Print blocks in sfml

I'm doing a program in java, and I want pass at the new window when I click the button but when I run the program it automatically open me the 2 views also if I don't press the button.What can I do for fix this problem?
Main:
package com.SimplyGeometry.src.tiles;
import com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows.SelectWindow;
import com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows.StartWindow;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
String title = "SimplyGeometry";
int WIDTH = 1320, HEIGHT = 840;
StartWindow stw = new StartWindow(/*WIDTH, HEIGHT, title*/);
}
}
Vew1:
package com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows;
import javax.swing.*;
import Actions.Actions;
public class StartWindow implements ActionListener {
public static JFrame window;
SelectWindow sw;
public StartWindow(/*int WIDTH, int HEIGHT, String title*/) {
window = new JFrame("SimplyGeometry");
window.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
window.setResizable(false);
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
panel.setLayout(null);
panel.setBounds(0, 0, 1320, 840);
panel.setBackground(Color.CYAN);
JLabel label = new JLabel();
label.setIcon(new ImageIcon("/Users/gaetanodonnarumma/Documents/workspace/SimplyGeometry(Complete)/src/Images/titolo.png"));
label.setSize(650, 250);
label.setLocation(320, 100);
JButton button = new JButton("Start");
button.setBackground(Color.white);
button.setForeground(Color.black);
button.setSize(350, 100);
button.setLocation(455, 450);
button.setEnabled(true);
button.addActionListener(new Actions());
window.add(panel);
panel.add(label);
window.validate();
panel.add(button);
window.setVisible(true);
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}
View 2:
package com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import javax.swing.*;
public class SelectWindow {
public static JFrame window;
public SelectWindow(/*int WIDTH, int HEIGHT, String title*/) {
window = new JFrame("SimplyGeometry");
window.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setMaximumSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setMinimumSize(new Dimension(1320, 840));
window.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
window.setLayout(null);
window.setVisible(true);
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}
the actionListener class:
package Actions;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows.SelectWindow;
import com.SimplyGeometry.src.windows.StartWindow;
public class Actions implements ActionListener {
public Actions() {
SelectWindow window = new SelectWindow();
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
}
}

It is happening because of the line below:
public StartWindow(
...
button.addActionListener(new Actions());
...
}
In the constructor of the Actions, SelectWindow is creating. So it is coming to the screen after you create StartWindow.
public Actions() {
SelectWindow window = new SelectWindow();
}
To solve the problem create SelectWindow in actionPerformed.
public class Actions implements ActionListener {
public Actions() {
//SelectWindow window = new SelectWindow();
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
SelectWindow window = new SelectWindow();
}
}

Making a single component full screen

I'm trying to make a JPanel go full screen when you click a button, and back again when you press escape.
I've managed to get the window to go full screen, but because of the whole thing about adding components removing them from other containers, I end up with a blank JPanel.
I chose to make a separate JFrame to render full screen, the class of which is as follows (note that this is an inner class, so myPanel refers to a panel that already exists in MyJFrame):
public class FullScreen extends JFrame {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private GraphicsDevice device;
private boolean isFullScreen;
public FullScreen() {
this.setContentPane(myPanel);
this.setUndecorated(true);
// Fullscreen return
this.addKeyListener(new KeyListener() {
#Override
public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
// Exit fullscreen when ESC pressed
if (e.getKeyCode() == KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE) {
exitFullScreen();
}
}
#Override
public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) {
}
#Override
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
}
});
}
public void enterFullScreen() {
if (!isFullScreen) {
// Get the current device
GraphicsEnvironment graphicsEnvironment =
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
device = graphicsEnvironment.getDefaultScreenDevice();
if (device.isFullScreenSupported()) {
// Make the current window invisible
MyJFrame.this.setVisible(false);
// Set the full screen window
device.setFullScreenWindow(this);
isFullScreen = true;
}
}
}
public void exitFullScreen() {
if (isFullScreen) {
// Reset the full screen window
device.setFullScreenWindow(null);
MyJFrame.this.setVisible(true);
isFullScreen = false;
}
}
}
Any other bright ideas on how to accomplish this?

