I am new to AWT and was wondering how to remove the title bar that comes up when we open a frame and add customised title bar.
Though I was able to remove Tiltle Bar using setUndecorated(true) but not getting a idea how to add a Custom Title bar with just a ICON and Close Operartion. Also I need to color the Title Bar with a specific color.
P.S : Cannot use Swing
Thanks in Advance !!!
You have 2 possibilities.
Use java.awt.Window instead of Frame.
Use JFrame and call frame.setUndecorated(true);

As far as I know, the only way is to use your own UI delegate for the internal frame. See http://today.java.net/pub/a/today/2007/02/22/how-to-write-custom-swing-component.html for an article explaining how UI delegates work.
Since you seem to use the Synth look n' feel, you should be able to easily create your own subclass of SynthInternalFrameUI, that would override the createNorthPane() method in order to create and return an instance of a custom subclass of SynthInternalFrameTitlePane.
This custom title pane would in turn override the addSubComponents() method in order to not add the menuButton. I've not tested all that, so maybe you'll need to override additional methods.
1. how to remove or hide the left side Drop Down Menu only on jinternal frame Title Bar and not to remove or hide whole Title Bar. source code:
BasicInternalFrameUI ui = (BasicInternalFrameUI)internalFrame.getUI();
Container north = (Container)ui.getNorthPane();
north.remove(0);
north.validate();
north.repaint();
2. how to set not Move jinternal frame by mouse holding in jdesktop pane. source code:
for(MouseListener listener : ((javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicInternalFrameUI) internalFrame.getUI()).getNorthPane().getMouseListeners()){
((javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicInternalFrameUI) internalFrame.getUI()).getNorthPane().removeMouseListener(listener);
}
Thanks

Hi guys, I was wondering if there was any way to completely remove the title bar of the tabs (i.e 'tab2', 'tab3' e.t.c).
At the moment i am only able to use jTabbedPane1.setTitleAt(0, null); to remove the text in the title bar (or in netbeans just clear the text) but is there a way to completely hide the tab title bar?
Thanks
You could call them " ". If you want to hide them completely, why do you want a tab bar without a tab bar? You could just have different panels you swap around.
How to add some JtextField in title bar of JFrame..?
Or if I want to add some components in Title bar of Jframe
Like there are tabs in Firefox
( although i know firefox is not made up in java competely )
You can call setUndecorated(true) on JFrames. Then you can implement your own titlebar which can be e.g. a tab bar like in Firefox or Chrome. But you need to take care for widgets for closing, moving, minimizing the window.
When declaring your JFrame where I have "Test" put what you want the title of your JFrame to be.
Window = new JFrame("Test");
I'm creating two menu bar 1st menu bar is for background color & 2nd is for text color.the application contains text component where user can type text.when user press either of menu scroll bar are shown on screen.for red,blue,green, color component the user can adjust the position of scroll bar,on pressing "OK" button the foreground or background of text component on frame changes according to the menu choice.
One possibility is to create an MDI (one parent window, with an internal child window for each document). See: How to Use Internal Frames. The JDesktopPane and each JInternalWindow can have their own menus.
Two menus bars sounds awkward. Usually a single menu bar is more than enough to handle. Have you considered a popup menu instead for the second set of menus? If you still insist on adding multiple menu bars to a frame, consider changing their position for example use BorderLayout.SOUTH on one of them.
My problem is related with what Jonas asked on the next topics:
How to add support for resizing when using an undecorated JFrame?
How can I customize the title bar on JFrame?
I want to create a custom window without the native title bar. This can be done by calling:
setUndecorated(true);
However, this also removes the re-size mechanism. So now I am using the next code:
public UndecoratedFrame() {
this.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.FRAME);
menu.add(item);
menuBar.add(menu);
this.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
this.setUndecorated(true);
this.getRootPane().setBorder(border);
this.setSize(400,340);
this.setVisible(true);
}
This returns a window like this:
http://www.roseindia.net/java/example/java/swing/CreateJList.shtml
(Consider only the title bar and borders)
How can I remove the top title bar without removing the re-size decorator? Or should I customize the default title bar? How can I do this by a simple way?
The idea is to end with a frame only with its borders (and the re-size working..). Then, I can create a custom title bar with a JPanel and buttons triggering the close, minimization, etc. OS events.
Thanks in advance for your support.
You need to implement your own mouse listeners and interpret the mouse gestures, programmatically resizing the window.
Another option is to use JIDE Common Layer - it provides multiple implementations of its ResizableSupport interface, including ResizableFrame which does what you describe.
