I use the ContentProposalAdapter to provide content assist to my StyledText fields. I wrote an adapter that implements IControlContentAdapter, IControlContentAdapter2 to support the StyledText. My problem is that, when I press return to insert the proposal the return key is inserted into the StyledText and after that the proposal is inserted.
Why are the UP and DOWN arrows not traversed, but the return key is.
How to prevent the return key from begin inserted into the StyledText field when used to select a proposal.
maybe the question is old, but as I googled and this Post nearly covered my problem, but without a solution, I thought to provide my solution I found now.
My Problem was exactly the same but the newline got inserted after the selected proposal.
Selecting the proposal via double click works just fine so I agreed with you that it´s probably the StyledTextWidget that gets notified about the Enter...
First I tried setPropagateKeys(false) on my ContentProposalAdapter, as the doc says it "indicates whether key events (including auto-activation characters) received by the content proposal popup should also be propagated to the adapted control when the proposal popup is open". But this does not work either.
What actually worked for me is the following:
I added an VerifyKeyListener to the StyledTextWidget and just filtered the Enter Event when the ProposalPopup is open. I thought that maybe wouldn´t work as the newline gets inserted after the proposal but on my program it works fine so it seems the closure of the proposal popup is done after the Enter Key is passed to the StyledTextWidget.
Heres the code:
styledText.addVerifyKeyListener(new VerifyKeyListener() {
#Override
public void verifyKey(VerifyEvent arg0) {
try {
KeyStroke k = KeyStroke.getInstance("Enter");
if(k.getNaturalKey() == arg0.keyCode && contentProposalAdapter.isProposalPopupOpen()) {
arg0.doit = false;
}
} catch (ParseException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
} });
I don't know how did you implement IControlContentAdapter, IControlContentAdapter2 in your code. Did you try this? I use that in my custom StyledText implementation. But all of them are SWT.SINGLE Text fields. I hope it may help you.

I am having a weird problem on my Vaadin app. I have a screen with two separate unbuffered grids.
The user is able to edit the data in those two grids and then click a "Save" button to save the changes made.
My problem is that I want to close the editors when the user clicks on "Save".
I tried the following code:
private void closeEditors() {
if (tab1.getEditor().isOpen()) {
tab1.getEditor().closeEditor();
}
if (tab2.getEditor().isOpen()) {
tab2.getEditor().closeEditor();
}
}
I don't understand why this code doesn't work, editors stay opened. I also tried calling the cancel method but in vain.
I am using Vaadin 14.
I am posting this here with not much hope of finding an answer, this problem seems really precise.
But with any luck, maybe someone has experienced a similar issue ?
Maybe there is another glitchier way of forcing my editors to close ?
Any suggestion would be of great help, thanks in advance for anything you could think of !
EDIT: a little more code
This is the grids:
private Grid<Map<String, String>> tab1;
private Grid<Map<String, List<String>>> tab2;
This is the save function
public void saveData() {
saveDataFromTab1();
saveDataFromTab2();
try {
ServicesProxyImpl.getInstance().updateInBD(someObject);
saveButton.setEnabled(false);
cancelButton.setEnabled(false);
closeEditors();
Dialog dialog = VaadinComponentUtils.generateDialog(Constantes.MSG_SAVE_OK);
dialog.open();
} catch (JAXBException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
Dialog dialog = VaadinComponentUtils.generateDialog(Constantes.MSG_SAVE_KO);
dialog.open();
}
}
And this is the save button:
public Button getSaveButton() {
Button saveButton= VaadinComponentUtils.generateButton("Save",
VaadinIcon.CHECK_CIRCLE_O, null, true);
saveButton.setEnabled(false);
saveButton.addClickListener(event -> saveData());
return saveButton;
}
EDIT 2:
I have noticed something, when I click on an element of one of my two grids, I want the editor to open for that specific element and I want to close the editor on the other grid (the one not concerned by the modification). This works ! My grids behave like I want. It seems I am only losing control over my editors after I have actually modified one of the cells and clicked on my save button.
