Problem with my ComboBox

Hi,
I have a demo containing many sections. At the end of each
section a clip is loaded from the library that has a bunch of links
and a comboBox in it that lists all the other sections. Everything
is working as it should except that when you open the comboBox the
list appears behind everything else in the clip.
Why why why?
Also, is there a way to embed fonts in to the fields of the
list as with dynamic text fields so that alpha effect etc can be
applied to the CB (the movie it is in fades up from alpha 0 but the
CB text just appears)
Thanks for any help

Here's how I'm proceeding :
I click one time on the ComboBox to open the item list. Then, the list appears.
So, I click a second time on the wanted item. Then, the list disappears (it's normal !) but the wanted item is not selected !
I've tried to put "System.out.println" everywhere in my code and I saw that it seems that both item events and action events (depending on the case) are not captured !

Iam creating the combo boxes as follows from another source file.
private AutoSearchComboBox indexTagCombo,indexValueCombo
//The following function is called for loading the comboBoxes.
private void loadInitialIndexTagValues()
indexTagCombo.removeAllItems();
//Getting values to be fiiled in the comboBox.
Set tags = this.model.getAvailableIndexTags();
// Iterating over the elements in the set
Iterator tagIter = tags.iterator();
while (tagIter.hasNext()) {
indexTagCombo.addItem(tagIter.next());
//Loading index values.
String currTag = (String)indexTagCombo.getSelectedItem(); //Selection problem 1
The statement above returns me null & the follwing code doesnt fill the other comboBox.
Set values = model.getAllValues(currTag);
indexValueCombo.removeAllItems();
Iterator valIter = values.iterator();
while (valIter.hasNext()) {
indexValueCombo.addItem(valIter.next());
Have added an "itemListener" to the indexTagCombo as follows:
indexTagCombo.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e)
indexTagSelection(e);
private void indexTagSelection(ItemEvent e) {
if (e.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.SELECTED)
//The "getStateChange" is never ItemEvent.SELECTED,so that it never gets in to this loop.//Another problem
//code goes Here
There is some problem with the defined "AutoSearchComboBox" with selection.When I change the privately defined "AutoSearchComboBox" to JComboBox and make it editable,all the selection problems are gone.
In short all the "getSelectedItem" from the "AutoSearchComboBox" and the "itemstate" events defined are not going to the "ItemEvent.SELECTED"
What should I fix in the "AutoSearchComboBox" so that the selections work.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
P

Hi Smita,
When you create the Transaction code either thru Se80 or thru Se93... please see that you are giving the screen number asked there as 1000, which is the default screen number for the selection screen.
Also, please see if the checkboxes for the GUI Support are ticked. I think it iwll solve you problem.

Problems with linked ComboBoxes

Hi everyone, and thanks to those who will reply
It's been 3 days since i'm having the same problem :
I have 2 comboboxes in a JPanel, and the things to be displayed in the second one depends on the first (for example selecting 'Hewlett-Packard' in the first combo box display all HP model in the second one)
When i select a item in the first combobox, an actionPerformed is fired, and i can populate the second combobox. Unfortunately, the combobox disappear in my panel, but if i click on the place where it used to be, the popup list display correctly... !
I just want to know hox can i make it visible anyway. I've tried combobox2.repaint() method within the actionperformed method (combobox2 is the name of my second combo box as you've guessed), but it doesnt work...
Something else too : in my first list, if i select another vendor, the list in the second is not removed, but the list of workstation of the second-select manufacturer is appended... I've tried here the combobox2.removeall() method, but here again, no results....
this is my code :

I've removed all the things I found useless, but maybe i've removed too much ;-) I hope that this code is enough.
Thanks for your help (can you send a copy of your answers at : [email protected] - if you're too lazy to do this that's not a matter, but i don't know how i can find my post in all these posts... so that'd be cool ;-)

Thanks Martin
that makes sense now was driving me mad as I couldnt find anything saying it wasnt supported, makes sense seeing as its a flash server. Annoyning thing was it was playing in the content viewer locally when I previewd the folio you would think that would not be the case if it was not supported. Im going to try the rtmp links in a player in a web page and view it on the ipad out of curiosity and ill let you know. Out of interest have you done anyting with imported html into indesign as part of your folios ? I havent as yet but am curious to know how it holds up ?
Thanks again

Problem with InfoSwing comboboxes

I posted a message earlier concerning JDeveloper 2.0's InfoSwing
ComboBoxControl. I have a little more information that might
help someone who has used JDeveloper figure the problem out. The
problem is that I place the combobox controls on my form and set
the dataItemName and dataItemNameForUpdate properties but when I
run the applet and click on the combobox, the list doesn't show
up. In fact, I get the following error:

No Joel,
it seems that the JDev Team is unable to give a proper support
for their product. I wouldn't have been able too if I had
released a product with a bugs like that (e.g. combo boxes not
been able to populate). May be this is the reason Oracle is in
such a hurry trying to release JDeveloper 3.0. Well, let's hope
the bugs in the new version will decrease rather than increase.
For now I would suggest to you to try Symantec's Visual Cafe or
even Borland's JBuilder may suit what you need.
BTW, I left the ideas to finish my project using Java and went
back to the more stable combination Perl/CGI/HTML.

