class:JToolBar [NONE]
  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, SwingConstants 
    @JavaBean(defaultProperty="UI",
          description="A component which displays commonly used controls or Actions.")
public class JToolBar
extends JComponent
implements SwingConstants, Accessible
    JToolBar provides a component that is useful for displaying commonly used Actions or controls. For examples and information on using tool bars see How to Use Tool Bars , a section in The Java Tutorial .

    With most look and feels, the user can drag out a tool bar into a separate window (unless the floatable property is set to false). For drag-out to work correctly, it is recommended that you add JToolBar instances to one of the four "sides" of a container whose layout manager is a BorderLayout, and do not add children to any of the other four "sides".

    Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy .

    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.

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

  • getComponentIndex

    public int getComponentIndex​(Component c)
    Returns the index of the specified component. (Note: Separators occupy index positions.)
    Parameters:
    c - the Component to find
    Returns:
    an integer indicating the component's position, where 0 is first

method:getComponentAtIndex(int) [NONE]

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

  • setMargin

    @BeanProperty(expert=true,
              description="The margin between the tool bar\'s border and contents")
public void setMargin​(Insets m)
    Sets the margin between the tool bar's border and its buttons. Setting to null causes the tool bar to use the default margins. The tool bar's default Border object uses this value to create the proper margin. However, if a non-default border is set on the tool bar, it is that Border object's responsibility to create the appropriate margin space (otherwise this property will effectively be ignored).
    Parameters:
    m - an Insets object that defines the space between the border and the buttons
    See Also:
    Insets

method:getMargin() [NONE]

    public Insets getMargin()
    Returns the margin between the tool bar's border and its buttons.
    Returns:
    an Insets object containing the margin values
    See Also:
    Insets

method:setBorderPainted(boolean) [NONE]

  • setBorderPainted

    @BeanProperty(expert=true,
              description="Does the tool bar paint its borders?")
public void setBorderPainted​(boolean b)
    Sets the borderPainted property, which is true if the border should be painted. The default value for this property is true. Some look and feels might not implement painted borders; they will ignore this property.
    Parameters:
    b - if true, the border is painted

    isBorderPainted()

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

method:isFloatable() [NONE]

    Sets the floatable property, which must be true for the user to move the tool bar. Typically, a floatable tool bar can be dragged into a different position within the same container or out into its own window. The default value of this property is true. Some look and feels might not implement floatable tool bars; they will ignore this property.
    Parameters:
