Control the layout in a dynamic graphical user interface

I have a main panel using BorderLayout with two sub-panels, a control panel to the North, and a billboard in the centre. The control panel contains a set of controls, and this set of orders grows and shrinks dynamically when the user interacts with the application.

I have this stated control panel using FlowLayout. My problem is that when the set of controls is too long to fit on one line, the next control to add never appears, because the Panel does not grow to two lines. I like control panel to develop at the expense of the main display panel in the Center (and shrink again when controls are removed so that the rest fit again in one line).

Essentially, the behavior I want is analogous to how JTabbedPane: it adds and removes tabs in a JTabbedPane, the tab region shrinks and grows dynamically.

Of course, there is an extra step that I have to run every time that I add or remove a control, to force the various layout managers to do their work. I tried various combininations to invalidate and revalidation of the Control Panel, the main panel and so on, but I have nothing seems to have the desired effect.

Thanks for your suggestions.

The code that I provided was really useful? So, what is your final solution? I'm sure that others in the forum would like to see your solution.

If the answer to the question marks, he said. You don't want to ask another question and that people trying to answer.

  • Try to control the layout of the theme with CSS

    I can't take control of some aspects of the layout. I don't want to keep putting in the HTML element attributes. I'm on version 4.2.6 but I installed an export on apex.oracle.com. But it is version 5. I hope someone can tell me how to solve this 4.2 and not to use the features of version 5.

    Question:

    Try to reduce the padding between the selection lists and do all the same length. I was able to set the time via a style tag on the attributes of the HTML elements, but it should really be in there only once in CSS and just reference it. I put a CSS in the shared components and attempted to reference in the page template 'No No. Sidebar Tabs'. And when I inspect element, it shows that the padding is being inherited two div above.

    So the question is, what is the best way to replace these parameters? And where can I put the Style width = 180px instead of put it in the HTML elements?

    Thank you

    Check your application. Added CSS following in Page attributes-> section-> Inline CSS:

    table.formlayout td select {
        margin: 2px 0 7px !important;
        width: 180px !important;
    }
    

    NOTE:! important is to override the margin css rules and defined already by apex theme css width.

    If you want to apply CSS to multiple items at the same time, there is no need to go to each item put a style attribute in each element. You have the means to apply CSS rules to elements using CSS selectors:

    Reference:

    As to make a css custom rules for your apex application file and that it is the reference. Reference: the JavaScript in the Apex 4.2.4 file storage

  • I have the new apple TV, and he had the new user interface.  Friday he returned to the old version of apple TV user interface.  Anyone know why this could have happened

    This is a silly question, but I'm not too tech savvy.  I don't know I have changed something somewhere.  I have the new Apple TV, and he had the new user interface, which means that the appearance of the applications using the applications, example, scroll down to Netflix, Netflix, etc. to research.  This weekend he returned to the UI I've seen on my old Apple TV. Does anyone know why this could have happened and how I me the new interface to return?  I did a reset to the original values Apple TV and it did not work.  The tvOS is 9.1 (13U85).

    Try to understand the issue.

    Do you mean that you have an apple tv4, but he has a home screen display from the older ATV 2/3?  You can attach a screenshot?

    I have never heard of it and don't know how it is possible that they run entirely new software on the ATV4...

  • How can I make user custom interface e-mail allow the user to control the tests?

    Hello.

    I am totally new to TestStand and I try to use it to test a simple dll to a larger system, as kind of an assessment to see if we want to migrate to this system.

    I use TestStand 4.2 with LabWindows/CVI 8.5... He was going along fine, but now I'm stuck trying to customize the user interface

    Specifically, I want to have the user be able to control what are called in the order and be able to choose (through, say, a digital control) what inputs are sent to the object to be measured.

    I found a few examples, but they seem just to manage the display of TS data to the user interface, not * is * data of the UI back to TS...

    Is there a tutorial that handles such things?

    I'm seriously lost here.

    To answer your question, the best way to get info from the user interface in the file of the sequence is to do the same thing were the examples you were watching.  Except that your data will be the SequenceContext.  Then, you can use the nodes property or even the screws TS to set the properties inside your sequence.

    There may be a better way to accomplish what you want though.  Why not pop up a dialog box (written in CVI) in the (substituted in your movie file) PreUUT with a list of 'tests' of your sequence?  The user can select which tests they want to run.  Then the prerequisites for your steps which indicate the step execution based on what the user has selected.  The dialog box can also have entries that is filled to the sequence (with parameters) which can FileGlobals or people of the country or whatever.

    User interface messages are used for the duration of decisions or feedback.  It seems that your case would be more than one once a decision to run.  Unless they choose tests during execution.

    Hope this helps,

  • The best way to separate the user interface in the model LV 2012 queued Message Handler?

    If you create a new "queued Message Handler" new model 2012 LV, you will see a blue box in the case of "Update view" that says the following:

    Code Recommended - If you wish to decouple the Message Handling Loop from your user interface, consider creating User Events (like the "Stop" event in this VI) to message the Event Handling Loop whenever the user interface needs updating.
    

    I would like to give a suggestion, but I am struggling to find the best way to do this and still keep code modular.  The template creates a user - Stop.lvlib "event with a create/Destroy/fire Subvi.  I would like to create a library of "User event - Update UI.lvlib" similar with similar Create/Destroy/fire Subvi keep this new modular and separate user event.  The problem, I am struck, is that there may be only two hydrants in case Structure dynamic event so, how I modularlize creating user events in separate SubVIs and always maintain this dynamic event terminals?

    As a follow-up on the issue, it would be preferable to have a library of user by indicator events that must be updated or that a single UI update of the user and then event pass a cluster as the message that contains the name of the control for the update (to use with a structure of matter), then the data to go with it?

    Thank you!

    Instead of having the events to record in the 'create' methods, you could be part outside your 'create' SubVIs and then simply bundle them. Then, you create your individual event of the user management. See excerpt where I created a vi 'Create user event - Update' in front of the stop.

  • The User Interface browser missing

    Hello

    I'm sorry, but the coffee crisis seems to persist...

    While working on the interface graphical user Interface browser, located to the right of the user interface, disappeared. Because the GUI is larger than the window and I need to scroll horizontally to evaluate the right-hand side of it, I didn't know this fact immediately. Therefore, I don't know what it was, I did it to make the browser UI disappear. Navigation assistance, I found no hint of how to show/hide the browser, so I guess it should always be there...

    I checked: the user interface editor is limited. I also tried to release and re - lock all windows, without effect.

  • What happened to the adjustment of the layout? CS6 MENA

    Hey, what happened to the adjustment of the layout?

    I'm looking at InDesign CS6 8.0.1 ME version (active, English Hebrew

    interface). It is certainly not in the menu available. I've got

    'Create an another Layout', 'Liquid Layout', 'Reverse Layout' (year ME)

    featured), but no adjustment of layout!

    I clicked on "Show all Menus" in the menu of workspaces in the upper part of the

    screen.

    I trashed preferences.

    Nothing helps.

    The only way I can access now to control the layout is done by Quick

    Apply (with "Include menu commands" checked).

    Also, in Edit > Menus > menu Application, there is no entry I see

    to set page layout (I'm looking under the headings of menu layout).

    So... where they headed layout setting to? Where is the your

    machine?

    Alternatively, they just forgot to include it?