Problem with ComboBox / Matrix

Hi all,
I have this problem... when I try to populate a column with comboxbox ...
Code:
        Set co = lmatrix.Columns.Add("orgDist", it_COMBO_BOX)
            co.TitleObject.Caption = "Dist"
            co.Editable = True
            co.Visible = True
            co.DataBind.SetBound True, "@DIST", "Code"
        Set DBSource = lfrm.DataSources.DBDataSources.Item("@DIST")
            DBSource.Query
            For x = 0 To DBSource.Size - 1
                tp1 = Trim(DBSource.GetValue("Code", x))
                tp2 = Trim(DBSource.GetValue(3, x))
                co.ValidValues.Add tp1, tp2
                DBSource.Offset = x
            Next
- at the 'co.ValidValues.Add tp1,tp2' I receive this error
'Valid Value - The Value Exceed boundaries'
- tp1 max value is of 8 Char
- tp2 max value is of 50 Char
I've try to insert manually the value like validvalue.add "101","23123123....213" and it work correctly..
where is my error??
Bye!!
PS: Sorry for my english

Hi,
There's no problem with your code itself (however you don't need to set the DBDataSource offset, if you are only filling the ComboBox - GetValue picks the right data anyway...). It works fine (at least with 2004 PL23 + 2005 Build 119).
Looks like a problem with your data (or some "old" bug, but this would be the first time I heard about it...)?
...or did you solve it in the meantime?
Regards,
Frank

Problem with comboBox editor

Hi experts,
i am keeping a combobox renderer and editor in my JTable for 2 columns say 5th column and 7th column.
In renderer no Problem.
But while i am editing ,whenever i am choosing a perticular item from the drop down in the first row of table,it is affecting the remaining set of rows.,not all the rows also.
for example,next 5 rows are getting the same selected value.
next some 2 rows are getting affected.
the below 2 class are my renderer and editor.public class ComboBoxRenderer extends JComboBox implements TableCellRenderer {
        public ComboBoxRenderer(String[] items) {
                        super(items);
        public Component getTableCellRendererComponent(JTable table, Object value, boolean isSelected, boolean hasFocus, int row, int column) {
                if (isSelected) {
                // Select the current value
                setSelectedItem(value);
                return this;
}My ComboBox editor is public class ComboBoxEditor extends DefaultCellEditor {
        public ComboBoxEditor(String[] items) {
               super(new JComboBox(items));
}so i am using this render and editor in my swing screen by the following codeString strSP[] = {"P", "O", "H", " "};
column5.setCellEditor(new ComboBoxEditor(strSP));
column5.setCellRenderer(new ComboBoxRenderer(strSP));I am sure like the problem with my renderer and editoronly,but i am helpless.
Please if someone help me to come out of this problem,it will be much helpful for me .
thanks

Hi,
Thanks for u'r reply
I tried in so many ways.
I tried with u'r editor,and sun forum examples also.
I brief what i want.
I am having table with 3 column.
The zeroth col, and the 2 col is a combo box.so i am rendering.
when i choose a one from zeroth col combo Box ,the 2nd col ComboBox value has to change into YES
when i choose a apart from one from zeroth col combo Box ,the 2nd col combo Box value has to change into NO.
Here my Problem is
When ever i am choosing the particular value from the 1st combo box,it is affecting the all the combobox values below(set of values,not all)..To solve that i kept the commented line in the renderer but it is creating the new problem.
I am very seriously working to solve this problem,if any one suggest to solve this,it will be very much helpful to me.

Problem with JTable and JComboBoxes in cells

Hello,
I've build a Table with static comboboxes in the first row. These comboboxes are static because they are used to filter the content of the table.
I extended AbstractTableModel for the data handling and I use the DefaultCellRenderer for combobox handling.
So far everything works fine. But if I gain focus to one combobox and then click to another cell (either table cell or another combobox) i receive a NullPointerException from within the component:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTableUI$MouseInputHandler.adjustFocusAndSelection(Unknown Source)

     at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(Unknown Source)The problem is, that no error is visible on client side! I just see the NullPointerException in my console but no GUI Errors occur.
Actually I could leave the table as it is now because there are no obvious errors but I don't think its a good job to ignore exceptions.
Does anyone see where this problem could come from????
Do I have to extend the BasicTableUI somehow because the exception is thrown in there???
Thanks for any help!
Bye Jan

Hi brad,
I'm using eclipse and java1.4.2_06. Isn't it enough to write the program arguments to the run configuration in eclipse?!
I tried that but it didn't work out, I get the same error msg. :(
But I can say that whatever happens inside the UI, the exception is thrown before I receive a mouseClicked event on the table itself. I added some kind of dummy mouse listener to the table that only prints the events to the console. Is the cell renderer or cell editor using is own MouseAdapter?
You said: ...consume the event so the table won't react....
How could I catch this MouseInputHandler???
Thanx!