The isOpen function returns false on both grids after I call my closeEditors function, so it seems the grid thinks its editor is closed but it is still opened on my UI.
EDIT 3: I have found a workaround
Well, I have solved my problem by adding a close event listener on both my grids and calling resetGrids when the close event is fired. This function simply removes the grids from the UI, fetches the data to be displayed and then adds the grid one again, both editors being closed. I guess it solves my problem but I would have wanted to understand what was going on...
private void closeEditors() {
tableauHoraires.getEditor().addCloseListener(e -> resetGrids());
tableauRamassagePorteAPorte.getEditor().addCloseListener(e -> resetGrids());
if (tableauRamassagePorteAPorte.getEditor().isOpen()) {
tableauRamassagePorteAPorte.getEditor().closeEditor();
}
if (tableauHoraires.getEditor().isOpen()) {
tableauHoraires.getEditor().closeEditor();
tableauHoraires.getEditor().refresh();
}
}
Make sure that the objects in your grid have proper equals and hashcode methods and that the field(s) being edited do not influence them.
I use the PK from the database.
I made a pretty simple selenium test, where I want to open web page, clear field value, start entering text for this field, select first value from the hint drop down.
Web site is aviasales.com (I just found some site with a lot of controls, this is not an advertisement)
I did
DriverFactory.getDriver().findElement(By.id("flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en")).clear();
and it was working perfectly, I also checked via console that this is the only one object on a page like:
document.getElementById('flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en')
So, in next line I'm sending value:
DriverFactory.getDriver().findElement(By.id("flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en")).sendKeys("LAX");
but it send LAX value for both "flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en" and "flights-destination-prepop-whitelabel_en" for some reason, then i tried
DriverFactory.getDriver().findElement(By.id("//input[#id='flights-destination-prepop-whitelabel_en'][#placeholder='Destination']")).sendKeys(destinationAirport);
but I got the same result:
What could be a reason and how to fix this?
Thank you!
Yep... there's some weird behavior going on there. The site is copying whatever is entered into the first field into the second for reason I don't understand. I gave up trying to understand it and found a way around it.
Whenever I write code that I know I'm going to reuse, I put them into functions. Here's the script code
driver.navigate().to(url);
setOrigin("LAX");
setDestination("DFW");
...and since you are likely to use these repeatedly, the support functions.
public static void setOrigin(String origin)
{
WebElement e = driver.findElement(By.id("flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en"));
e.click();
e.clear();
e.sendKeys(origin);
e.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);
}
public static void setDestination(String dest)
{
WebElement e = driver.findElement(By.id("flights-destination-prepop-whitelabel_en"));
e.click();
e.clear();
e.sendKeys(dest);
e.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);
}
You can see the functions but basically I click in the field, clear the text (because usually there's something already in there), send the text, and then press to move out of the field and choose the default (first choice).
The reason of your issue is the ORIGIN and DESTINATION inputbox binded keyboard event which used to supply an autocomplete list according to your typed characters.
The binded keyborad event breaks the normal sendKeys() functionality. I met similar case in my projects and questions on StackOverFlow.
I tried input 'GSO' into DESTINATION by sendKeys('GSO'), but I get 'GGSSOO' on page after the sendKeys() complete.
To resolve your problem, we can't use sendKeys(), we have to use executeScript() to set the value by javascript in backgroud. But executeScript() won't fire keyborad event so you won't get the autocomplete list. So we need find out a way to fire keyborady event after set value by javascript.
