Programming button for single and double click

I know how to programme a button to play a certain movie segment. However, in my current project I need to be able to programme a button in the menu so that
1. on rollover - nothing
2. on single mouse click - button colour changes + a parapraph of text appears on the menu screen in a predefined space
3. on double click - a movie clip plays
It might be a simple qiestion but I would greatly appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

Do not change the highligh and it will look like nothing is happening (make sure auto activate is not beign used)
2. on single mouse click - button colour changes + a parapraph of text appears on the menu screen in a predefined space
3. on double click - a movie clip plays

Single and Double clicks cannot be done like that. (Some players using layered menus do require a click to get things seen but not really what you are speaking about.)
Flash or Director may be better for this?

Doubt - mouse double click invokes both single and double click

Hi Friends,
I added mouse listener to a java component. In the mouseClicked() method, I have implementation for both mouse single and double click. When I try to double click that component it invokes the single click method first and the it invokes the double click method. My problem is when I try to double click that component it should invoke my double click method alone not single click too.
I'd be very grateful if someone can help me.
Thanks and Regards,
Sangeetha J

Your problem: a double click is two single clicks. The first click will always fire a single-click event. How's the computer supposed to know that another click is to follow?
All I think you could do is to instantiate a timer in the one-click method, set to whatever amount of time you think a double-click should take. If you get a second event while the timer's still active, it was a double-click and you can stop the timer and do the double-click action. Otherwise your timer should execute the single-click action after it timed out.
But this will make your GUI look like it's responding slowly to single-clicks.

ITunes inconsistent about single and double clicks

When I'm in Albums view mode, sometimes a single click expands the tracklisting of an album (like I want it to) sometimes it acts as a double click and begins play. This is incredibly frustrating when I'm trying to multi-select albums (ctrl + single-click), and a new album begins playing. The mouse is working consistently for other programs, so I don't believe there's a hardware problem. I've closed out of iTunes and rebooted the computer, but no love. I'm running ver 11.0.4.4 in Windows 8

A couple of days after posting this, I began to notice the mouse working inconsistently with other programs. I have narrowed-this down to a hardware problem, and not an iTunes problem. Thanks for looking everyone.

Detecting single and double click on row click

Hello All,
I am using jdev 11.1.1.6
I have a table displayed like below,

How can i achieve it ?

Hi,
You need the combination of a client listener, a Javascript function and a server listener.

How to handle both single click and double click from mouse

hey,
I looked in past threads and didn't get a proper answer for capturing both single and double click from the mouse.
in most applications the single click action does not interfere with the double click action, for example in a text editor, single click sets the cursor in between the text, double click marks a word, triple click marks a sentence, they do not bother each other, they all can happen first the single then the double and then the triple, but what if i have a very distinct action for each of the actions, the e.getClickCount() returns every time the number of clicks and if i use
if(e.getClickCount()==1)
    doSingleClick();
if(e.getClickCount()==2)
    doDoubleClick();it will always do first the single click and then the double click, which works fine with the example i gave, but not with what i want to do, so i was thinking to over come this that i will use another thread to run my tasks if dt has past since the last click and by the last click counts to perform the correct action and go to sleep until the next mouse click notify it, what do you think?
run this to get what i mean...
package blah;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class MouseClickTest {
     static long previousTime = System.currentTimeMillis();
     public static void main(String[] args) {

          component.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
               public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent me){
                    if(me.getClickCount()==1)
                         System.out.println("Now I will do single click action");
                    if(me.getClickCount()==2)
                         System.out.println("Now I will do DOUBLE click action");
//                    System.out.println("Click count: " + me.getClickCount());
          panel.add(component);
          Launcher.launch(panel);
package blah;

               contents.setBackground (backgroundColor);
          } else {

Recently my iPad does not consistently respond to a single or double click on the home button and i've had no choice but to turn it off and back on to escape fron the app i'm using. Can't say it is consistent with any one app. Suggestions are asked for

My ipad recently seems to be freezing and not responding to home button single or double clicks?

While this could potentially be a hardwar issue:
Try a rest: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the iPad shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the iPad back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
If the reset doesn't work, you may need to consider restoring the iPad to factory settings

My track pad stopped working with a single finger/double click when I try to open emails, and when I try to open apps on desk top. If I use two fingers, and then click open, I can open them. Thank You for your help.