Something like this seems to do it alright (to be improved and adapted):
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Container;
import java.awt.Window;

import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JComponent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.SwingUtilities;
class TestFullScreenPanel {
private static class FSPanel implements ActionListener {
private JPanel panel;
private JButton button;
private boolean fullScreen = false;
private Container previousContentPane;
public FSPanel(String label) {
panel = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());
button = new JButton(label);
button.addActionListener(this);
panel.add(button);
}
public JComponent getComponent() {
return panel;
}
#Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
if (!fullScreen) {
goFullScreen();
} else {
ungoFullScreen();
}
}
private void goFullScreen() {
Window w = SwingUtilities.windowForComponent(button);
if (w instanceof JFrame) {
JFrame frame = (JFrame) w;
frame.dispose();
frame.setUndecorated(true);
frame.getGraphicsConfiguration().getDevice().setFullScreenWindow(w);
previousContentPane = frame.getContentPane();
frame.setContentPane(button);
frame.revalidate();
frame.repaint();
frame.setVisible(true);
fullScreen = true;
}
}
private void ungoFullScreen() {
Window w = SwingUtilities.windowForComponent(button);
if (w instanceof JFrame) {
JFrame frame = (JFrame) w;
frame.dispose();
frame.setUndecorated(false);
frame.getGraphicsConfiguration().getDevice().setFullScreenWindow(null);
frame.setContentPane(previousContentPane);
panel.add(button);
frame.revalidate();
frame.repaint();
frame.setVisible(true);
fullScreen = false;
}
}
}
TestFullScreenPanel() {
final JFrame f = new JFrame(TestFullScreenPanel.class.getSimpleName());
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
f.add(new FSPanel("Center").getComponent(), BorderLayout.CENTER);
f.add(new FSPanel("North").getComponent(), BorderLayout.NORTH);
f.add(new FSPanel("South").getComponent(), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
f.add(new FSPanel("West").getComponent(), BorderLayout.WEST);
f.add(new FSPanel("East").getComponent(), BorderLayout.EAST);
f.setSize(800, 600);
f.setLocationByPlatform(true);
f.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
// start the GUI on the EDT
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
new TestFullScreenPanel();
}
});
}
}
PS: disposal of the JFrame is only there to change the setUndecorated state.

don't extend JFrame, create this Object an local variable
JFrame by default never react to the KeyEvents, set KeyListener to the JPanel
don't to use KeyListener for Swing JComponents, otherwise have to JPanel#setFocusable
use KeyBindings instead of KeyListener
use Escape by #camickr

if (!isFullScreen) {
// Get the current device

device = config.getDevice();
// Remove the panel from the wrapper
myWrapper.remove(myPanel);

frame.getContentPane().add(myPanel);
// Set the full screen window
device.setFullScreenWindow(frame);
isFullScreen = true;
}
}
public void exitFullScreen() {
if (isFullScreen) {
// Remove the fractal from the full screen frame
frame.getContentPane().remove(myPanel);
// Add the panel back to the wrapper
myWrapper.add(myPanel);
// Disable full screen
device.setFullScreenWindow(null);
// Dispose frame

// Revalidate window
FullScreenExample.this.validate();
isFullScreen = false;
}
}
}