Below code snippet worked on chrome when i tested on aviasales.com:
private void inputAirport(WebElement targetEle, String city) {
String script = "arguments[0].value = arguments[1]";
// set value by javascript in background
((JavascriptExecutor) driver).executeScript(script, targetEle, city + "6");
// wait 1s
Thread.sleep(1000);
// press backspace key to delete the last character to fire keyborad event
targetEle.sendKeys(Keys.BACK_SPACE);
// wait 2s to wait autocomplete list pop-up
Thread.sleep(2000);
// choose the first item of autocomplete list
driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("ul.mewtwo-autocomplete-list > li:nth-child(1)")).click();
}
public void inputOrigin(String city) {
WebElement target = driver.findElement(By.id("flights-origin-prepop-whitelabel_en"));
return inputAirport(target, city);
}
public void inputDestination(String city) {
WebElement target = driver.findElement(By.id("flights-origin-prepopflights-destination-prepop-whitelabel_en"));
return inputAirport(target, city);
}
I want to create a special Password Dialog for my eclipse product, which is used with an on screen keyboard.
It would be very nice, if i could use a component like the IPhone Password field. In this field, the added character is shown for a second and after the second it is converted into the '*' character for hiding the complete password.
Did a jar/library exists, this is implemented in AWT or SWT?
Edit:
I could trying to implement it from scratch (SWT), but for these i would have to create a very special and complicated KeyListener for the password Text component. I would have to catch the keyReleased event and set the characters manually into the field.
So far i was not able to find any libraries in the web. Suggestion how this can be implemented are welcome too.
This is not really a full answer, rather than a discussion starter and I don't know of any out-of-the-box widgets which can do that.
My first idea was to inheriting the swt Text widget and overriding setEchoChar et al., but after looking at the code this doesn't really seem feasible, because this method is merely a wrapper around:
OS.SendMessage (handle, OS.EM_SETPASSWORDCHAR, echo, 0);
If anyone would know the OS specific low-level implementation, that might be helpful.
Anyway, on to a different approach. I would avoid the KeyListener and use a ModifyListener on the Text-Widget.
void addModifyListener(ModifyListener listener)
You could then build a wrapper which catches the entered text using this listener, appends it to a locally held string/stringbuffer (or e.g. the Eclipse Preferencestore) and send a modified full text to the Text widget using setText(String s), replacing all characters except the last by an echo character (e.g. *).
myText.setText((s.substring(0, s.length()-1)).replaceAll("[\\s\\S]","*")+s.charAt(s.length()-1));
This is a bit of a kludge, but it should work.
The not so straightforward bit is the 1 second timing, without stalling the whole view...
Depending on what Jules said the following code is some kind of working.
The code is quick and fast and i would like to have a more thread safe solution.
originalString = new StringBuffer();
passwordField.addModifyListener(new ModifyListener() {
public void modifyText(ModifyEvent e) {
synchronized (passwordField) {
String s = passwordField.getText();
String newS = s.replaceAll("[\\s\\S]", "*");
if (newS.equals(s)) {
while (originalString.length() > s.length()) {
originalString = originalString.deleteCharAt(originalString.length() - 1);
}
usernameField.setText(originalString.toString());
return;
}
if (originalString.length() < s.length()) {
originalString.append(s.charAt(s.length() - 1));
}
try {
Thread.sleep(500);
} catch (InterruptedException e1) {
}
passwordField.setText(newS);
}
passwordField.redraw();
passwordField.setSelection(passwordField.getText().length());
}
});
Key Events are cached, so you can add more characters, also when the Thread is waiting.
Another Problem is the Cursor handling. the Cursor always moves to the first position, when you set the Text.
I think when this is working it is very near to the iphone solution.
In my application I want the user to save any changes before he leaves a tab (implemented as CTabFolder).
I tried to handle SelectionEvent, but it fires after the tab has been changed (so why does it even have a doit field? Does it fire before change for some other controls?)
Looking on Bugzilla, I've found https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=193453 and https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=193064, neither of which is fixed.
Since this requirement is probably common, does anybody have a workaround?
I have a workaround that works with org.eclipse.ui.part.MultiPageEditorPart which is backed by a CTabFolder. I'll adapt it for a straight CTabFolder implementation.
