SortedListModel adding just one item

I have a SortedListModel called comandaDescriptionListModel:
private SortedListModel comandaDescriptionListModel;
I have other SortedListModels within my application, but this one fails to add items after 1 element. Just 1 element gets added, and it makes no sense.
btnAddComanda.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
#SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
JPanel addPanel = new JPanel();
addPanel.add(new JLabel("Descrição:"));
JTextField comandaDescriptionField = new JTextField();
comandaDescriptionField.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(200, 24));
addPanel.add(comandaDescriptionField);
comandaDescriptionField.requestFocusInWindow();
String comandaName = "C" + Integer.toString(comandaListModel.getSize()+1);
int result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, addPanel, "Adicionar comanda",
JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
if (result == JOptionPane.OK_OPTION) {
if (comandaListModel.getSize() == 0) {
productComboBox.setEnabled(true);
btnAddProduct.setEnabled(true);
}
String comandaDescription = comandaDescriptionField.getText();
getCurrentCashRegister().addComanda(comandaName, comandaDescription);
// Comanda description model not adding items,
// Need to fix it
comandaListModel.addElement(comandaName);
comandaDescriptionListModel.addElement(comandaDescription); // HERE <<<
comandaList.setSelectedIndex(comandaList.getLastVisibleIndex());
clearProductComboBox();
updateProductComboBox();
}
}
});
Here's a screenshot:
Under "descrição", it should continue to "b" and "c". I can only think it's a bug. Is there some swing bug that causes problems when appending to more than one list at the same time?

When I deal with multi JList components, I do it in own way and also play with all given facilities.
why not, I use this below source code?

Why is the KeyListener not working?

I'm new to java and wondering what's wrong with my code.

Trying To Delay the Appearance of JLabels in a JDialog

Hi I've there a little problem: What I want is to delay the appearance of JLabels in a JDialog-Window, in terms of that the first line of JLabels shoud come out and then two seconds later the second line of Jlabels etc.
I've tried something with Windowlistener,the doClick()-Method etc., bu every time the Jdialog revalidates all of its panels AT ONCE and shows them without any delaying!
Please help me(Just copy the code below and try out)!

This is a really good use case for javax.swing.Timer...
This will allow you to schedule a callback, at a regular interval with which you can perform an action, safely on the UI.
private class WindowHandler extends WindowAdapter {
#Override
public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {
System.out.println("...");
Timer timer = new Timer(2000, new ActionListener() {
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
JPanel panel = getPanelFromScreenPanel(1);
panel.setLayout(new GridBagLayout());
GridBagConstraints gbc = new GridBagConstraints();
gbc.gridwidth = GridBagConstraints.REMAINDER;
for (int index = 0; index < 100; index++) {
panel.add(new JLabel(Integer.toString(index)), gbc);
}
panel.revalidate();
}
});
timer.start();
timer.setRepeats(false);
}
}
Now, if you wanted to do a series of actions, separated by the interval, you could use a counter to determine the number of "ticks" that have occurred and take appropriate action...
private class WindowHandler extends WindowAdapter {
#Override
public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {
System.out.println("...");
Timer timer = new Timer(2000, new ActionListener() {
private int counter = 0;
private int maxActions = 10;
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
switch (counter) {
case 0:
// Action for case 0...
break;
case 1:
// Action for case 1...
break;
.
.
.
}
counter++;
if (counter >= maxActions) {
((Timer)e.getSource()).stop();
}
}
});
timer.start();
}
}
Take a look at How to use Swing Timers for more details

Filtering out tab character with documentFilter

So, I have a program with JTextArea with DocumentFilter. It should (among other things) filter out tab characters and prevent them to be entered in the JTextArea completely.
Well, it works well when I type, but I can still paste it in. i shouldn't be able to, according to the code...
Below is kind of a SSCCE. Just run it, press ctrl+n and enter. All the colored fileds are JTextAreas with same DocumentFilter. The filter itself is the first class (DefaultDocFilter), only thing you need to look into.

Why don't you assign String into DocumentFilter
str = str.replaceAll()?

