ScrollPaneLayout (Java 2 Platform SE 5.0) (original) (raw)

javax.swing

Class ScrollPaneLayout

java.lang.Object javax.swing.ScrollPaneLayout

All Implemented Interfaces:

LayoutManager, Serializable, ScrollPaneConstants

Direct Known Subclasses:

ScrollPaneLayout.UIResource

public class ScrollPaneLayout

extends Object

implements LayoutManager, ScrollPaneConstants, Serializable

The layout manager used by JScrollPane. JScrollPaneLayout is responsible for nine components: a viewport, two scrollbars, a row header, a column header, and four "corner" components.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

ScrollPaneLayout

public ScrollPaneLayout()

syncWithScrollPane

public void syncWithScrollPane(JScrollPane sp)

This method is invoked after the ScrollPaneLayout is set as the LayoutManager of a JScrollPane. It initializes all of the internal fields that are ordinarily set by addLayoutComponent. For example:

ScrollPaneLayout mySPLayout = new ScrollPanelLayout() { public void layoutContainer(Container p) { super.layoutContainer(p); // do some extra work here ... } }; scrollpane.setLayout(mySPLayout):

addSingletonComponent

protected Component addSingletonComponent(Component oldC, Component newC)

Removes an existing component. When a new component, such as the left corner, or vertical scrollbar, is added, the old one, if it exists, must be removed.

This method returns newC. If oldC is not equal to newC and is non-null, it will be removed from its parent.

Parameters:

oldC - the Component to replace

newC - the Component to add

Returns:

the newC

addLayoutComponent

• JScrollPane.LOWER_RIGHT_CORNER

Parameters:

s - the component identifier

c - the the component to be added

Throws:

[IllegalArgumentException](../../java/lang/IllegalArgumentException.html "class in java.lang") - if s is an invalid key

removeLayoutComponent

preferredLayoutSize

public Dimension preferredLayoutSize(Container parent)

The preferred size of a ScrollPane is the size of the insets, plus the preferred size of the viewport, plus the preferred size of the visible headers, plus the preferred size of the scrollbars that will appear given the current view and the current scrollbar displayPolicies.

Note that the rowHeader is calculated as part of the preferred width and the colHeader is calculated as part of the preferred size.

Specified by:

[preferredLayoutSize](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html#preferredLayoutSize%28java.awt.Container%29) in interface [LayoutManager](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html "interface in java.awt")

Parameters:

parent - the Container that will be laid out

Returns:

a Dimension object specifying the preferred size of the viewport and any scrollbars

See Also:

ViewportLayout, LayoutManager

minimumLayoutSize

public Dimension minimumLayoutSize(Container parent)

The minimum size of a ScrollPane is the size of the insets plus minimum size of the viewport, plus the scrollpane's viewportBorder insets, plus the minimum size of the visible headers, plus the minimum size of the scrollbars whose displayPolicy isn't NEVER.

Specified by:

[minimumLayoutSize](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html#minimumLayoutSize%28java.awt.Container%29) in interface [LayoutManager](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html "interface in java.awt")

Parameters:

parent - the Container that will be laid out

Returns:

a Dimension object specifying the minimum size

See Also:

LayoutManager.preferredLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)

layoutContainer

public void layoutContainer(Container parent)

Lays out the scrollpane. The positioning of components depends on the following constraints:

• The row header, if present and visible, gets its preferred width and the viewport's height.
• The column header, if present and visible, gets its preferred height and the viewport's width.
• If a vertical scrollbar is needed, i.e. if the viewport's extent height is smaller than its view height or if the displayPolicy is ALWAYS, it's treated like the row header with respect to its dimensions and is made visible.
• If a horizontal scrollbar is needed, it is treated like the column header (see the paragraph above regarding the vertical scrollbar).
• If the scrollpane has a non-null viewportBorder, then space is allocated for that.
• The viewport gets the space available after accounting for the previous constraints.
• The corner components, if provided, are aligned with the ends of the scrollbars and headers. If there is a vertical scrollbar, the right corners appear; if there is a horizontal scrollbar, the lower corners appear; a row header gets left corners, and a column header gets upper corners.

Specified by:

[layoutContainer](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html#layoutContainer%28java.awt.Container%29) in interface [LayoutManager](../../java/awt/LayoutManager.html "interface in java.awt")

Parameters:

parent - the Container to lay out

getViewportBorderBounds

@Deprecated public Rectangle getViewportBorderBounds(JScrollPane scrollpane)

Deprecated. As of JDK version Swing1.1 replaced by JScrollPane.getViewportBorderBounds().

Returns the bounds of the border around the specified scroll pane's viewport.

Returns:

the size and position of the viewport border
