Problem of Change Color in JTable ....

Hi, i have a JTable contain a lot of data, HOW i change the color of some font of the data in the JTable ??
Thank You.
Regards,
Kenny

What is the criteria for changing font/colours ?? Is it everything in one column ? Everything in one row depending upon the value in one column ?
I posted something similar to this, with a solution, not too long ago if you want to search the forum.

  • Changing color in JTable objects

    Hi all,
    I'm writing an application which shows tabular view of events of some outcome. Now I want to give color to each row depending on the severity of particular parameters in the table. I've written application using swings and using components JTable. Is there any way to give color to each depending on value so that I can give colors to each row Red, Blue and Green like that and all
    Waiting for your precious replies,
    With best regards,

    Yes, you use a TableCellRenderer. Rather than explain further I'll just refer you to the tutorial about JTable.

  • Change color on item

    Hi,
    I have a problem with changing color after I change a field record.
    I have 10 column, when a press the button apper 20 records/pag, in one column i make some changes (ex. a change the date 12/10/2012->13/10/2012), after i made this change i want the
    background to change in a color.
    I put in when_button_pressed:
    execute_query;
    commit comment '';
         message('X');
         IF :col1<>:col2 THEN
    Set_Item_Property('blk.col2',BACKGROUND_COLOR, 'R255G255B0');
    END IF;
    I made the change in the column for 1 position, and then i press the button for saving the changes, but all the col2 is yellow now...i want only the position where i made the change(where col1<>col2(col1=col2 in general)).
    Thx.

    Hello,
    see the online Forms Builder documentation (F1), then use Set_Item_Instance_property() instead of Set_Item_Property().

  • Changing background color in JTable, only changes one row at a time...

    I'm trying to change the color of rows when the 5th column meets certain criteria. I think I'm very close, but I've hit a wall.
    What's happening is the row will change color as intended when the text in the 5th column is "KEY WORD", but when I type "KEY WORD" in a different column it will set the first row back to the regular colors. I can easily see why it's doing this, everytime something is changed it rerenders every cell, and the listener only checks the cell that was just changed if it met the "KEY WORD" condition, so it sets every cell (including the previous row that still meets the condition) to the normal colors. I can't come up with a good approach to changing the color for ALL rows that meet the condition. Any help would be appreciated.
    In this part of the CellRenderer:
            if (isSelected)
                color = Color.red;
            else
                color = Color.blue;
            if (hasFocus)
                color = Color.yellow;
            //row that meets special conditions
            if(row == specRow && col == specCol)
                color = color.white; I was thinking an approach would be to set them to their current color except for the one that meets special conditions, but the two problems with that are I can't figure out how to getColor() from the table, and I'm not sure how I would initially set the colors.
    Here's the rest of the relevant code:
        public void tableChanged(TableModelEvent e)
            int firstRow = e.getFirstRow();
            int lastRow  = e.getLastRow();
            int colIndex = e.getColumn();
            if(colIndex == 4)
                String value = (String)centerTable.getValueAt(firstRow, colIndex);
                // check for our special selection criteria
                if(value.equals("KEY WORD"))
                    for(int j = 0; j < centerTable.getColumnCount(); j++)
                        CellRenderer renderer =
                            (CellRenderer)centerTable.getCellRenderer(firstRow, j);
                        renderer.setSpecialSelection(firstRow, j);
    import javax.swing.table.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.Component;
    import java.awt.Color;
    public class CellRenderer extends DefaultTableCellRenderer
        int specRow, specCol;
        public CellRenderer()
            specRow = -1;
            specCol = -1;
        public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table,
                                                       Object value,
                                                       boolean isSelected,
                                                       boolean hasFocus,
                                                       int row, int col)
            setHorizontalAlignment(JLabel.CENTER);
            Color color = Color.green;
            if (isSelected)
                color = Color.red;
            else
                color = Color.blue;
            if (hasFocus)
                color = Color.yellow;
            if(row == specRow && col == specCol)
                color = color.white;
            //setForeground(color);
            setBackground(color);
            setText((String)value);
            return this;
        public void setSpecialSelection(int row, int col)
            specRow = row;
            specCol = col;
    }If I'm still stuck and more of my code is needed, I'll put together a smaller program that will isolate the problem tomorrow.

    That worked perfectly for what I was trying to do, but I've run into another problem. I'd like to change the row height when the conditions are met. What I discovered is that this creates an infinite loop since the resizing triggers the renderer, which resizes the row again, etc,. What would be the proper way to do this?
    Here's the modified code from the program given in the link. All I did was declare the table for the class, and modify the if so I could add the "table.setRowHeight(row, 30);" line.

  • Changing color without modifying existing items.. problem!

