Tab between cells and celleditor in JTable

I placed a cell editor in a JTable column JTextField.
After I type something in this editor and press tab it stays in the same cell and when I press tab again then it goes to the next column.
How can I correct this so that After I type something in the cell and press tab I want it to go to the next column directly in JTable.
Thanks.

I'd have to see your code to tell you what's wrong. I tried it this way and had no problem.
TableColumn tc = table.getColumnModel().getColumn(2);
tc.setCellEditor(new DefaultCellEditor(new JTextField()));by the way, I don't think you need to explicitly set the cell editor component to JTextField. It uses that by default.

I can no longer tab between cells in a table with pages 5.0.

I use pages everyday for filling in my work booking sheets. I need to have them synching to the cloud, so I can access the client information while on the road.
My booking sheet is basically a large table with many cells for name, address, phone number, etc. In pages 4.3 I could enter some information into the cell, hit the tab button, and it would go straight to the next cell in the table. This was a quick and easy way for me to fill out my forms on the computer.
Well, since the update, the tab button only moves the cursor over in the same cell, as opposed to the next cell. It is VERY rare to need to tab in a cell, as opposed to going to the next cell.
I did figure out that I could Option+ Tab to move to the next cell, but it is very hard to change my procedure of tabbing after all this timing doing it the other way.
Am I just missing a preferance to tab between cells, instead of inside a cell?
Thanks
Dave

Option-tab makes sense and can be done with the left hand's thumb/forefinger.
Using tab was always arse-backwards as it defeated the use of tab within the table cell.
Best to use both for what they always do:
Option tab or an arrow key (singular) to jump cells
tab to jump to the next tab in the text wherever it is within or without cells.
The contrary precedence was set by Microsoft and was a bad idea. In good UI you do not have shortucts reverse roles such that you need to pay excessive attention to the context.

Command-tab between Safari and another application

When I command-tab between Safari and another application such as Word, when I return to Safari I am on a different web page. When I use History to return to the page I want, I have to sign back in again. How can I fix this?

It's CS4 6.0.3 on OSX.
The other application is a web app in development.
My guess now is Flash compiles the fonts and it sees Antihistory regular as Antihistory book and our website is expecting regular.

InputVerifier and CellEditor - verifying JTable data

I'm trying to verify the data in the cells of a JTable. I want to use an InputVerifier on the Component (JTextField in this case) which is in the CellEditor, so that when the user tabs through the JTable, I can stop the focus xfer when a value fails validation, and pop up an error message.
The AbstractTableModel for my JTable contains all the information I need to validate various columns. It knows the types of data, valid ranges, etc.
The problem I'm having is that I can't figure out a way for the CellEditor to know which column it's current cell lives in. I could assign each column it's own editor and pass the column information to the CellEditor at contruction time, but I would prefer to have a generic editor that will work for all the columns(JTable.setDefaultEditor).
Is there a way for a CellEditor to detect which cell it is currently editing?
Thanks.

Hmmm that might work. I was looking for a way for the CellEditor itself to detect which cell it is editing. I guess if I gave the CellEditor a handle to the JTable it resides on, then it could ask the JTable which cell it is editing. Seems weird the CellEditor would need to ask the JTable, 'Hey what is it Im doing exactly?' but oh well.
I'll give it a try. Thanks again.

ICloud not synchronizing tabs between MacBook and iPhone

Okay so first off, hello! And let me start by saying that I found a topic about this from September last year. This did, however, not help me at all. Anyway so, apparently my tabs is not synchronizing between my iPhone 5 and MacBook Pro anymore. The last time it synchronized was six days ago on the 20th, and I know that because there's a tab I can open on my computer that takes me to a topic that was written that exact day and has date and time stamp. I noticed, however, that a tab I opened this morning on my iPad HAS synchronized with my iPhone... So I really haven't got a single clue what is going on but I am getting extremely annoyed that it hasn't synchronized for a week now!
And no, private browsing is NOT enabled on my phone OR my computer, so that's definitely not it. I've never had it enabled anyway, but yes I have checked just to be sure, and it's disabled. So I really don't know what is going on, and I'd really like to have this fixed. Again, a tab i opened on my iPad this morning has synchronized with my phone and not with my computer. So I'm guessing it's my computer there's something wrong with?
If anyone could help, I'd be very happy!
Thanks,
Maya

Make sure all your iOS devices and your Mac are signed into the same iCloud account, and that your iOS devices have Safari set to On in Settings>iCloud, and that your Mac has Safari checked in System Preferences>iCloud. If your settings are correct and open tabs in Safari on your Mac are not listed in iCloud tabs on your iOS devices (and vice versa), go to System Preferences>iCloud, uncheck Safari, restart your Mac, wait a minute or so, then recheck Safari. See if this resolves things.

Task switching (APPLE+TAB) between apps and spotlight window not possible

Hi, I opened a spotlight window to search for some items by pressing ALTCMDSpace and ran my search query. Then I task switched to my other app to look at some info, but when I tried to task switch back to the open Spotlight window I was unable to do so. The only way to get back to it was either to Exposé or to press ALTCMDSpace again. Not a natural flow to the way I and most other people probably work. Is this normal/a feature? I am sure it wouldn't be hard for Apple to add the hook to show the Spotlight window in the Task List (CMD+TAB)

Hi, John.
Unfortunately, that's the way it works: You cannot Command-Tab to the Spotlight window. I see this as a design glitch, aka a "feature." As you note, it can be found using the Exposé "All Windows" (F9) function.
To let Apple know how you feel about this, I suggest you submit a Mac OS X Feedback. All Feedbacks are read and used to prioritize development investments.
Good luck!