Problem with Background image and JFrame

Hi there!
I've the following problem:
I created a JFrame with an integrated JPanel. In this JFrame I display a background image. Therefore I've used my own contentPane:
public class MContentPane extends JComponent{
private Image backgroundImage = null;
public MContentPane() {
super();
* Returns the background image
* @return Background image
public Image getBackgroundImage() {
return backgroundImage;
* Sets the background image
* @param backgroundImage Background image
public void setBackgroundImage(Image backgroundImage) {
this.backgroundImage = backgroundImage;
* Overrides the painting to display a background image
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
if (isOpaque()) {
g.setColor(getBackground());
g.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
if (backgroundImage != null) {
g.drawImage(backgroundImage,0,0,this);
super.paintComponent(g);
Now the background image displays correct. But as soon as I click on some combobox that is placed within the integrated JPanel I see fractals of the opened combobox on the background. When I minimize
the Frame they disappear. Sometimes though I get also some fractals when resizing the JFrame.
It seems there is some problem with the redrawing of the background e.g. it doesn't get redrawn as often as it should be!?
Could anyone give me some hint, on how to achieve a clear background after clicking some combobox?
Thx in advance

I still prefer using a border to draw a background image:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.image.*;
import javax.swing.border.*;
public class CentredBackgroundBorder implements Border {
    private final BufferedImage image;
    public CentredBackgroundBorder(BufferedImage image) {
        this.image = image;
    public void paintBorder(Component c, Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height) {
        int x0 = x + (width-image.getWidth())/2;
        int y0 = y + (height-image.getHeight())/2;
        g. drawImage(image, x0, y0, null);
    public Insets getBorderInsets(Component c) {
        return new Insets(0,0,0,0);
    public boolean isBorderOpaque() {
        return true;
}And here is a demo where I load the background image asynchronously, so that I can launch the GUI before the image is done loading. Warning: you may find the image disturbing...

import java.io.*;
import java.net.URL;
import javax.imageio.*;
import javax.swing.*;

    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
        JFrame.setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated(true);
        JFrame f = new JFrame("BackgroundBorderExample");
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        JTextArea area = new JTextArea(24,80);
        area.setForeground(Color.WHITE);
        area.setOpaque(false);
        area.read(new FileReader(new File("BackgroundBorderExample.java")), null);
        final JScrollPane sp = new JScrollPane(area);
        sp.setBackground(Color.BLACK);
        sp.getViewport().setOpaque(false);
        f.getContentPane().add(sp);
        f.setSize(600,400);
        f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
        f.setVisible(true);
        String url = "http://today.java.net/jag/bio/JagHeadshot.jpg";
        final Border bkgrnd = new CentredBackgroundBorder(ImageIO.read(new URL(url)));
        Runnable r = new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                sp.setViewportBorder(bkgrnd);
                sp.repaint();

Problem with checkbox on table component

Hello i am having a problem with checkbox in table component
i am developing something like a shopping cart app and i have a checkbox in my table component , i want users to select items from the checkbox to add to thier cart, They can select the items from cartegory combobox , my problem is when they select the items from the checkbox if they select another category the alread selected once do not display in my collection opbject please how can i maintain the state of the already selected items in my collection object

Hi,
Please go through the tutorial "Understanding scope and managed beans". This is available at:
http://developers.sun.com/prodtech/javatools/jscreator/learning/tutorials/2/scopes.html
The details of the selected items need to be stored in an object that is in session scope.
Hope this helps
Cheers

Performance Problems with UI Element Tabstrip and IE

Hi,
I use the UI Element "Tabstrip" in a Java Web Dynpro Application. The application gets slower the more I jump from one tab to the next. All the other UI Elements (e.g. ComboBox, TextField) are affected, too.
A system trace on the Web AS seems to indicate that it is a client problem.
We are using the Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 XP SP2 and the J2EE Engine 6.40.
It seems to be a problem with the Tabstrip element in combination with the IE (Firefox 3 works fine). We created a test application with only the tabstrip element, three tabs, and a combo box. After several clicks on the tabs, the test application gets slower...
Does anyone has had the same problem with the tabstrips, or anyone an idea what might be the reason??
Thanks,
Sabine

