Package Summary  Overview Summary

class:JViewport [CHANGED]
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible 
    public class JViewport
extends JComponent
implements Accessible
    The "viewport" or "porthole" through which you see the underlying information. When you scroll, what moves is the viewport. It is like peering through a camera's viewfinder. Moving the viewfinder upwards brings new things into view at the top of the picture and loses things that were at the bottom.

    By default, JViewport is opaque. To change this, use the setOpaque method.

    NOTE:We have implemented a faster scrolling algorithm that does not require a buffer to draw in. The algorithm works as follows:

    1. The view and parent view andare checked to see if they are JComponents, if they aren't, stop and repaint the whole viewport.
    2. If the viewport is obscured by an ancestor, stop and repaint the whole viewport.
    3. Compute the region that will become visible, if it is as big as the viewport, stop and repaint the whole view region.
    4. Obtain the ancestor Window's graphics and do a copyArea on the scrolled region.
    5. Message the view to repaint the newly visible region.
    6. The next time paint is invoked on the viewport, if the clip region is smaller than the viewport size a timer is kicked off to repaint the whole region.
    In general this approach is much faster. Compared to the backing store approach this avoids the overhead of maintaining an offscreen buffer and having to do two copyAreas. Compared to the non backing store case this approach will greatly reduce the painted region.

    This approach can cause slower times than the backing store approach when the viewport is obscured by another window, or partially offscreen. When another window obscures the viewport the copyArea will copy garbage and a paint event will be generated by the system to inform us we need to paint the newly exposed region. The only way to handle this is to repaint the whole viewport, which can cause slower performance than the backing store case. In most applications very rarely will the user be scrolling while the viewport is obscured by another window or offscreen, so this optimization is usually worth the performance hit when obscured.

    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 JavaBeans™ has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

field:isViewSizeSet [NONE]

  • isViewSizeSet

    protected boolean isViewSizeSet
    True when the viewport dimensions have been determined. The default is false.

field:lastPaintPosition [NONE]

  • lastPaintPosition

    protected Point lastPaintPosition
    The last viewPosition that we've painted, so we know how much of the backing store image is valid.

field:backingStore [NONE]

  • backingStore

    @Deprecated
protected boolean backingStore
    Deprecated.
    As of Java 2 platform v1.3
    True when this viewport is maintaining an offscreen image of its contents, so that some scrolling can take place using fast "bit-blit" operations instead of by accessing the view object to construct the display. The default is false.
    See Also:
    setScrollMode(int)

field:backingStoreImage [NONE]

  • backingStoreImage

    protected transient Image backingStoreImage
    The view image used for a backing store.

field:scrollUnderway [NONE]

  • scrollUnderway

    protected boolean scrollUnderway
    The scrollUnderway flag is used for components like JList. When the downarrow key is pressed on a JList and the selected cell is the last in the list, the scrollpane autoscrolls. Here, the old selected cell needs repainting and so we need a flag to make the viewport do the optimized painting only when there is an explicit call to setViewPosition(Point). When setBounds is called through other routes, the flag is off and the view repaints normally. Another approach would be to remove this from the JViewport class and have the JList manage this case by using setBackingStoreEnabled. The default is false.

field:BLIT_SCROLL_MODE [NONE]

  • BLIT_SCROLL_MODE

    public static final int BLIT_SCROLL_MODE
    Use graphics.copyArea to implement scrolling. This is the fastest for most applications.
    Since:
    1.3
    See Also:
    setScrollMode(int), Constant Field Values

field:BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE [NONE]

  • BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE

    public static final int BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE
    Draws viewport contents into an offscreen image. This was previously the default mode for JTable. This mode may offer advantages over "blit mode" in some cases, but it requires a large chunk of extra RAM.
    Since:
    1.3
    See Also:
    setScrollMode(int), Constant Field Values

field:SIMPLE_SCROLL_MODE [NONE]

  • SIMPLE_SCROLL_MODE

    public static final int SIMPLE_SCROLL_MODE
    This mode uses the very simple method of redrawing the entire contents of the scrollpane each time it is scrolled. This was the default behavior in Swing 1.0 and Swing 1.1. Either of the other two options will provide better performance in most cases.
    Since:
    1.3
    See Also:
    setScrollMode(int), Constant Field Values

constructor:<init>() [NONE]

  • JViewport

    public JViewport()
    Creates a JViewport.

method:getUI() [NONE]

  • getUI

    public ViewportUI getUI()
    Returns the L&F object that renders this component.
    Overrides:
    getUI in class JComponent
    Returns:
    a ViewportUI object
    Since:
    1.3

method:setUI(javax.swing.plaf.ViewportUI) [NONE]

method:updateUI() [NONE]

method:getUIClassID() [NONE]

method:addImpl(java.awt.Component,java.lang.Object,int) [NONE]

  • addImpl

    protected void addImpl​(Component child,
                       Object constraints,
                       int index)
    Sets the JViewport's one lightweight child, which can be null. (Since there is only one child which occupies the entire viewport, the constraints and index arguments are ignored.)
    Overrides:
    addImpl in class Container
    Parameters:
    child - the lightweight child of the viewport
    constraints - the constraints to be respected
    index - the index
    See Also:
    setView(java.awt.Component)

method:remove(java.awt.Component) [NONE]

method:scrollRectToVisible(java.awt.Rectangle) [NONE]

  • scrollRectToVisible

    public void scrollRectToVisible​(Rectangle contentRect)
    Scrolls the view so that Rectangle within the view becomes visible.

