Set the amount of rows JList show (Java)
- by Alex Cheng
Hi all.
Problem: I have a method that creates a list from the parsed ArrayList. I manage to show the list in the GUI, without scrollbar. However, I am having problem setting it to show only the size of ArrayList. Meaning, say if the size is 6, there should only be 6 rows in the shown List. Below is the code that I am using. I tried setting the visibleRowCount as below but it does not work. I tried printing out the result and it shows that the change is made.
private void createSuggestionList(ArrayList<String> str) {
int visibleRowCount = str.size();
System.out.println("visibleRowCount " + visibleRowCount);
listForSuggestion = new JList(str.toArray());
listForSuggestion.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.SINGLE_SELECTION);
listForSuggestion.setSelectedIndex(0);
listForSuggestion.setVisibleRowCount(visibleRowCount);
System.out.println(listForSuggestion.getVisibleRowCount());
listScrollPane = new JScrollPane(listForSuggestion);
MouseListener mouseListener = new MouseAdapter() {
@Override
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent mouseEvent) {
JList theList = (JList) mouseEvent.getSource();
if (mouseEvent.getClickCount() == 2) {
int index = theList.locationToIndex(mouseEvent.getPoint());
if (index >= 0) {
Object o = theList.getModel().getElementAt(index);
System.out.println("Double-clicked on: " + o.toString());
}
}
}
};
listForSuggestion.addMouseListener(mouseListener);
textPane.add(listScrollPane);
repaint();
}
To summarize: I want the JList to show as many rows as the size of the parsed ArrayList, without a scrollbar.
Any ideas? Please help. Thanks. Please let me know if a picture of the problem is needed in case I did not phrase my question correctly.