Problems with multiple TestStand versions on the same computer

I installed LabVIEW 2014 and TestStand 2014; then later I installed TestStand 2010 SP1 and have been using it since. (I also updated LabVIEW 2014 to 14.0f1; I think I did that after installing TestStand 2010 SP1.) Is this "legal?" I have been seeing strange behavior with TestStand 2010 SP1:
- if I type in any expression text boxes in the Sequence Editor (e.g., for a pre-expression), I periodically get an error dialog as I type:
"The .NET support dll could not be loaded. This is caused by an assembly path that could not be resolved. Error Code: -18700, The .NET support dll could not be loaded. This is caused by an assembly path that could not be resolved! Source: 'TSAPI'
After I acknowledging the dialog, I can contine to type a little more before getting the dialog again, but it doesn't seem to invalidate anything I type.
- If I open the Simple LabVIEW Simple User Interface that ships with TestStand 2014 while TestStand 2010 SP1 is active, LabVIEW immediately crashes. I can open all the subVIs without a problem, but the top-level VI always crashes LabVIEW.
So I used the TestStand Version Switcher to make TestStand 2014 active, opened the top-level Simple UI VI, and deleted all the UI controls. Then I switched back to TestStand 2010 SP1, and then I was able to open the top-level VI. I added back the TestStand UI controls to the VI, and now the VI runs. But many operations return a TestStand error dialog, such as Close Execution ("Value invalid or out of range [Error Code: -17300]"), Logout ("Cannot find item to select in ComboBox [Error Code: -2147467259]"), and (critically) Exit ("Operation Failed. Error Code: -17500]") and the X in the upper right corner of the window ("Operation Failed. Unknown System Error in <VI name>"). So I can't exit without killing LabVIEW.
These two issues may be unrelated. But maybe installing an older version of TS after installing a newer version is not a valid use case? Is the ActiveX error a result of this? Should it be possible to use a (simple) UI written for a newer version of TestStand be able to work with an older version of TestStand?
I have another issue that is probably unrelated, but I'll bring it up here just for completeness. If I right-click on a LV property node or invoke node for a property or method from the TS API and ask for help for the property or method, a command window flashes briefly before showing the TS help window with the top-level item selected (i.e., it doesn't take me to the help for the selected property or method). I have this problem with either version of TS active, and I saw this problem even before I installed TS 2010 SP1. I seem to recall having this problem once before, but I can't find the solution. I don't know if this problem is an indication of some other larger problem.
For what it's worth, I am running WIndows 8.1 on a virtual machine.

Thanks for the information, Doug. Maybe the ActiveX error dialog I get while in the sequence editor is related to the fact that I'm running an unsupported operating system.
So using a UI that was created in a newer version of TS is not supposed to be able to run with an older version of TS. Is there any way to enforce this (like having a dialog appear informing you of the incompatibility when the TS engine is loaded) and avoid an immediate crash? (Maybe the crash has to do with the incomaptible OS as well.)
Is there a way to "relink" a UI to an older version of TestStand? Can you just relink all the ActiveX reference controls/constants to the TS ActiveX servers? As far as I can tell, everything I am trying to do with the new TS version should work with the old version. And also, as far as I can tell, the TS version switcher changes the version of the available ActiveX server; so unless my UI uses a feature unavailable in older TS versions, I would think it shouldn't know the difference. (I'm making a lot of assumptions in that last statement, so I may be totally wrong here.)
Thanks,
Jeff

The course titles are loaded into an array and then into a
combobox. When a course is chosen a second combobox loads the
relevant dates array for that course. When a date is chosen the
time is shown in a dynamic text box.
Problem is - if more than one course is on the same date it
will show the time for the latest course with that date. For
example - course 1 is on 15 sept at time 10:00 to 16:00, course 2
is also on 15 sept at time 11:00 to 16:00. When 15 Sept is chosen
for course one it displays the time for course 2 on this date -
presumably because it comes later in the text file.
I've attached the actionscript for this - Can anyone help me
sort this out??

Hi. I'm making a form for work for people to book places on
training courses. Having an annoying problem with variables that
i'm hoping has a simple solution. Any help with this will be much
appreciated.
All the info is held in an external text file which looks
like this (but much longer):
&totalcourses=2&
&course0=Please choose a course&
&course1=my course one&
&totaldates1=3&
&c1date0=Select a date...&
&c1date1=15 September 2006&
&c1time1=Time: 10:00 to 16:00&
&c1date2=23 January 2006&
&c1time2=Time: 11:00 to 16:00&
&c1date3=28 February 2007&
&c1time3=Time: 12:00 to 16:00&
&course2=my course 2&
&totaldates2=3&
&c2date0=Select a date...&
&c2date1=15 September 2006&
&c2time1=Time: 11:00 to 16:00&
&c2date2=08 January 2007&
&c2time2=Time: 9:00 to 16:00 &
&c2date3=15 February 2007
&c2time3=Time: 12:00 to 16:00&