First off use the selection listener:
tabFolder.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
pageChange(tabFolder.indexOf((CTabItem) e.item));
}
});
Then I implement pageChange() like this:
protected void pageChange(int newPageIndex) {
boolean changingPages = this.changingPages;
this.changingPages = true;
int oldPageIndex = tabFolder.getSelectionIndex();
if (isDirty() && !changingPages) {
tabFolder.setSelection(oldPageIndex);
if (canChangePages()) {
tabFolder.setSelection(newPageIndex);
}
}
this.changingPages = false;
}
In canChangePages() I pop up a do you want to save dialog and give the user an opportunity to select yes, no, or cancel. Yes saves the info and returns true. No reverts the info to the last saved state and returns true. Cancel simply returns false. You may simply want to try saving and return false only if the save fails.
It may look weird that I switch back to the old page before calling canChangePages(). This call executes quickly so it gives the illusion the tab never switched. No matter how long canChangePages() takes the user will not see a tab change unless it is approved by that method.
I am trying to write a JTextPane which supports some sort of coloring: as the user is typing the text, I am running some code that colors the text according to a certain algorithm. This works well.
The problem is that the coloring operations is registered with the undo manager (a DefaultDocumentEvent with EventType.CHANGE). So when the user clicks undo the coloring disappears. Only at the second undo request the text itself is rolled back.
(Note that the coloring algorithm is somewhat slow so I cannot color the text as it is being inserted).
If I try to prevent the CHANGE events from reaching the undo manager I get an exception after several undo requests: this is because the document contents are not conforming to what the undoable-edit object expects.
Any ideas?
You could intercept the CHANGE edits and wrap each one in another UndoableEdit whose isSignificant() method returns false, before adding it to the UndoManager. Then each Undo command will undo the most recent INSERT or REMOVE edit, plus every CHANGE edit that occurred since then.
Ultimately, I think you'll find that the styling mechanism provided by JTextPane/StyledDocument/etc. is too limited for this kind of thing. It's slow, it uses too much memory, and it's based on the same Element tree that's used to keep track of the lexical structure of the document. It's okay (I guess) for applications in which the styles are applied by the user, like word processors, but not for a syntax highlighter that has to update the styles constantly as the user types.
There are several examples out there of syntax-highlighting editors based on custom implementations of the Swing JTextComponent, View and Document classes. Some, like JEdit, re-implement practically the whole javax.swing.text package, but I don't think you need to go that far.
How are you trying to prevent the CHANGE events from reaching the undo manager?
Can you not send the UndoManager a lastEdit().die() call immediately after the CHANGE is queued?
I can only assume how you are doing the text colouring. If you are doing it in the StyledDocuments change character attribute method you can get the undo listener and temporarily deregister it from the document for that operation and then once the colour change has finshed then you can reregister the listener.
Should be fine for what you are trying to do there.
hope that helps
I have just been through this problem. Here is my solution:
private class UndoManagerFix extends UndoManager {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 5335352180435980549L;
#Override
public synchronized void undo() throws CannotUndoException {
do {
UndoableEdit edit = editToBeUndone();
if (edit instanceof AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent) {
AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent event = (AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent) edit;
if (event.getType() == EventType.CHANGE) {
super.undo();
continue;
}
}
break;
} while (true);
super.undo();
}
#Override
public synchronized void redo() throws CannotRedoException {
super.redo();
int caretPosition = getCaretPosition();
do {
UndoableEdit edit = editToBeRedone();
if (edit instanceof AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent) {
AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent event = (AbstractDocument.DefaultDocumentEvent) edit;
if (event.getType() == EventType.CHANGE) {
super.redo();
continue;
}
}
break;
} while (true);
setCaretPosition(caretPosition);
}
}
It is an inner class in my custom JTextPane, so I can fix the caret position on redo.
