    Angry Evil JScrollBars

    I've tried with this code to get my ScrollBars to scroll down on the JFrame itself so I can enlarge the text area without losing any buttons. However, the only way to get the scrollbars to be of any nice size, still don't know if they will enlarge the JFrames ability to store more than can be viewable normally without scrollbars, but when that happens, my buttons take up the whole page, except for the scroll bar!!! Just one button takes up the whole page I mean. I've tried and tried and tried and I tried to do it on my own but it won't work and now I'm really upset.

    Please make a SMALL program that demos the problem. You've post too much code to work with.

    You may consider getting rid of the JButtons entirely, and move on to a JComboBox...it'll reduce all those buttons down into a single component which - because of the reduction - doesn't need to be scrolled.

    Clever idea, but that won't help with it taking up so much room that the JTextArea doesn't show.

    I only wanted to add the scroll panes because I wanted to enlarge the text area and still keep all of the buttons. Also, I know how to handle buttons, at least I think I'm starting to get it, but I haven't ever used a JComboBox before.

    I don't know how to add an ActionListener to that one with an array of Objects. It keeps claiming that actionPerformed or whatever is not defined for Object.

    If you mean the main method, see longer code. This is just a segment of it, pertaining to the part that isn't doing what I want it to. What code am I missing? BorderLayout? Tried it, but it makes one button take up almost the whole screen, though it does make the scrollbar larger.



    Oh you mean the JComboBox? I didn't know how to get it, as it's an array, to do an ActionListener. I tried the obvious Object[[ items = new Object[4];

    items[0].addActionListener()....

    but it didn't like it, so I got rid of the JComboBox, though I'd like to know how to work it, but my brain is fried right now from my stupid VCR destroying my video and trying to fix it, and most likely just making it worse, and trying a lot of the day to get the JScrollBar to work and go on the JFrame so I can scroll down if I have too many buttons, or the JTextArea is too huge, as it is a bit smallish right now and I want to make it 40,40, but I need to have scroll bars on the JFrame or else all of the buttons won't fit. The scroll bars are there, not where I want them, about 3/4 of an inch long/tall. Not quite what I wanted.

    Still not following enough to answer your first question directly (obviously because I assumed a JComboBox would solve your problem). One suggestion would be to simplify the problem....reduce your layout/problem/whatever...into a simple program that reproduces what you see in some way (this helps both us and you). In my opinion GUI's are easier to build from the bottom up rather than top down.

    How do I do listeners for the JComboBox like I would for the chapter? That would allow me to make the JTextArea quite a bit wider and longer. However, I still would prefer two scrollbars so I can make it maybe 45 by 45 or larger instead of 25 by 25.

    I just got an idea though for something from something I found on Google. Maybe if I set layout to null it will work and not have a "superlarge" button.

    Read the API for JComboBox and follow the link to the tutorial on How to Use Combo Boxes where you will find a working example.

    Bad idea. When you're done reading the combo box tutorial, fish around till you find the tutorial on Laying out Components in a Container. Find the layout that suits your requirement. It probably won't be BorderLayout.

    Ok, setting the layout will get one of the scroll bars to appear, but I can't get anything else to come up, and the scroll bar still isn't big enough. It is of no value unless I can use it so I can have more on a JPanel than I could without one.

    Hmmmm....is it possible to add a JScrollPane to a JFrame itself and not just to a text area within that JFrame/JPanel?

    When using a JComboBox, do I use an ItmeListener or an ActionListener for each thing in the JComboBox? The site has a constructor like this JComboBox(Object[] items );

    That's why I'm wondering if perhaps I should use an item listener.

    However, I still would like to know how to add JScrollBars.

    See how the thing that lets you write these comments has both a scroll bar in the text field and one that comes to scroll down the whole page. How do you get the one that scrolls down the whole page? And no, I don't want an applet....I just am trying to make a window vs. just a text area that can scroll down.

           bar.addAdjustmentListener(
        		   new AdjustmentListener()
        		   {
        			   public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e)
        			   {
        				   label.setText("    New Value is " + e.getValue() + "      ");
        				      repaint();
     
        			   }
        		   });
     
           bar2.addAdjustmentListener(
        		   new AdjustmentListener()
        		   {
        			   public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e)
        			   {
        				   label2.setText("    New Value is " + e.getValue() + "      ");
        				      repaint();
        			   }
        		   });

    this is the smallest I can get. It needs to go into the larger program, otherwise I could extend JFrame. I want my scroll bars to work like JScrollPanes, but they don't actually scroll down or left or right or up the JPanel.

    This is useless. It needs to be a complete program that compiles and executes.

    If you want a complete program, it'll have to be the long one, but only focus on ExoWindow.
    That one will compile, though I already had an image that showed what ExoWindow did posted earlier.

    Definitely do NOT want the complete program.

    I still don't know how to get the JPanel itself to scroll down, but I did, but doing something with JScrollBar, make it able, when a certain scrollbar is moved, to be able to resize the JFrame! I noticed one that didn't have scrollbars couldn't resize like that, so my efforts are totally useless. Perhaps a mysterious thing called a JInternalFrame might make the need for a scrollbar unneceesary. However, I can't get it to stay open or do anything much. Do I need a JDesktopPane first?

    Cool Re: Evil JScrollBars

    Oh, so JDesktopPane, which I still don't know exactly what it is, is used to hold multiple JInternalPanes that might overlap each other.
