Reorder items in an accordion

Hello,
Is there a way to reorder the items in an accordeon? When I try to move the item in the layer panel, nothing happens.
Also I want to insert an item in the middle of the accordion. Thaty also doesn't work.
Can someone tell me hou to do this?
Best regards,
Tjaard

Hello,
Issue issolved. I discovered that you can move items down so the last item added will move up. It not an ideal way of working but it works.
Best regards,

Can you reorder items in the reading list?

Simple question
Can you reorder items that are saved in your Safari Reading list? For example, move some items to the top or rearrange them so the ones on the same topic or from the same website are next to each other? I would think this would be something simple to do but I cant seem to do it. I just see how you can show the ones youve read (which usually just means youve clicked on them) but had no luck when trying to drag to rearrange them

Yes you can with a little forethought. Select from the Reading List the page you want at the top. You will now see this as the usual Safari view. Use the normal procedure for adding a new page to the Reading List. The desired page will now be at the top. Try this for one item. You can then organise on paper the order you want remembering that the most recent action will appear at the top. Longwinded but it works.

When reorder item's position, arabic labels changes into ??

Hi there,
I hope u can help me with this issue:
After re-ordering the positions of items (texts or check boxes) the Arabic labels of them changed into question marks,
who possibly can I prevent this to happen!!, so that each time I reorder items with Arabic labels they remain Arabic,
is it a problem of encoding?? if how shall I solve it !
As it is not convenient to re-edit the label each time the position has changed!
any suggestions please! , help is appreciated

Hello,
I was able to reconstruct your scenario, both on my local instance and on apex.oracle.com.
It seems like a bug in the drag&drop mechanism. It’s not only for Arabic, as I got the same result for Hebrew and Russian also.
For now, it seems that the only way to avoid this is not to use the drag&drop feature. If you need to change the layout of the items, you should do it manually, through the editing page of the item.

Arie.

JList drag and drop to reorder items

I like to see a implementation of a JList supporting drag and drop to reorder items. The solution has to work with any object type in the datamodel.

import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import javax.swing.DefaultListModel;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JList;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
public class ReorderList {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
         @Override
         public void run() {
            new ReorderList().makeUI();
   public void makeUI() {
      Object[] data = {"One", "Two", "Three", "Four", "Five",
         "Six", "Seven", "Eight", "Nine", "Ten", "Eleven", "Twelve"
      DefaultListModel model = new DefaultListModel();
      for (Object object : data) {
         model.addElement(object);
      JList list = new JList(model);
      MouseAdapter listener = new ReorderListener(list);
      list.addMouseListener(listener);
      list.addMouseMotionListener(listener);
      JFrame frame = new JFrame();
      frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
      frame.setSize(200, 200);
      frame.add(new JScrollPane(list));
      frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
      frame.setVisible(true);
class ReorderListener extends MouseAdapter {
   private JList list;
   private int pressIndex = 0;
   private int releaseIndex = 0;
   public ReorderListener(JList list) {
      if (!(list.getModel() instanceof DefaultListModel)) {
         throw new IllegalArgumentException("List must have a DefaultListModel");
      this.list = list;
   @Override
   public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
      pressIndex = list.locationToIndex(e.getPoint());
   @Override
   public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
      releaseIndex = list.locationToIndex(e.getPoint());
      if (releaseIndex != pressIndex && releaseIndex != -1) {
         reorder();
   @Override
   public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {

Reorder items in JTree using drag-and-drop

Title says it all: before I start re-inventing the wheel, any code out there?
Think of the code that I need as an outliner.

Did you ever find a solution to this. I'm looking to implement a similar interface using a JList where the user can reorder drawing layers by dragging and dropping.
I'm temped to use a scrollpane and roll my own drag reorder code, so any supported behaviors would be welcome.
thanks,
Steven

As Reorder items in Query Panel?

Good night,
use 12c jdeveloper and would like to know how I can sort the items in a query panel.
for example: I have the fields in the View Criterial, "id, name, age, gender, telephone", the latter field is a ViewLink to another entity "telefonoView" and want to show in the query panel in the following order:
* id
* name
* gender
* Phone
* age
thank you very much in advance.

