I am writing a tableview based program which stores its values in MySQL.
I need to create textBoxes with x button like in Gmail in textfields class(considering that there would be several boxes in one field) with auto completion on JavaFX. The Boxes supposed to be like this:
Example
The box also will have hidden values, supposed to be stored in MySQL and do some action when clicked on them.
Apologize if question is simple I am kind of beginner in Java
You need to add the button in the TextBox:
CustomTextField textfield = new CustomTextField
textfield.setRight(new Button());
And on button you can add every style what you want

How do I disable input on my editable Combobox? (Well, actually JFoenix JFXCombobox but it's basically the same apart from it's appearance)
setEditable(false) would disable keyboard input on the Combobox but the list would still appear
setDisabled(true) would disable whole Combobox but I want user to be able to focus Combobox so he can copy it's contents if necessery.
Why do I want it like that? In my forms user must first click edit button to be able to change stuff.
Basically, the method ComboBox.setEditable adds/removes an Editor to the ComboBox which can be retrieved via ComboBox.getEditor()
To keep the TextField (to copy from) but disable user-input, simply set the editable flag on the underlying TextField:
private ComboBox<String> myComboBox;
[...]
myComboBox.setEditable(true);
myComboBox.getEditor().setEditable(false);
EDIT:
As #jewelsea said in a comment below, you can hide the list as soon as the user requests to open it:
myComboBox.setOnShown(event -> comboBox.hide());
I think it would be "cleaner" to disable the button which opens the dropdown but unfortunately I have not yet found a way to do that.
Do we have an option to make the GXT textfield remember the history of the words that have been given as an input. So when i click the textfield next time, it should list all the searches below the textbox. Thanks in advance!
You can use an editable combobox. In order to look like text field and hide the arrow image in combobox, you can use setHideTrigger(false). So, you can have a combo box that functions like a text box. Also, you can add all the search terms in a store. That is it. You are done.
Java Swing: I recently started learning Swing and I want to add several labels, one button, and three combo box INSIDE A Drop Down Pane! When the user clicks the drop down pane, you can see labels, textfields and comboboxes which will contain the values and when the users clicks drop down pane again, then all the textfields, labels etc are hidden. Is it possible and if yes then could you please help me out (code would be very much appreciated). If you did not understand the design then please visit emirates.com and click on 'Book a Flight'! I'll be trying to implement that type of design
If you want a multi-row data display object, and you want multiple interactable components on the row, don't use the wrong tool, a JComboBox, for this. Use a better tool: a JTable.
I'm trying to make a Quizz, and I've created multiple PanCards(15), each having a question and 4 answers (radio buttons or check boxes or text fields) and I'm trying to export what the user clicks/introduces in a *.txt file.
Is there any method to do it more quick? Or I should create an eventListener for each question and if the checkboxes are selected, I'll write them separately.
I can't figure out how am I supposed to know how many checkboxes will going to be selected, since each pan has 4 checkboxes from which the user can select from 0 to 4 answers and the radio buttons are grouped as buttonGroup(1,2,7,8,13)
So, I can't do something like this:
for (int i=0; i
Any ideas?
I don't think you need eventlisteners for every element. The way I see it you don't want the info about the checkboxes/text fields when the user just filled them in. You should just check the status of your checkboxes and textfields when the user is done with the specific quiz question, which is when for example the user presses a button labeled "Next question".
I have a list of textfields, and a list of buttons. These are laid out on a form with the buttons next to the textfields. Let's say there are 5 of each, they are 1 through 5. In reality, the number will be created at runtime.
When the user clicks a button, a new form is opened, which guides the user through creating a string. When they finish on that form, a text string is written in to the text field next to the button.
I'd like to create a relationship between each button and text field so that I know which text field to write in based on which button was clicked.
Is there a Java standard here? If not, any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks
Well either wrap or extend JButton to add a JTextfield field. Upon creation of the Button, pass the associated textfield to it and then you can pass along that info.
I'd like to create a relationship between each button and text field
Create an ActionListener class that takes the text field as a parameter. Something like:
JTextField textField = new JTextField();
JButton button = new JButton(...);
button.addActionListener( new FormPopupListener( textField ) );
Then you can save the text field as a variable in your listener class and when the dialog closes you can update the text field.
You have two lists, why not use the index in the list? Button at index 0 relates to textfield at index 0 and so on. Another alternative would be wrap them in an object that contains the button and the textfield and run a single list.
I would use the second route but there is nothing wrong with just using the index of the list.
Basically you can subclass JButton with additional attribute index. You can populate the index when creating the buttons and it will refer to index of text field in array of text fields. If you want you can even have a name given to each text field and add them to a map and then give the name to button to lookup the required text field.