    Hello,
    I'm reletively new to flash, and am trying to modify a template and am running into a problem and I don't seem to know why Flash is acting so strange.
    I am going into a movie clip to edit the color of an item, and when I do so with a tint, it overrides any additional effects such as light, and text. The color appears almost as if it were just slapped on top of everything.
    When I edit the color in advanced mode, it is really a hit-or-miss to get the correct color, and will only modify when changing the offset RGB.
    And also when doing this, the text gradually changes color, for example: there are 4 items in total that I want to edit the color of. Each item is a different colored box with text on the front (for a main Navigation of the website). --- The first item, the text will stay white. Gradually through the second and third items it starts to change, and by the fourth / last item, the text is completely blue.
    Is it possible for a portion of text to be connected somehow to an object within the animation in a movieclip? If so, is it possible to go inside and edit this? -the shape, animation, and text?
    Is there an easier way to change the color of an item inside a movie clip? I can supply additional information if needed.. files etc.
    Am I doing something wrong / completely missing something?
    Thank you very much in advance for any help and/or advice!
    New Flasher,
    Lisa

    go one level deeper than the movieclip so you're editing the shape.

  • Problem with changing background colors in JPanels

    Hi,
    I have made an applet with Grid Layout and I have added JPanels in each grid. I have assigned a background color to all panels.
    Now what i am trying to do is, change the clicked JPanel's background color to "blue" on a mouse click and convert the previous changed JPanel's background to originally assigned color.
    This is the code that I have used:
    JPanel temp=null, m;
    String tempc, m_color;
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me)
              m=(JPanel)me.getComponent();
              if(m!=temp)
              m_color=m.getBackground().toString();   // retaining current background color so as to change later
              m.setBackground(Color.blue);
                   if(temp!=null) 
                        temp.setBackground(Color.getColor(tempc));  // change back to original color
              tempc=m_color;       //tempc and m_color are Strings
              temp=m;               //temp and m are JPanels
         }When I am executing the above logic, background color changes to blue on a mouse click but the previously changed JPanel is not changing back to original color.
    Can anyone please tell where is the above logic going wrong??
    Thanks
    Rohan

  • How to change color of selected label from list of labels?

    My Problem is that I have a list of labels. RowHeaderRenderer is a row header renderer for Jtable which is rendering list items and (labels).getListTableHeader() is a method to get the list. When we click on the label this code is executed:
    getListTableHeader().addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e)
    if (e.getClickCount() >= 1)
    int index = getListTableHeader().locationToIndex(e.getPoint());
    try
    if (((ae_AlertEventInfo)theAlerts.values().toArray()[index]).ackRequiredFlag)
    AcknowledgeEvent ackEvent = new AcknowledgeEvent(
    this, (ae_AlertEventInfo)theAlerts.values().toArray()[index]);
    fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);
    ((HeaderListModel)listModel).setElementAt(ACK, index);
    catch(Exception ex) {;}
    Upon mouse click color of the label should be changed. For some period of time ie. Upto completion of fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);
    This statement is calling this method:
    public void handleAcknowledgeEvent(final AcknowledgeEvent event)
    boolean ackOk = false;
    int seqId = ((ae_AlertEventInfo)event.getAlertInfo()).sequenceId;

    I tried but when i am clicking a particular label, the color of all labels in the List is being changed. So can you please assist me in changing color of only the label that is selected and the color must disappear after completion of Upto completion of fireAcknowledgeEvent(ackEvent);

    im a bit confused with the post so hopefully this will help you, if not then let me know.
    I think the problem is that in your renderer your saying
    setBackground(header.getBackground());which is setting the backgound of the renderer rather than the selected item, please see an example below, I created a very simple program where it adds JLabels to a list and the renderer changes the colour of the selected item, please note the isSelected boolean.
    Object "value" is the currentObject its rendering, obviously you may need to test if its a JLabel before casting it but for this example I kept it simple.
    populating the list
    public void populateList(){
            DefaultListModel model = new DefaultListModel();
            for (int i=0;i<10;i++){
                JLabel newLabel = new JLabel(String.valueOf(i));
                newLabel.setOpaque(true);
                model.addElement(newLabel);           
            this.jListExample.setModel(model);
            this.jListExample.setCellRenderer(new RowHeaderRenderer());
        }the renderer
    class RowHeaderRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer
        JTable theTable = null;
        public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value,
                                                      int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus){
            JLabel aLabel = (JLabel)value;
            if (isSelected){
                aLabel.setBackground(Color.RED);
            }else{
                aLabel.setBackground(Color.GRAY);
            return aLabel;       
    }

