the appropriate file extensions, for example, image.gif
You have saved and uploaded all site files to your server.
You are EXACTLY naming the source image (no errant capital letters) in the link.
If your other images are linking properly and showing, delete this image and insert it again (or re-link it to the image file within your site structure).

Preview Image icon in Finder

Hi everyone!
I couldnt exactly find a help topic for this...
I just want to know why the image icon in the finder windows doesnt change when you alter the image in preview? Say I cropped an image in preview or rotated it, the preview icon of the image in finder is the original but when you click to open it, its the altered image.
Should I have clicked on something in the preferences? Or is it really like that.
Because in my desktop, the image does change when it got restarted but not in the finder window.
Any reply would be appreciated....thanks!

I have the same problem. I edit my pictures with HP Photosmart Studio. I might crop it, rotate or change it to black and white but the icon will stay the same. When I open it in Preview it is fine. I also have Windows XP installed through parallels, the strange thing is when I go to XP windows explorer it shows the correct Icon and correct image for the picture.
It really buggin me please help.
Also when I try to upload a picture I can not switch it to thumbnail like in Windows to see the picture I am attaching. Any ideas???
