Comment on Overlap Layout by Mr. NO

I cannot get the panel to show unless I add it to a JScrollPane before I add it to the frame. How come? What am I missing?

OverlapLayout layout = new OverlapLayout(new Point(20, 0)); layout.setPopupInsets(new Insets(20, 0, 0, 0)); JPanel panel = new JPanel( layout ); panel.add(card1); panel.add(card2); ... JFrame frame = new JFrame("Card game"); frame.add(new JScrollPane(panel)); //Works frame.add(panel); //Does not work for me, nothing shows.

Comment on Vertical Table Header Cell Renderer by Darryl Burke

Baze, this blog page is specifically about a renderer. As already said, renderers do not respond to input events.

I suggest you take your question to an appropriate forum, like forums.sun.com, java-forums.org or javaranch.com.

Sorry for taking so long to reply. The source code doesn’t show how to use the class. The example code in the blog is all you need to add this class to your program. However, I have included the test code as part of the OverlayLayout.jar file which you can download and then extract the code.

Comment on Row Number Table by Rob Camick

Yes that was sort of the idea why I created the RXTable class. Sometimes you can add a static method as demonstrated by the Table Column Reordering entry. Sometimes you need to override methods of the JTable as demonstrated by Table Select All Editor but sometime a separate class like this is more appropriate.

Very useful indeed!… I know JTable class is already packed full of methods… but just wished there would be a few more useful functions like this on offer. Maybe they could include a JTableAuxiliary or JTableUtilities or JTableConfigure class to assist in collecting all these extra goodies! :-)
ok thanks for tip.
Cheers.

xswingx has this. I’m using it (with a patch that is in the tracker but not applied since it appears that the author doesn’t look at the project anymore)
