jslider

I have made a GUI that uses a slider to scale an object up and down.(in this case a rectangle). I was wondering if there was a way to also use a slider to specify a degree of rotation. So there would be 2 sliders one to control scale and another to control the rotation. If anyone could help me make this that would be great here is what I have so far with just the scale slider. import javax.swing.*; public class Parker { public static void main(String[] args) { TheWindow w = new TheWindow(); w.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); //X wont close the window with out this line w.setSize

what is the best and easiest way to link a JSlider and a JTextField so that if one changes, the other gets updated too, but there is no recursive loop? thanks! Here's a quick and dirty demo: import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.event.*; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { final JFrame frame = new JFrame(); final JTextField text = new JTextField(20); final JSlider slider = new JSlider(0, 100, 0); slider.addChangeListener(new ChangeListener(){ @Override public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent e) { text.setText(String.valueOf

How can the size of the thumb be configured for a JSlider ? With the defaults, and a range for the JSlider of 256, the thumb is only a few pixels wide, which makes it quite difficult to control with a mouse. I am using the Windows 7 look and feel and the slider looks like this: Enabling paintTicks with a major and minor tick spacing of 0 gives a better (although not preferred) display: The desired display is shown in the following image - taken from a native Windows 7 application: You could try customizing the JSlider Look and Feel as follows: UIDefaults defaults = UIManager.getDefaults();

I have a single JPanel that contains a JSlider and a JLabel. I want to configure it so that when the JSlider's value is being changed by the user, that new value is reflected by the JLabel. I understand that I can fire ChangeEvents with the Slider, but I don't know how to add a ChangeListener to the JLabel. Here's a snippet of my code. scaleSlider.addChangeListener(new ChangeListener() { public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent event) { int currentTime = ((JSlider)event.getSource()).getValue(); doSomething(currentTime); fireStateChanged(event); } JLabel timeValue = new JLabel("Time: " +

Whenever I click a JSlider it gets positioned one majorTick in the direction of the click instead of jumping to the spot I actually click. (If slider is at point 47 and I click 5 it'll jump to 37 instead of 5). Is there any way to change this while using JSliders, or do I have to use another datastructure? As bizarre as this might seem, it's actually the Look and Feel which controls this behaviour. Take a look at BasicSliderUI , the method that you need to override is scrollDueToClickInTrack(int) . In order to set the value of the JSlider to the nearest value to where the user clicked on the

Here is a simple graphics programs which adds some stars on the screen. import acm.graphics.*; import acm.program.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; /** * This program creates a five-pointed star every time the * user clicks the mouse on the canvas. */ public class DrawStarMap1 extends GraphicsProgram { public void init() { /* Initializes the mouse listeners */ addMouseListeners(); /* The check box starts out in the "on" position */ fillCheckBox = new JCheckBox("Filled"); fillCheckBox.setSelected(true); add(fillCheckBox, SOUTH); /* Clears the screen with a button */ add(new
