  • Method Detail

    * #### mouseClicked  
    public void mouseClicked([MouseEvent](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseEvent.html "class in java.awt.event") e)  
    Called for a mouse click event. If the component is read-only (ie a browser) then the clicked event is used to drive an attempt to follow the reference specified by a link.  
    Specified by:  
    `[mouseClicked](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseListener.html#mouseClicked-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in interface `[MouseListener](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseListener.html "interface in java.awt.event")`  
    Overrides:  
    `[mouseClicked](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html#mouseClicked-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in class `[MouseAdapter](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html "class in java.awt.event")`  
    Parameters:  
    `e` \- the mouse event  
    See Also:  
    [MouseListener.mouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent)](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseListener.html#mouseClicked-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)  
    * #### mouseDragged  
    public void mouseDragged([MouseEvent](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseEvent.html "class in java.awt.event") e)  
    Invoked when a mouse button is pressed on a component and then dragged. `MOUSE_DRAGGED` events will continue to be delivered to the component where the drag originated until the mouse button is released (regardless of whether the mouse position is within the bounds of the component).  
     Due to platform-dependent Drag&Drop implementations,`MOUSE_DRAGGED` events may not be delivered during a native Drag&Drop operation.  
    Specified by:  
    `[mouseDragged](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseMotionListener.html#mouseDragged-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in interface `[MouseMotionListener](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseMotionListener.html "interface in java.awt.event")`  
    Overrides:  
    `[mouseDragged](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html#mouseDragged-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in class `[MouseAdapter](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html "class in java.awt.event")`  
    * #### mouseMoved  
    public void mouseMoved([MouseEvent](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseEvent.html "class in java.awt.event") e)  
    Invoked when the mouse cursor has been moved onto a component but no buttons have been pushed.  
    Specified by:  
    `[mouseMoved](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseMotionListener.html#mouseMoved-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in interface `[MouseMotionListener](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseMotionListener.html "interface in java.awt.event")`  
    Overrides:  
    `[mouseMoved](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html#mouseMoved-java.awt.event.MouseEvent-)` in class `[MouseAdapter](../../../../java/awt/event/MouseAdapter.html "class in java.awt.event")`  
    * #### activateLink  
    protected void activateLink(int pos,  
                                [JEditorPane](../../../../javax/swing/JEditorPane.html "class in javax.swing") editor)  
    Calls linkActivated on the associated JEditorPane if the given position represents a link.  
    This is implemented to forward to the method with the same name, but with the following args both == -1.  
    Parameters:  
    `pos` \- the position  
    `editor` \- the editor pane