    This attempts to validate the view before scrolling if the view is currently not valid - isValid returns false. To avoid excessive validation when the containment hierarchy is being created this will not validate if one of the ancestors does not have a peer, or there is no validate root ancestor, or one of the ancestors is not a Window or Applet.

    Note that this method will not scroll outside of the valid viewport; for example, if contentRect is larger than the viewport, scrolling will be confined to the viewport's bounds.

    Overrides:
    scrollRectToVisible in class JComponent
    Parameters:
    contentRect - the Rectangle to display
    See Also:
    JComponent.isValidateRoot(), Component.isValid()

method:setBorder(javax.swing.border.Border) [NONE]

  • setBorder

    public final void setBorder​(Border border)
    The viewport "scrolls" its child (called the "view") by the normal parent/child clipping (typically the view is moved in the opposite direction of the scroll). A non-null border, or non-zero insets, isn't supported, to prevent the geometry of this component from becoming complex enough to inhibit subclassing. To create a JViewport with a border, add it to a JPanel that has a border.

    Note: If border is non-null, this method will throw an exception as borders are not supported on a JViewPort.

    Overrides:
    setBorder in class JComponent
    Parameters:
    border - the Border to set
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - this method is not implemented
    See Also:
    Border, CompoundBorder

method:getInsets() [NONE]

method:getInsets(java.awt.Insets) [NONE]

  • getInsets

    @BeanProperty(expert=true)
public final Insets getInsets​(Insets insets)
    Returns an Insets object containing this JViewports inset values. The passed-in Insets object will be reinitialized, and all existing values within this object are overwritten.
    Overrides:
    getInsets in class JComponent
    Parameters:
    insets - the Insets object which can be reused
    Returns:
    this viewports inset values
    See Also:
    getInsets()

method:isOptimizedDrawingEnabled() [NONE]

  • isOptimizedDrawingEnabled

    public boolean isOptimizedDrawingEnabled()
    The JViewport overrides the default implementation of this method (in JComponent) to return false. This ensures that the drawing machinery will call the Viewport's paint implementation rather than messaging the JViewport's children directly.
    Overrides:
    isOptimizedDrawingEnabled in class JComponent
    Returns:
    false

method:isPaintingOrigin() [NONE]

  • isPaintingOrigin

    protected boolean isPaintingOrigin()
    Returns true if scroll mode is a BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE to cause painting to originate from JViewport, or one of its ancestors. Otherwise returns false.
    Overrides:
    isPaintingOrigin in class JComponent
    Returns:
    true if scroll mode is a BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE.
    See Also:
    JComponent.isPaintingOrigin()

method:paint(java.awt.Graphics) [NONE]

method:reshape(int,int,int,int) [NONE]

  • reshape

    public void reshape​(int x,
                    int y,
                    int w,
                    int h)
    Sets the bounds of this viewport. If the viewport's width or height has changed, fire a StateChanged event.
    Overrides:
    reshape in class JComponent
    Parameters:
    x - left edge of the origin
    y - top edge of the origin
    w - width in pixels
    h - height in pixels
    See Also:
    JComponent.reshape(int, int, int, int)

method:setScrollMode(int) [NONE]

  • setScrollMode

    @BeanProperty(bound=false,
              enumerationValues={"JViewport.BLIT_SCROLL_MODE","JViewport.BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE","JViewport.SIMPLE_SCROLL_MODE"},
              description="Method of moving contents for incremental scrolls.")
public void setScrollMode​(int mode)
    Used to control the method of scrolling the viewport contents. You may want to change this mode to get maximum performance for your use case.
    Parameters:
    mode - one of the following values:
    • JViewport.BLIT_SCROLL_MODE
    • JViewport.BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE
    • JViewport.SIMPLE_SCROLL_MODE

method:isBackingStoreEnabled() [NONE]

  • isBackingStoreEnabled

    @Deprecated
public boolean isBackingStoreEnabled()
    Deprecated.
    As of Java 2 platform v1.3, replaced by getScrollMode().
    Returns true if this viewport is maintaining an offscreen image of its contents.
    Returns:
    true if scrollMode is BACKINGSTORE_SCROLL_MODE

method:setBackingStoreEnabled(boolean) [NONE]

  • setBackingStoreEnabled

    @Deprecated
public void setBackingStoreEnabled​(boolean enabled)
    Deprecated.
    As of Java 2 platform v1.3, replaced by setScrollMode().
    If true if this viewport will maintain an offscreen image of its contents. The image is used to reduce the cost of small one dimensional changes to the viewPosition. Rather than repainting the entire viewport we use Graphics.copyArea to effect some of the scroll.
    Parameters:
    enabled - if true, maintain an offscreen backing store