Java Swing: Enabling/Disabling all components in JPanel

I have a JPanel which contains a JToolbar (including few buttons without text) and a JTable and I need to enable/disable (make internal widgets not clickable). I tried this:
JPanel panel = ....;
for (Component c : panel.getComponents()) c.setEnabled(enabled);
but it doesn't work. Is there a better and more generic solution to enable/disable all internal components in a JPanel?
I have partially solved my problem using JLayer starting from the example here http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/misc/jlayer.html:
layer = new JLayer<JComponent>(myPanel, new BlurLayerUI(false));
.....
((BlurLayerUI)layer.getUI()).blur(...); // switch blur on/off
class BlurLayerUI extends LayerUI<JComponent> {
private BufferedImage mOffscreenImage;
private BufferedImageOp mOperation;
private boolean blur;
public BlurLayerUI(boolean blur) {
this.blur = blur;
float ninth = 1.0f / 9.0f;
float[] blurKernel = {
ninth, ninth, ninth,
ninth, ninth, ninth,
ninth, ninth, ninth
};
mOperation = new ConvolveOp(
new Kernel(3, 3, blurKernel),
ConvolveOp.EDGE_NO_OP, null);
}
public void blur(boolean blur) {
this.blur=blur;
firePropertyChange("blur", 0, 1);
}
#Override
public void paint (Graphics g, JComponent c) {
if (!blur) {
super.paint (g, c);
return;
}
int w = c.getWidth();
int h = c.getHeight();
if (w == 0 || h == 0) {
return;
}
// Only create the offscreen image if the one we have
// is the wrong size.
if (mOffscreenImage == null ||
mOffscreenImage.getWidth() != w ||
mOffscreenImage.getHeight() != h) {
mOffscreenImage = new BufferedImage(w, h, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
}
Graphics2D ig2 = mOffscreenImage.createGraphics();
ig2.setClip(g.getClip());
super.paint(ig2, c);
ig2.dispose();
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
g2.drawImage(mOffscreenImage, mOperation, 0, 0);
}
#Override
public void applyPropertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent pce, JLayer l) {
if ("blur".equals(pce.getPropertyName())) {
l.repaint();
}
}
}
I still have 2 problems:
In the link above events are relative to mouse only. How can I manage the keyboard events?
How can I create a "gray out" effect in place of blur?

It requires a recursive call.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class DisableAllInContainer {
public void enableComponents(Container container, boolean enable) {
Component[] components = container.getComponents();
for (Component component : components) {
component.setEnabled(enable);
if (component instanceof Container) {
enableComponents((Container)component, enable);
}
}
}
DisableAllInContainer() {
JPanel gui = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
final JPanel container = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
gui.add(container, BorderLayout.CENTER);
JToolBar tb = new JToolBar();
container.add(tb, BorderLayout.NORTH);
for (int ii=0; ii<3; ii++) {
tb.add(new JButton("Button"));
}
JTree tree = new JTree();
tree.setVisibleRowCount(6);
container.add(new JScrollPane(tree), BorderLayout.WEST);
container.add(new JTextArea(5,20), BorderLayout.CENTER);
final JCheckBox enable = new JCheckBox("Enable", true);
enable.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
enableComponents(container, enable.isSelected());
}
});
gui.add(enable, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, gui);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
#Override
public void run() {
new DisableAllInContainer();
}
});
}}

I used the following function:
void setPanelEnabled(JPanel panel, Boolean isEnabled) {
panel.setEnabled(isEnabled);
Component[] components = panel.getComponents();
for(int i = 0; i < components.length; i++) {
if(components[i].getClass().getName() == "javax.swing.JPanel") {
setPanelEnabled((JPanel) components[i], isEnabled);
}
components[i].setEnabled(isEnabled);
}
}

you can overlay whole Container / JComponent
GlassPane block by default MouseEvents, but not Keyboard, required consume all keyevents from ToolKit
JLayer (Java7) based on JXLayer (Java6)
can't see reason(s) why not works for you

if you want to make it more general:
void setPanelEnabled(java.awt.Container cont, Boolean isEnabled) {
cont.setEnabled(isEnabled);
java.awt.Component[] components = cont.getComponents();
for (int i = 0; i < components.length; i++) {
if (components[i] instanceof java.awt.Container) {
setPanelEnabled((java.awt.Container) components[i], isEnabled);
}
components[i].setEnabled(isEnabled);
}
}