Changing/setting the height of a JTextField in a BorderLayout

I'm trying to set the height of a JTextField. At present its the full size of the displayed JFrame. Any ideas how I set the height to 50?
Edit: Here is the amended code along with screenshot thanks!
public class Display extends JFrame {
private DrawCanvas canvas;
private JTextField Altitude;
private JTextField TASpeed;
private JLabel altButton;
private int countA = 0;
private int countS = 0;
private int Bcount1 = 0;
public String Ccount = Integer.toString(Bcount1);
public Display() {
canvas = new DrawCanvas();
canvas.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(CANVAS_WIDTH, CANVAS_HEIGHT));
canvas.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
Container cp = getContentPane();
cp.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
cp.add(canvas, BorderLayout.LINE_START);
//here are the 2 side fields![enter image description here][2]
Altitude = new JTextField("0", 5);
Altitude.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.CENTER);
Altitude.setEditable(false);
Altitude.setOpaque(false);
Altitude.setFont(Altitude.getFont().deriveFont(25f));
TASpeed = new JTextField("0", 5);
TASpeed.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.CENTER);
TASpeed.setEditable(false);
TASpeed.setOpaque(false);
TASpeed.setFont(Altitude.getFont().deriveFont(25f));
altButton = new JLabel();
altButton.setText(Ccount);
canvas.add(altButton, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
canvas.add(Altitude, BorderLayout.LINE_END);
canvas.add(TASpeed, BorderLayout.LINE_START);
canvas.add(new JLabel(Ccount), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setTitle("FLIGHT DISPLAY");
pack();
setVisible(true);
requestFocus();
}
class DrawCanvas extends JPanel {
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
setBackground(CANVAS_BACKGROUND);
g.setColor(GROUND_COLOR);
g.drawString(Ccount, 100, 100);
}
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
new Display();
}
});
}
}

As #kleopatra correctly comments, the JTextField can calculate it's own preferred size based on the platform designer's choice of Font. This example changes the size.
import java.awt.BorderLayout;
import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.EventQueue;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
/** #see http://stackoverflow.com/a/14734937/230513 */
public class Test {
private void display() {
JFrame f = new JFrame("Test");
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
JTextField tfCount = new JTextField("42", 8);
tfCount.setHorizontalAlignment(JTextField.CENTER);
tfCount.setFont(tfCount.getFont().deriveFont(50f));
f.add(tfCount, BorderLayout.NORTH);
f.add(new JPanel() { //placeholder
#Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
return new Dimension(320, 240);
}
}, BorderLayout.CENTER);
f.pack();
f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
f.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
new Test().display();
}
});
}
}

How to draw shape by right clicking a panel in Swing?

I am trying to create a swing program. In my program I want to achieve something like this: right click on a panel and select the menu "Draw rectangle" and program should draw a very simple rectangle on the panel. Here is my code:
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.border.BevelBorder;
public class MainWindow extends JFrame {
JFrame frame = null;
AboutDialog aboutDialog = null;
JLabel statusLabel = null; //label on statusPanel
public MainWindow() {
frame = new JFrame("Project");
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
//MENUS
JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar(); //menubar
JMenu menuDosya = new JMenu("Dosya"); //menus on menubar
JMenu menuYardim = new JMenu("Yardım"); //menus in menus
menuBar.add(menuDosya);
menuBar.add(menuYardim);
JMenuItem menuItemCikis = new JMenuItem("Çıkış", KeyEvent.VK_Q); //dosya menus
menuItemCikis.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
System.exit(0);
}
});
menuDosya.add(menuItemCikis);
JMenuItem menuItemYardim = new JMenuItem("Hakkında", KeyEvent.VK_H); //hakkinda menus
menuItemYardim.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
JDialog f = new AboutDialog(new JFrame());
f.show();
}
});
menuYardim.add(menuItemYardim);
frame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
//TOOLBAR
JToolBar toolbar = new JToolBar();
JButton exitButton = new JButton("Kapat");
toolbar.add(exitButton);
//STATUSBAR
JPanel statusPanel = new JPanel();
statusPanel.setBorder(new BevelBorder(BevelBorder.LOWERED));
frame.add(statusPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
statusPanel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(frame.getWidth(), 20));
statusPanel.setLayout(new BoxLayout(statusPanel, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));
statusLabel = new JLabel("Ready.");
statusLabel.setHorizontalAlignment(SwingConstants.LEFT);
statusPanel.add(statusLabel);
//MAIN CONTENT OF THE PROGRAM
final JPanel mainContentPanel = new JPanel();
//RIGHT CLICK MENU
final JPopupMenu menuSag = new JPopupMenu("RightClickMenu");
JMenuItem menuRightClickRectangle = new JMenuItem("draw rectangle");
menuRightClickRectangle.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
//CircleShape cs=new CircleShape();
mainContentPanel.add(new CircleShape()); //trying to draw.
mainContentPanel.repaint();
//mainContentPanel.repaint(); boyle olacak.
}
});
JMenuItem menuRightClickCircle = new JMenuItem("Daire çiz");
menuSag.add(menuRightClickRectangle);
menuSag.add(menuRightClickCircle);
mainContentPanel.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
if (e.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON3) {
menuSag.show(e.getComponent(), e.getX(), e.getY());
statusLabel.setText("X=" + e.getX() + " " + "Y=" + e.getY());
}
}
});
JButton west = new JButton("West");
JButton center = new JButton("Center");
JPanel content = new JPanel(); //framein icindeki genel panel. en genel panel bu.
content.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
content.add(toolbar, BorderLayout.NORTH);
content.add(statusPanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
content.add(west, BorderLayout.WEST);
content.add(mainContentPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.setContentPane(content);
frame.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 300));
frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
frame.pack();
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}
The problem is nothing is drawn on the panel. I guess there is an event loss in the program but i don't know how to solve this issue.

