  2. Important stuff Menu bar, menu, and menu items Toolbar Scroll Pane Dialog Box FileChooser Optional stuff Tabbed Pane Popup Menu ChangeListener KeyListener … JEdit – A Simple Text Editor

  3. Swing Components HOWTO • http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/componentlist.html

  4. Top-level Container Layout Content Pane Title Menu

  5. Menu Bar JMenuBar() add( JMenu ) Menu JMenu( String ) add( JMenuItem ) Menu Bar and Menu JMenuBar mb = new JMenuBar(); JMenu fileMenu = new JMenu (“File”); mb.add( fileMenu ); setMenuBar( mb ); // add a menu bar fileMenu.setMnemonic( KeyEvent.VK_F ); // add a hotkey

  6. Menu Items • JMenuItem( String ) • JMenuItem( String, int ) JMenuItem miOpen = new JMenuItem( “Open...”, KeyEvent.VK_O ); JMenuItem miSave = new JMenuItem( “Save...”, KeyEvent.VK_S ); JMenuItem miExit = new JMenuItem( “Exit” ); fileMenu.add( miOpen ); // add a menu item fileMenu.add( miSave ); fileMenu.addSeparator(); // add a menu separator fileMenu.add( miExit );

  7. Tool Bar and Tool Tip • JToolBar( String title ) • setToolTipText( String ) in JComponent JToolBar tb = new JToolBar( “Standard” ); Container cp = getContentPane(); cp.add( tb, BorderLayout.NORTH ); JButton ob = new JButton( "o" ); ob.setTipTipText( “Open File” );

  8. Scroll Pane • Provides a scrollable view of a component • JScrollPane( Component ) Container cp = getContentPane(); JTextArea ta = new JTextArea(); cp.add( (new JScrollPane(ta)), BorderLayout.CENTER );

  9. File Chooser • JFileChooser() • showDialog( Component, String ) • showOpenDialog( Component ) • showSaveDailog( Component ) • getSelectedFile() JFileChooser fc = new JFileChooser(); int status = fc.showOpenDialog( this ); if( status == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION ) { File f = fc.getSelectedFile(); }

  10. Dialog Boxes • JColorChooser, JFileChooser • JDialog for complex and/or non-modal dialog boxes • A dialog is modal if it blocks the input to all other windows of the program • JOptionPane for simple dialog boxes

  12. Tabbed Pane • JTabbedPane() • addTab( String, Component ) • getSelectedIndex() • addChangeListener( ChangeListener ) JTabbedPane tp = new JTabbedPane(); JTextArea ta1 = new JTextArea(); JTextArea ta2 = new JTextArea(); tp.addTab( “file1”, new JScrollPane(ta1) ); tp.addTab( “file2”, new JScrollPane(ta2) ); getContentPane().add( tp, BorderLayout.CENTER );

  13. Popup Menu • JPopupMenu() • add( JMenuItem ) • addSeparator() • show( Component invoker, int x, int y )

  14. Bring up a Popup Menu • Register a MouseListener on the component • Check isPopupTrigger() of the mouse event • In mousePressed() and mouseReleased() • But not in mouseClicked() • Example: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/menu.html#popup
