Sorting JTable using keyboard

Hi all,
Is it possible to sort JTable using keyboard? There is a key to get the focus to a column header by clicking the key F8. I don't find any key to sort the table based on the column which is in focus. Is there any solution for this?
Thanks,
Ganesh

You miss the point of that link, there is no need to write any custom code.
I have already tried to implement Keyboard listener of JTableHeader which must be similar to using Key Bindings.You should NOT use a KeyListener, Swing was designed to use KeyBindings
The problem I am facing is that I am unable to find the column which got the key strokeYou don't have to write any code, the functionality you want is already supported with a Key Binding. Just use the "space" key.
If you don't like the space key, then you can assign the Action to any other KeyStroke. The link shows you how to do that in 3-4 lines of code.

Sorting JTable using TableSorter

I am using Sun's implementation of TableSorter to sort a JTable. How to modify the TableSorter to implement descending order sorting without holding the shift key. Any sample source is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Is it necessary to use TableSorter? If your data model is implemented as a Collection (more specifically, as a List), you could just use Collections.sort() and Collections.reverse(). You can keep a boolean flag to indicate which direction the sorting was done previously - based on the state of that flag, you can decide which direction to sort the next time. Sorry, I don't have a code snippet at the mo.

Select non-consecutive files using keyboard

Hi - I am trying to select several files in Finder using keyboard only. Sort of thing you would do with the CTRL key in Windows. I want to select several songs to open in my iTunes, but not all of them. And the songs are not listed one after another. I don't want to use the mousepad as it tends to open one of the selected file if I press the mousepad a tad too long. I just want to quickly scroll with arrow keys and mark the ones I want to select with another key. How can this not be possible on OS X?

Thanks, it's just not helpful. Sometimes you happen to accidentally double-click, epsecially when you are selecting a large number of files. The problem here was that I was trying to select songs from my folder to open in iTunes so that I would transfer them to my iPhone afterwards in one go. The moment I would accidentally double-click wth the trackpad, the entire selection that I had made would open in iTunes and start playing, which meant that I would have to switch to iTunes and press pause. I did not want to put the computer on silence because I had some other music playing on YouTube at the same time. Overall, it's a disturbance. If someone at Apple were smarter, they would have allowed for a simle selection of non-consecutive files by keyboard, as Windows does it. Scrolling and selecting with the trackpad is not very convenient in this case, because you have to use the trackpad and the keyboard (CMD) at the same time. In a situation like this, a user should be able to perform this operation with keyboard only, simply because it is more convenient that way. If Windows with its operating system has been allowing to do this for ages, Apple with its ambition to be smarter and easier than PC should have been able to tackle this problem long time ago.

Using Keyboard keys in Fields setting in Crystal Report Design ?

Hi Experts
I want to know that how can I change text object or a field size or position by keyboard. sometimes it works and sometimes not. What is the setting for using keyboard.
Thanks

Keyboard keys will only work under certain modes in CR. You have to check the mode constantly to see in which ways they work. There are too many conditions may cause them not work. That list could be too long to find them all. You would have a good grasp on the rule after you familiar with them.

My keyboard on macbook pro (laptop) is acting weird. One key is not responding at all. Have verified using Keyboard viewer and some other keys are printing the unresponsive character at random.

Is it a damaged keyboard ?
The laptop is just 2 months old, will Apple replace it with a new one if its indeed a damaged keyboard or just repair, I use it for official purposes so being without a laptop is not much of an option.

No one here works for Apple, so we don't know what Apple might or might not do. If it's a genuine defect, they will of course repair it under warranty. It is not their responsibility if it effects your ability to work or not, so that's on you.
If, however, they determine that the key is problematic as a result of your misuse of the laptop, then everything is on you. And trust me, if they find a glob of dried up beer or coffee there, they will charge you.
Your only choice is to take it in for repair.

I am Unable to Type or use Keyboard in Firefox 18.0 anywhere including URL bar and Search Bar. how should rectify this?

I am unable to type anything or use keyboard to type in Firefox. I am using Firefox 18.0 installed on Windows 7.
I am able to Paste into the URL bar and also the Search bar but absolutely not able to type in it.
I have already tried the "reset" option but still unable to type.
Also tried Firefox in safe mode with disabled addons but still unable to type.
Installed a fresh copy of firefox after uninstalling Firefox and deleting the old folder "Mozilla Firefox" from windows. but still unable to type.
Please tell me a solution to this.

I'm not on a laptop so I don't have a FN key. But on my desktop F9 + Windows key appears to have resolved the issue for me. Thanks for the help!

Why is it so hard to just use Keyboard controls to navigate Finder?

In pre OS X days I and my co-workers would use only keyboard shortcuts to navigate file servers faster than the network could even refresh the display just using Command keys and Tab and letters…
In Finder if I want to move to the shortcuts side-bar (the way you can in an Open dialogue box with Tab) it seems to require cursor action, and since I use a tablet that means moving RH away from keyboard and gripping pen, which we all seem to hold between thumb and palm.
If I hit Tab with a Finder window active, I get the current directory of files and I can manually move thorugh Cmd-Sft-D for desktop and then drill down etc etc I also find it can be really hard to make a window or floating pallete the active window, and even when it is, impossible to highlight the correct field/content just using Keyboard shortcuts. I'm finding hard to beleive I not missing something, this being Apples OS and Apple have had unviersal access for a few decades!

Hmmm, if these are commonly used Folders, try dagging them to the right side of the Dock between Applications & trash.

How do I highlight and copy material from one document to another by using keyboard commands? The tool bar is not appearing as it typically does.

How do I copy material from one document to the next by using keyboard commands. I am copying from Word into and external database and the external system seems to be covering my tool bar from which I would typically click editing shortcut commands.

Highlight what you want to copy, then command - C. To paste, select where you want it to go, then command - V.

Query on sorting XML using XSLT and getting the same XML as output !

Hi,
Looking for one information regarding sorting XML using XSLT , with the sorted XML as output. For eg. my XML is :
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="sort1.xsl"?>
<levelone>
     <child ID="1" sort="5">
          <name>Paul</name>
     </child>
     <child ID="2" sort="1">
          <name>Adam</name>
     </child>
     <child ID="3" sort="2">
          <name>Will</name>
     </child>
</levelone>
and XSL :
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/levelone">
     <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:apply-templates>
          <xsl:sort select="@sort"/>
     </xsl:apply-templates>
          </xsl:copy>
     </xsl:template>
     <xsl:template match="child">
          <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
     </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
This does the sort based on Name. But I want to get the same xml as output with the name sorted. Eg.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="sort1.xsl"?>
<levelone>
     <child ID="2" sort="1">
          <name>Adam</name>
     </child>
     <child ID="1" sort="5">
          <name>Paul</name>
     </child>
     <child ID="3" sort="2">
          <name>Will</name>
     </child>
</levelone>
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
- Thanks

Don't you want <xsl:sort select="name"/> rather than <xsl:sort select="@sort"/>?