Please modify the code in the following way. Add a new class like this:
class MainPanel extends JPanel {
private List<Rectangle> rectangles = new ArrayList<Rectangle>();
private void addRectangle(Rectangle rectangle) {
rectangles.add(rectangle);
}
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
for (Rectangle rectangle : rectangles) {
g2.drawRect(rectangle.x, rectangle.y, rectangle.width, rectangle.height);
}
}
}
Then, instead of
final JPanel mainContentPanel = new JPanel();
you should do:
final MainPanel mainContentPanel = new MainPanel();
And the action listener for the menu item becomes something like this:
menuRightClickRectangle.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event) {
// TODO: add your own logic here, currently a hardcoded rectangle
mainContentPanel.addRectangle(new Rectangle(10, 10, 100, 50));
mainContentPanel.repaint();
}
});

You can't do that by calling add method.To draw a shape you will have to override paintComponent method:
Example of drawing rectangle:
public void paintComponent(Graphics g){
g.setColor(Color.RED);
g.fillRect(50,50,50,50);
}

How to set BackGround color to a divider in JSplitPane

I have created a divider in JSplitPane. I am unable to set the color of divider. I want to set the color of divider. Please help me how to set color of that divider.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class SplitPaneDemo {

JPanel left, right;
JSplitPane pane;
int lastDividerLocation = -1;
public static void main(String[] args) {

Or, since the divider is a container, you can do the following:
dividerContainer = (BasicSplitPaneDivider) splitPane.getComponent(2);
Component leftBtn = dividerContainer.getComponent(0);
Component rightBtn = dividerContainer.getComponent(1);
dividerContainer.setBackground(Color.white);
dividerContainer.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(0, 4, 0, 4));
dividerContainer.setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER, 0, 0));
dividerContainer.add(toolbar);
dividerContainer.setDividerSize(toolbar.getPreferredSize().height);

This code works for me:
splitPane.setUI(new BasicSplitPaneUI() {
public BasicSplitPaneDivider createDefaultDivider() {
return new BasicSplitPaneDivider(this) {
public void setBorder(Border b) {
}
#Override
public void paint(Graphics g) {
g.setColor(Color.GREEN);
g.fillRect(0, 0, getSize().width, getSize().height);
super.paint(g);
}
};
}
});
splitPane.setBorder(null);
You can change divider color "g.setColor(new Color(R,G,B))".

This worked for me fine.First you are creating JFrame with it's normal methods such as setDefaultCloseOperation(), setBounds(), getContentPane(). Then create an object from your class then use that to call all the other methods through out the program, in this case I created object called app. One thing you have to keep in mind is that don't forget to use ActionListener e.
Also color changes must go with setBackground() function, while you getting the values from getSource() for the color change.