  • Images Change Colors between monitors while the UI stays the same

    Hey! Im having an issue where photoshop changes the colors when I move the window between my monitors, seen here: http://sta.sh/04y5s60vf3j This isnt due to the monitors themselves being different, it actually changes after a few seconds of moving it inbetween the monitors. The left one has been callibrated with a spyder 3 elite which I no longer have access to. I applied the file with windows color management instead of the spyder utility. The second one is new, and it is not callibrated by anything, but instead was done by hand with the built in brightness/contrast/custom RGB settings. Both of them are very close to eachother, enough so for my tastes. but when photoshop changes what the image looks like, it's causing problems. Interestingly enough, when I disable callibration for the monitor on the left, the image does not change colors between monitors, but instead always appears as it does on the right. but then they don't match up and the whole screen looked washed out because it's uncallibrated, so that doesnt do me any good. Another interesting thing to point out, is when this image is saved as a .JPG, and viewed with firefox the image appears exactly like the monitor on the LEFT (which is my main monitor) despite the left monitor being the one that is force changed. does anyone have any suggestions? It also appears that windows photoviewer is behaving the same way, though firefox does not. Meaning when I open an image in all 3 on the left monitor, they look the same, but when opened on the right monitor, windows photo viewer and photoshop both display the image as brighter and redder than firefox does. This is frustrating, because it seems photoshop is changing the image with my callibration on my left monitor to match what it looks like on the web, which it does. but it doesn't do this for the right monitor, or when the left is uncallibrated. Another issue I can see with this is even if the UI is the same shade of gray, the images are different between the monitors because of this change. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Alright! So I reread through all this, poked at some things on the internet, and I'm going to attempt to summarize what would be a good solution for all this (And it seems, it still won't be perfect, but to get myself into the best environment I can for not messing with images for an hour trying to make them look nice before I post them to the web. I painted something yesterday on the cintiq, popped it over to my laptop screen and it just looked washed out and terrible.)
    1. Get a X-rite EODIS3 i1 Display Pro, Callibrate laptop and cintiq. I do have the money to drop on something like this, especially if it's a time saver.
         Things I'm not sure about:
              a. There was a ton of complaints about the software not working when I checked reviews, but also a ton that said everything was great. most of them were mac users though.
              b. I'm not sure if problems would still be posed, even while calibrated, by me having a wide gamut monitor.
              c. I'm a terrible excuse for a human being and I think the colors showing up brighter on the wide gamut screen is pretty (I should just make my images this bright on a normal screen and there won't be any issues. >.>)
    2. Set Firefox to color manage (easy enough)
    3. Change my photoshop working space to sRGB (since they'll have been calibrated at this point)
    3. Accept the fact that most of the people who look at my work will be doing so on a monitor that is almost certainly uncalibrated, and I can't control what they will see on my screen, but I CAN control if the colors are -actually- what I want them to be on any properly calibrated device. which is probably the best way to go anyways.
    4. Make paintings, have fun.
    Now, you two have been going on about all sorts of interesting things in here, and it seems that calibration issue run much much deeper than I ever thought. Do either of you have recommendations for how I should tweak this list of things to do or other things I can/ should do? I'm not currently a working professional, but if I have anything to say about it, I will be within a few years (I'm going to school for illustration and studying concept design on my own time) so it'd be useful for me to get into good habits now.

  • How to create a radio button that changes colors

    I'm using Acrobat X and ID CS5 on Mac OS X.
    A couple of years ago someone on the forums explained to me how to create a button that changes color with each click. You can view a sample PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle.pdf. They gave me the document JS and showed me how to set the properties of the button. I've integrated the button into a particular series of PDF forms and it's worked out very well.
    Now I would like to do the same thing, but using a circle instead of a square. Can anyone tell me the best way to do this? Can I somehow set a radio button to cycle through colors in the same way? I design my forms initially in ID CS5 and then activate and format the fields in Acrobat X. I've tried using circles instead of squares in my ID document, but when I export to an interactive PDF, they're converted to squares.
    Any ideas?

    I understand how to make buttons cycle through colors-- the problem I'm having is that I'm trying to figure out how to make a circular button cycle through colors. When I export my ID document to PDF, my round button maintains it's original appearance, but when I click on it to cycle through the colors, it behaves like a square (see new PDF at https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/52882455/colorcycle2.pdf).
    If I use a radio button, I can get it to cycle through colors, but I don't want it to have a black dot in the middle. Is there a way to format the radio button to not show the black dot when clicked?

  • Manually change color of Exchange calendar in iCal?

    Good evening. Got kind of an odd problem...and not really sure when it became an issue, although I think it happened after I upgraded to Lion. But for whatever reason I cannot get to the 'Get Info' part of one of my calendars that is an Exchange calendar. I can right-click on all of my iCloud calendars and get to the get info section in order to change colors, sharing, etc, but when I click the get info option on my Exchange calendar, nothing happens.
    Not sure when this became the case, because I know I used to be able to change the color.
    Was wondering if maybe there was a preference file that I could manually edit in order to change the color, or if someone else has run into this and found a solution.
    Thanks a bunch.

    Hi guys,
    "googling" I found this applescript:
    tell application "iCal"
              set color of calendar "Calendar" to choose color default color {0, 0, 0}
    end tell
    Waiting for an Apple fix, you can use this. It's wok like a charm!