5s rattling power button and double click noise

My 5s is having that power button rattle, and my home button is making that double click noise which is very annoying to me. I made an appointment at the Genius Bar to get it looked at, but the problem is that I two dents on my phone. Would they still replace my phone for free, or would they charge me that $79 for those dents, (I have Apple Care+).

Hard to tell, if the phone has been dropped, this might have been a reason for your home button problems.
Since you have Apple Care+, maybe you're lucky and they'll fix it for free.
Good luck

In an album, many pictures would show on the screen and double clicking one would enlarge it for adjustments. Now one larger photo shows and along the bottom severa smaller ones. Options which used to be at the top right of screen no longer show. Whel

In Aperture album about 16 photos would show on screen and double clicking on one would enlarge it for adjustments. Now one larger image shows with about 7 photos at bottom. Options for controlling this no longer appear at top right. How do I correct this?

Do you mean the "View" controls are missing in your Toolbar?
To add these controls back to the Toolbar, use the View menu and select "Customize Toolbar". Drag the View Controls back to the Toolbar.

Single button for line and SD on cisco 7861 SIP phone

Hi All,
Good evening. Can we configure one button for DN(Line) and SD. Our requirement is we need to configure one button for incoming and SD to a particular number.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Sankar.

Hi Thomas,
The calls (inbound & outbound) would be passing through PSTN line, as it is not for internal. when ever an external customer calls complete DID number from a fixed number of their , it should hit that particular line button and for outgoing when ever we want to dial that particular PSTN number , we need to use the same button assigned to that particular external customer. So will this work?
Regards
Sankar.

Single or double click with thumb doesn't work well on trackpad since upgrade to mountain lion

I'm using a 2009 MacBook Pro recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion.
The internal AND external trackpad behavior is disappointing compared to Snow Leopard. Neither one seem to register my thumb single or double click unless I do it pretty hard. For instance, selecting a word or double click to select a line.
A single finger works better but it's inconvenient to change years of training.
Sometimes I tap w/ my thumb on a button or link and it works and sometimes and I get no response until I use my finger. It's like the trackpad sensitivity is off. Single tap only half works.
I was really efficient with the old trackpad behavior and my thumb.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm the OP and I'm the one that listed the problem originally. I spent an hour with apple care and the genius level two guy suggested I wipe my whole system. LOL, for a 40MB app, yeah right. The issue with Safari 6 is javascript, according to yahoo javascript is turned off. If you try to change your classic yahoo mail to the newer version it will give you a javascript turned off error. So for whatever reason Safari 6 has javascript turned off even though it is clicked ENABLED in preferences. Crazy. I did find my solution though and that was to dump Safari 6 by giving myself "read and write" permissions and then dumping the safari chache, plist, and preferences files. Then I installed Safari 5.17 by downloading the dmg from the net using PACIFIST. I had complete directions but somebody at apple decided to delete the whole post.

Outlook 2010 apostrophe, single and double quotes are changes to question mark while sending mails to other internet receipient.

We are using MS Outlook 2010 as our mail client. But we have noticed that whenevr we sent a mail to any other internet mail recipient all the "apostrophe", "single" and "double quotes" have automatically converted to ?. We have
done almost all the workaround found in this site such as
1.New a message and focus on the message window > click File > Options > Mail > Spelling and Autocorrect… > Proofing > AutoCorrect Options… > AutoFormat > clear the box before “Straight quotes” with “smart quotes”
2. Used different encoding. We presently using US-ASCII for outgoing message. etc.
Need your help to sort out these issues urgently.
Waiting for a solution.

Hi,
What is your account type? IMAP, POP or Exchange?
Send an email from the webmail, ask the recipient if this issue persists.
As far as I know, this problem is always related to the encoding for outgoing messages, and here I suggest you try UTF-8:
Go to File -> Options -> Advanced -> International options -> Uncheck "Automatically select encoding for outgoing messages", then select "Unicode (UTF-8)" beside "Preferred encoding for outgoing messages" -> OK.
Hope this helps.

My fireefox icon has gone from my computer. So the only way I can upload firefox is to go into programmes and double click the firefox programme.

The icon which is on my main computer screen for firefox has gone.
The only way I can upload firefox now is to go to all programme, and double click the firefox programme.
How do I get the icon back onto the main screen so that all I have to do is double click the icon and firefox uploads?
Alsi I must not lose all my bookmarks.

go into the start menu > all programs & right click the firefox icon. in the context menu select "send to" and then "desktop (create a shortcut)" (not sure if those are the exact terms since i use a non-english os)