Hi,
another option that I did not ty before posting this answer is to define the order in the UI hints of the attributes. You can set a display index (1 ... n) for where fields should render

I solve this problem today,,..is very vell documented...
When you repeat acordion or tab or other wiget, you need have
in repeat div also constructor of that object..
Try this code...look at last div..
change your include paths.

ADF Faces - Panel Accordion rendering issue

Hi, I am trying to follow this tutorial about adf faces:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18941_01/tutorials/jdtut_11r2_55/jdtut_11r2_55_2.html
but when I click on the detail items in the accordion component, the objects inside desappears and I could see a strange rendering behavior with the rest of the objects.
No errors are shown in the console. I tested it in chrome, ie8 and firefox with the same result.
Software used: jdeveloper 11.1.1.6.0, weblogic 11gR1 on win7.
Any ideas?

You are aware that the sample is for jdev 11.1.2.x, so this may well be the reason why you see this behavior.

Dynamic accordion with dynamic datagrid

I’m trying to create a dynamic accordion with embedded
datagrids in each accordion area. I have the base working but have
2 problems I can’t seem to figure out.
Bases; the accordion uses a repeater and vbox with a custom
component from a webservice result set to create the accordion. The
custom component has another webservice that gets a value from the
repeater to pass it to the custom component.
My 2 problems:
1. how do I prevent the custom component from running the
webservice until the accordion item is clicked or the area is
visible? Otherwise I end up will a bunch of queries hitting the DB
and if there is several items for the accordion and many items from
the datagrid its slower.
2. how can I get the datagrid query to refresh when the
accordion item is clicked? Because the data may change I am not
able to see the updated data unless I reload the entire
application.
1 thing I did try. With the tab control you can use the
show() event and the data will refresh just fine, but with the
accordion, the show() event does not seem to fire. Its as if they
are all visible.
Any help here would be much appreciated, I’ve been
racking my brain for days now and I sure it is something simple
that I am missing. Thanks in advance.

Perhaps you could use the change event of the accordion, or
the show event of the child containers?

Problem with Accordion Widget INSIDE Sliding Panel Widget

Hello,
perhaps I should not do this, but I nested an Accordion
Widget inside a Sliding Panels Widget:
- There are eight Panels.
- Each one contains a complete Accordion.
The sliding works fine, and so does the Accordion animation,
but the text inside the Accordion Panel Tabs won't move along, when
a tab is activated. I need to hover the mouse over the accordion to
make the panel texts appear again.
Of course, when I un-nest the widgets and move the Accordion
widget out of the Sliding Panel widget, everything is fine.
My question is:
- am I demanding "too much" by nesting the widgets?
- or should this basically work, and the problem arises from
rivalling scripts?
Here is a link:
Nested
widgets Test
The horizontal top menu will activate the sliding panels, but
as of now only the leftmost menu item contains an Accordion (I know
the CSS does not look nice yet).
Is there anything I can optimise to get this to work?
Thank you so much,
Greetings, Jensen
Edit: The problem does NOT occur in Firefox, but in
Safari.

Hi John,
That is the expected behavior if the "Overlap items below" is unchecked. Please refer to the following link http://screencasteu.worldsecuresystems.com/aish/2013-08-21_1947.png. If you don't want the page to wiggle up and down, please check the box shown in the screenshot.

Accordion menu widget behavior and contents

I'm working on an accordion menu that is then used in a DPS folio created in InDesign.
The accordion menu resides on the Master Pages of the articles/documents, 6 articles total.
When the label is tapped, the accordion menu expands open >
The label is also a link that takes the reader to a page within the folio while expanding (using the navto://documentname#page formatting) >
Inside the content area of each label are subtopics that also navigate to different pages within the folio (also using the navto://documentname#page formatting).
My desire is that when a label is tapped and expands, the reader can then click on each subtopic and go to that page without the accordion menu collapsing as it goes to the page.
I'm finding that 99.9% of the time, the menu is collapsing. Other times I get the exact performance I desire.
I'm Ok with the menu collapsing as each label is tapped, but not the subtopics.
I've played around with setting the accordion properties by unchecking "Collapse All" and unchecking "Edit Together", but can't seem to edit these sections or the text boxes individually. It either sets ALL items in the accordion menu to Collapse All or not. No mixing of the two settings.
Is there a way to get the desired functionality, outlined above, with the accordion menu widget?
TIA,
Hunter