Association between Jcheckboxes and lines of JTable

Hello everybody,
I would like to add a JChekBox to each line of my JTable knowing that the number of lines is given only at the time of the execution. The problem is that the contructor of JscrollPane can take only one JComponent in parameters:
JScrollPane scrollpane=new JScrollPane(MyJTable);
How can I make association line-JChekBox dynamically.
I m waiting for your answers impatiently.
Thank you for being attentive

I don't understand your question. You where given a link to the JTable tutorial, that showed you how to add check boxes to the table.
This is done by adding Boolean values to the TableModel. So once you know the number of rows in the table you create a simple loop and do:
table.setValueAt(row, new Boolean(true) );

V 31. installed would not connect to internet, restored to 30, now the pinned tabs due not persist between starting and closing FF.

Installed version 31.0 from version 30.0. It would not display any web pages, e.g. google, had a message about not being able to connect. Did a Windows system restore point to version 30 (I had created a restore point before the install) . FF will now not save pinned tabs between sessions and it will not restore the last page from a previous session. All it will display is the Default FF page.
Can someone give me some idea's about how to fix this. I tried reinstalling version 30 but that did not work to fix the problem.
Greg

Hi,
First, thanks for everyone responding. Here is what the problem was....
For some reason, there is a profile under Local in Mozilla and another profile under Roam. The Roam profile was the one that was being pointed to from the Troubleshooting tab under help. The local profile only had some partial files not including sessionstore.js. I copied all the files from the Roam profile to the Local profile. This restored the pinned tabs but not the open tabs from the previous session. I then updated Roam and Local profiles with the last sessionstore I could find in the Roam directory.... for some crazy reason this restored everything. Updating to FF v 31 was what initially caused this.
I did create a restore point before the update, which would not connect any tabs to the internet (e.g. Google). I then restored from the restore point, and ended up with the damaged FF v30 installation, which would connect to the internet but would not pin tabs and remember them or display the last page I had visited as a start page....
So, I hope someone gets a chance to look at FF v31, and why there is a Roam and Local directory with profiles in them ?
Thanks

Tab key selects cell for edit in JTable

Hello,
I've seen extensive posts on this forum for this problem, but no solution yet.
I have a Jtable, with custom cellRenders and cellEditors. Some columns are editable, some are not.
What I want to do, is when someone tabs to an editable cell, that cell immediately goes into edit mode. This means, it acts as if someone double clicked on it, or tabbed then clicked on it. Basically, I want it to ACTUALLY go into edit mode.
Please do not respond by telling me how to make it look editable (highlighting, etc) and do not respond with mouseEvent solutions. Please do not respond by telling me to do table.editCellAt(row,col) because that does not kick in my custom editor, it uses the defaultCellEditor.
So basic question:
How to kick in editing when someone tabs to an editable cell?
If you need code examples, please request and I will post.

nmstaat,
In JTable:
Look into the processKeyBinding method. It takes a keyevent and matchs it with an InputMap, and the InputMap invokes an Action in the corresponding ActionMap.
You will have to call yourJTable.getActionMap(), then alter the action that corresponds to the 'tab' key.
For Further information, check the JTable API, its all there.
Good Luck,
Alex

How do you set defaults in pages such as font and moving between cells in a table?

How do you set defaults in Pages such as font and moving between cells in a table?

Default layout and styles can be set by setting up a sheet with your settings and saving as a user template (File > Save As Template). I don't know of a way to set defaults for moving between cells in a table.

I need to convert PDF to Excel, however, columns and tabs make many merged cells and many blank columns. In addition to not separate the columns correctly, I see many not separate lines together in the same cell. I'm even thinking that Adobe Acrobat Pro DC has limitations. There is no way to define what points in columns to force break column? Nor create many columns that are useless? How does text to column in Excel, fixed size when we import text, and define where the breaks have columns?

PDF does not contain columns, rows, formats, styles, or other aspects of word processing or spreadsheet file formats.
This is because PDF is decidedly not a word processing or spreadsheet file format or something "like" one of those.
(see ISO 32000 for what PDF "is")
What can optimize the export of PDF page content is to start with a well-formed tagged PDF (ISO 14289-1, PDF/UA-1 compliant).
Without that export is what it is and one performs whatever content cleanup is needed using the native application for the export file (MS Word or Excel).
Be well...

When alt + tab between applications firefox freezes to a black blank screen and will not move. The only response it will allow is the close option after right clicking on the task bar in English

I normally have several applications running at the same time, some of them are running 24/7/365.
When accessing the applications its easier to alt+tab between them. On the occasions that I can actually get Firefox to open and stay open it always freezes and remains immovable on the screen after switching to another program.
Firefox goes black except for the border and the close button at the top right. The other buttons disappear. Even after waiting for a period of time it does not clear.
The freeze can occur either on the first switch or second switch. However, it always happens.

Have also since found out that to start FF4 in safe mode you just hold shift whilst double-clicking the icon. We only find these things out after the event, murphy's law!

Switching between Design and JSP tabs add code?

I am new to SJSC and I am taking the time to go through all of the little odds & ends of the IDE.
I was looking at:
http://blogs.sun.com/roller/page/tor?entry=computing_html_on_the_fly
And I decided to try this.
When I add the following in the JSP tab:
<h:outputText binding="#{Page1.tableHtml}" id="outputText1"/>Save.
Then click on the Design tab, then go back to the JSP tab, I now have:
<h:outputText binding="#{Page1.tableHtml}" id="outputText1"/>
<h:outputText binding="#{Page1.outputText1}" id="outputText1"/>It's late here, but this doesn't make any sense, why would switching between Design and JSP tabs add code?
Thanks,
--Todd
