Re-sizeable/scrollable Multi-window GUI

Hi all,
I've developed a desktop GUI using Netbeans 5.5 and 6.0 without prior GUI design experience, it was relatively easy to use until I started creating multiple windows; I have difficulties creating multiple re-sizable, scrollable text areas. I need something similar to Netbeans itself which has different windows/text areas which users can display/hide/move/resize etc.
I'm wondering if I should continue using Netneans or try other tools/techniques/frameworks. I'd appreciates sharing your experience/ideas.
Thanks
Joe

for each window or iframe, put it's own text area in it's own scrollpane.
There are docking frameworks available if you want to do something more like an IDE, or there's always JDesktopPane and JInternalFrame in Swing.
But I think you need to be more specific in what you are asking. What is the problem you are actually having?

New firefox 10.0 wont let me open mult windows, only tabs

new firefox 10.0 wont let me open mult windows, only tabs. I have looked at tools/options/tabs and the open new windows in tabs is not clicked. have rebooted computer with no better results

That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Displaying a native Windows GUI program in a JFrame

Hello,
I am working on a troubleshooting program that will bring up a control panel applet along with my own JFrame containing instructions on what to do for a certain topic. In order to avoid one window overlapping another, I want to be able to control where both windows appear. One possibility I have thought of is to execute the control panel applet so it appears within the same JFrame or a different JFrame, and then I could control the position of that.
I am using Runtime.exec to execute the control panel applet from the command prompt. Simply adding the Process that this function returns to the contentPane (Container for my JFrame) does not work because Process is in a different class hierarchy from Container.
I was wondering if anyone knew either how to do what I just mentioned or how to control the position of a windows gui app that i execute from the command prompt. Any information that at least pointed me in the right direction would be very helpful. Thanks.

Just to be clear...
You have two seperate processes (two JVMs.)
If so "class hierarchy" is meaningless because there is no interaction between the two JVMs that you do not explicitly provide.
So you have several choices.
First you can delve deep into the internals of windows and figure out how to determine where the various windows appear on the screen. Unless you are already an expert in the windows API this is going to take a lot of research.
Second you can simply send use a communication medium (like sockets) to let each application tell the other app where it is. I believe the java api allows you some information on the screen position. If not then you will have to again delve into the windows internals.
Three when both applications are running then only one application has a gui. The other application uses a communication medium (like a socket) to send relevant info to the other app. And the other app manages both GUIs.

Popup parenting issues in multi window

Hello folks,
I have a multi-window AIR application - there is one base
application window, but we currently hide that and use mx:Window
for all of our application windows. The application allows you to
open new windows to enable easy drag and drop between different
areas of content in the app. We use the addPopup method to display
a custom editor control when working a specific content item. That
means that you could have multiple windows open and each one
displaying it's own popup to edit an item that the user if viewing
in the window. 60% or so of the time, the popups work fine and
parent to the proper window, but the other 40% of the time, the
popup will parent to a different window. (I can post a link to a
screencast demonstrating the behavior).
The custom editor class has the following method, this is
called to bring up the editor window. We cache these editors,
following the advice for memory management by Sean Christmann and
others.
public function showOnView(view:UIComponent, mobj:*):void {
PopUpManager.addPopUp(this, view as DisplayObject, true);
PopUpManager.centerPopUp(this);
callLater(_finishShowOnView, [view, mobj]);
The _finishShowOnView method makes sure the instance of the
editor is pointing to right model object. None of that touches the
parent of the popup though.
Anyone have any thoughts?

Popup describe is case-sensitiveI haven't had a case sensitivity problem with the pop-up describe - where it works, it works if the name in the code is in either upper or lower case (I am assuming the actual object name is uppercase). However, it still doesn't work properly for objects owned by another user - it only finds something owner by another user if the current user has a private synonym with the same name. Even then describing the synonym name pops up the table details and describing the table with owner prefix pops up the synonym details.
Ctrl+up-arrow or Ctrl+down-arrow to replace the editor contents from the history is great, but there is no ability to change the shortcut in the accelerators preferenceI agree with the frustration of not being able to change the Ctrl+Up/Down short cuts, but we will have to wait until they can improve it.
The SQL Worksheet window frequently loses it's syntax coloring ...I haven't had problems with that
There is no preference setting to control the starting point in the file system for File/Open or File/Save As...The File Open does remember the last four (?) directories that you have opened files from as short cuts, but being able to force it to open a specific directory by default would be good. The preference that Raghu mentioned is the directory where it looks for scripts when running them, rather than opening a file.
Explore Directory from the Files tab tree doesn't seem to start from where you try to "explore"Like Raghu, I don't know what you mean by Explore Directory

How to open multi-windows to operate a remote compute using socket

hi, please help me.
I want to develop a program, it can open multi-windows to operate the remote comput at one time just like NetTerm. It use socket to setup connection with remote computer.
Now I am using a Thread class to setup socket connection with computer, and use Thread's static varible to control all kinds of action of socket.But it can work only when openning one window,because all the thread instances share the same static variable.
How to do it? Not using Thread? Then the frame will be frozen.
All adivse are welcomed.Thank you.

Maybe I don't say it clearly.The program need to show the output of the socket in the JTextArea and transfer the user input to the input of the socket to control the remote computer.

Edit multi-window tab

How can I add additional apps to my multi-window tab. (In addition to those available on the expanded edit tab)

coachk23,
I love the multi window feature on the Samsung's devices! The good news is that the feature is still available. You can enable the feature by tapping and holding the back key on your phone for a few seconds. You can also drag down your notification bar, tap the boxes in the top right corner and select Multi Window to enable. Let us know if you still need any assistance!

Multi window feature has gone

I updated the firefox mobile for Android and as a consequence firefox icon was removed from my galaxy note 2 multi window tray. Is there any method to get this feature back? If not can I reinstall a firefox version that supports this feature?
Note: I've already tried Firefox 21.0 BETA version. There is no change.

I've just found out that the developers have removed this because an user reported some icons that appear on screen can block some pixels if application. However, that is ridiculous to remove it. If so , the user must turn multi window feature off. There was no need to remove it.

Multi window apps

Isn't there a way to include other apps as part of the multi window menu?. It would be nice to refer to my calendar while in another window

Yes, the calendar should be available.
For clarity, my response should have said: "Tap the Edit button and you should get another window open on the right-hand side of the screen listing the apps that are available in multi-window".

Multi Window AIR Application - How to Call

Hi All,
I am new to Adobe AIR so please forgive my ignorance. I want
to create a multi-window air flex application. The scenario is like
I have a window with menu options. When user selects a menu option,
I have to open another window with corresponding application in it.
I have created two applications inside a flex project. Each
application has <mx:WindowedApplication> as its root
component. My question is how to call the 2nd application from the
1st one? I tried SWFLoader but does not seem to work. Any help is
creatly appreciated.

You only want a single WindowedApplication component in an
AIR application. For the other windows, use the Window component.
You can then create this window object in response to the user's
menu selection. See
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/launching_windows.html
for examples of opening windows.