You can either use separate accordions for sub topic or you would need to go with unchecked collapse all and then manually edit all contents.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Odd Accordion Behaviour

I have a dynamically populated accordion in my application, and I'm experiencing some very unusual behavior.
Background: I have a User object, and this object contains an array of lecture object. For each lecture, I add a box to my accordion, and the box contains information about the lecture, along with a Play and Stop button.
The problem is when I select any item other than the first one. I select the item, and the accordion expands properly. When I press the PLAY button, the recorded lecture plays (in an iFrame), but then the accordion moves to have the first one (selectedIndex = 0) selected! It does this every time, and I cannot find out what the problem is.
Does anyone have any ideas what could be causing this? I have included the main parts of code below.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve,
I'll have to get back to you on this one when I have access
to a Mac (tomorrow).
This seems to work fine in Firefox 1.5.0.4 and IE on the PC.
I'm surprised to hear that it would work differently on Mac
Firefox.

Potential Accordion Bug

I have an accordion control in my flex app and I am
experiencing problems with a checkbox in one of the accordion
items.
I have written some actionscript to dynamically add items to
the accordion control. I forget the terminology, but I have a
'template' document which specifies the contents of each item in
the accordion. Each item has a label control and a checkbox
control. When I check a checkbox in one of the accordion items and
scroll down so the item is not in view, then scroll back up to the
item, the checkbox is displayed as unchecked! Has anyone come
across this behaviour before?
Thanks,
Alan

Post an example.

ForEach in Accordion

Hi all,
In the component
<af:panelAccordion >
<af:forEach var="item" step="1"
items="#{bean.specis}">
<af:showDetailItem text="#{item}">
<af:panelGroupLayout halign="left" valign="top"
inlineStyle="width:100%; height:100%;">
<af:outputText value="#{bean.param}"/>
</af:panelGroupLayout>
</af:showDetailItem>
</af:forEach>
</af:panelAccordion>
instead <af:outputText value="#{bean.param}"/> I want to use component based on query which uses #{item} as a query parameter, but I cannot access the value in baked bean. In Jdeveloper 10 I used something like this:
… getParam(){
FacesContext fctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ValueBinding vbinding = fctx.getApplication().createValueBinding("#{item}");
return vbinding.getValue(fctx);
or
JSFUtils.resolveExpression
The value returned is always null (bean.param). Does anybody know a code example which retrieves the value of current item of an accordion in a baking bean?
of couse I can access it in disclosureListener event but for some reasons I am looking to access it in another place.

Is there a way to give orientation to a Accordion?

Hi,
is there a way to give a vertical orientation to the Accordion. I could not find a method like setOrientation or setStyle? Its much nicer if the TitledPane appear from left to right then from top to down.
Thanks for your help.

Hi,
sorry for unclear descripition. This is the very simple code snippet
    SplitPane Content = new SplitPane();
    Content.getItems().add(createTableView());
    Content.getItems().add(createDetails());
    ArtikelTexte = new TitledPane("Artikel Texte", createArtikelTexte());
    TexteDetail = new TitledPane("Texte Detail", createTexteDetail());
    Accordion accordion = new Accordion();
    accordion.getPanes().add(ArtikelTexte);
    accordion.getPanes().add(TexteDetail);
    Content.getItems().add(accordion);
    Content.setDividerPosition(0, 0.33f);
    Content.setDividerPosition(1, 0.66f);So its a SplitPane with 3 items. The last item is a accordion with 2 items. In the accordion the TiteldPanes appear as Title one below the other on top of the SplitPane item.
When you press on that tiny arrow it opens. The TitledPane expand from top to down.
Now what i am looking for is. The Titel should appear in the left area one beside the other in that SplitPane item. And they should expand from left to right.
Hope this makes it clear. Thank you!
