URGENT!!! How to set focus to a required cell in JTable with ENTER

Hello everybody,
I want to change the focus to the cell(identified by row, column) while pressing ENTER. Pleas help me on this issue.

Hello Venkatesh. Yes that code does work. First I tried it on a table cell that was already rendered and it did work. The next time I tried it on a table row that was being added and it did not work there. So I added an on after rendering function for the table and added that code there. That did not work until I added a delay (timeout) to do a context switch before calling the focus and that worked.
Once last thing though sometimes when I call focus on an input field (actually in a table row cell) if the field has text in it already the flashing cursor is at the beginning of the text and other times it is at the end of the text (which is the desired way). It depends on where I click in the row. Is there anyway to make sure the flashing cursor is at the end of the text when the focus is applied to a field that contains text?

  • Setting Focus to a particular cell in JTable

    Hi, can i know how to set the focus to a particular cell in JTable.
    Say I have a table with 2 rows and 10 columns. The focus now is at position (1, 9) which is the last cell in the table. But I want to set the focus to (1, 3). How can i achieve this ? Pls help. Thanks

    OK. It's partially working. The right methods to use are setRowSelectionInterval and setColumnSelectionInterval. Jeanette was right. Mine didn't work because of a thread issue. I put the those two methods in a block such as:
    SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
    public void run()
    table.setRowSelectionInterval(tblLineItem.getRowCount()-1,
    table.getRowCount()-1);
    table.setColumnSelectionInterval(0,0);
    Then it worked.
    But after I finished editing the first cell of the newly created row and press ENTER, the selection went back to the cell that's next to the originally editing cell on the first(old) row, instead of staying at the current row and going to the second cell.
    Can anybody shed a light on what I'm missing?

  • How to set focus to a invalid cell in setValue method of  custom TableModel

    I am using a Jtable with an AbstractTableModel. In the setValueAt()
    method I do validation of the data entered. If the data is invalid, I
    show a dialog box with the error message. The focus goes to the next
    cell or wherever it is tabbed out/clicked on. How can I get the
    focusto stay in the invalid data cell ?

    Thank you all for the help! Definitely extending the DefaultCellEditor is one way.
    I am wondering anything can be done from within the setValueAt method, Here is a code snippet i am using for doing validation inside my table model.
    public void setValueAt(Object value, int row, int col)
    EmployeeDetail empDtls = (EmployeeDetail(empList.elementAt(row));
                   switch(col){
                   case SSN_COL :
                        if(!GenericValidator.isLong((String)value)){
                        TaxUtil.HAS_ERROR = true;
                        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "SSN should be numeric only", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                        return;
                        if(!GenericValidator.maxLength((String)value,SSN_LEN)){
                        TaxUtil.HAS_ERROR = true;
                        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "SSN should be of maximum 9 digits only", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                        return;
                        empDtls.setSSN((String)value);
                        break;
                   case FNAME_COL :
                        if(!GenericValidator.maxLength((String)value,FIRST_NAME_LEN)){
                        TaxUtil.HAS_ERROR = true;
                        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "First Name should be of maximum 10 characters only", "Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);

    Hallo Praveen,
    have you controlled that id of the Linktoaction ? there you made error.
    See it in the ViewElement designer .
    should be something like this
    lr_elem = view->get_element( 'LTA_name ' ).

  • I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either.

    I have an airport express and want to know how to set up two different wireless networks. One with 5GHZ and one with 2.4GHZ so different devices can connect to either. I have an iphone 4 that will not connect to 5ghz.
    thank you!

    Your AirPort Express is already providing two separate 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, but each band is using the same wireless network name.
    This is the default setup for the AirPort Express, which is recommended for most users. The theory here is that devices will automatically connect to the best quality signal based on their capabilities and distance in relation to the AirPort Express.
    It is possible to assign a different name to the 5 GHz band, and then "point" devices at that network to connect. Some users swear by this option.....(I am not one of them).... but you might want to give it a try to see how it works for you.
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
    Click on the AirPort Express
    Click Edit in the smaller window that appears
    Click the Wireless tab at the top of the next window
    Click Wireless Options near the bottom of the next window
    Enter a check mark next to 5 GHz Name.....which will automatically add "5 GHz" to the network name....so you can identify it
    Click Save, then click Update and wait a full minute for the Express to restart
    Now you will need to "point" your 5 GHz capable devices at the 5 GHz network name.  2.4 GHz devices will connect to your "other" network name.

  • How to set focus and mark red on certain select option field

    hi experts
    I embedded a select_option view in my application and  tried to use IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS->request_focus to set focus on a certain select option field if the logical check failed, and also hope the low field of the select option can be marked red....but things does not happen that way....
    could anyone kindly tell me how to implement that requirement?
    tkx and regards
    sun

    What is the problem you are facing in this ?
    Requesting focus is easy.
    just call the method request focus and pass the id of the parameter whose lower value field you want to focus.
    as shown below.
    code you might have written in wddoinit
    DATA: LT_RANGE_TABLE TYPE REF TO DATA,
            RT_RANGE_TABLE TYPE REF TO DATA,
            READ_ONLY TYPE ABAP_BOOL,
            TYPENAME TYPE STRING.
        DATA: LR_COMPONENTCONTROLLER TYPE REF TO IG_COMPONENTCONTROLLER,
            L_REF_CMP_USAGE TYPE REF TO IF_WD_COMPONENT_USAGE.
    *   * create the used component
      L_REF_CMP_USAGE = WD_THIS->WD_CPUSE_SELECT_OPTIONS( ).
      IF L_REF_CMP_USAGE->HAS_ACTIVE_COMPONENT( ) IS INITIAL.
        L_REF_CMP_USAGE->CREATE_COMPONENT( ).
      ENDIF.
        WD_THIS->M_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS = WD_THIS->WD_CPIFC_SELECT_OPTIONS( ).
        WD_THIS->M_HANDLER = WD_THIS->M_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS->INIT_SELECTION_SCREEN( ).
    LT_RANGE_TABLE = WD_THIS->M_HANDLER->CREATE_RANGE_TABLE( I_TYPENAME = 'ZDEALERID' ).
    * * add a new field to the selection
      WD_THIS->M_HANDLER->ADD_SELECTION_FIELD( I_ID = 'ID'
      IT_RESULT = LT_RANGE_TABLE I_READ_ONLY = READ_ONLY ).
    code for focusing a field.
    wd_this->m_handler->request_focus( i_id = 'ID' ).
    you must have declared attributes m_handler and m_wd_select_options type reffering to IF_WD_SELECT_OPTIONS and
    IWCI_WDR_SELECT_OPTIONS respectively.
    and regarding that red color i am not sure it is possible without using message manager.
    thanks

  • How to set focus on invisible input field?

    Hi Guys,
    I need an invisible input field and have to set an input focus on it. My problem is that if I set input field’s property visible=blank, I get my invisible field <b>BUT</b> the function call doesn’t work (setInput.requestFocus()).
    I suppose that I can’t set a focus if an input field is invisible.
    Does somebody know how can I solve my problem? Is there a possibility to do this input field invisible with java script? If yes, how does it work in Web Dynpro?
    Thanks
    Marita

    Hi
      Setting a focus on invisible input field will not work even if you follow the method what sowjanya has suggested. The method wdThis.wdGetAPI().requestFocus() will not work for read-only and disabled fields.
    By the way why do you want to set the focus on a invisible input field. If you can tell us the requirement maybe we could think of an alternate solution. But i guess for the current scenario setting focus on invisible input field does not work.
    regards
