1 1 Graphical User Components (II) Outline JTextArea Creating a Customized Subclass of JPanel JPanel Subclass that Handles Its Own Events Windows: Additional Notes Using Menus with Frames

2 2 JTextArea –Area for manipulating multiple lines of text –extends JTextComponent..\..\..\212-winter-2005\week11\textarea_18

3 3 Creating a Customized Subclass of JPanel Extend JPanel to create new components –Dedicated drawing area Method paintComponent of class JComponent..\..\week11\panel_demo_17

4 4 Windows: Additional Notes JFrame –Windows with title bar and border –Subclass of java.awt.Frame Subclass of java.awt.Window –Heavyweight component –Three operations when user closes window DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE HIDE_ON_CLOSE

5 5 Using Menus with Frames Menus –Allows for performing actions with cluttering GUI –Contained by menu bar JMenuBar –Comprised of menu items JMenuItem..\..\week12\Menu_1

6 6 Introduction Graphics Contexts and Graphics Objects Color Control Font Control Drawing Lines, Rectangles and Ovals Drawing Arcs Drawing Polygons and Polylines Graphics and Java 2D

7 7 12.1 Introduction Java’s graphics capabilities –Drawing 2D shapes –Controlling colors –Controlling fonts Java 2D API –More sophisticated graphics capabilities Drawing custom 2D shapes Filling shapes with colors and patterns

8 8 Classes and interfaces used in this chapter from Java’s original graphics capabilities and from the Java2D API. Classes and interfaces from the Java2D API that appear in package java.awt Object Color Component Font FontMetrics Graphics Polygon Graphics2D interface java.awt.Paint interface java.awt.Shape interface java.awt.Stroke Classes from the Java2D API that appear in package java.awt.geom GradientPaint BasicStroke TexturePaint RectangularShape GeneralPath Line2D RoundRectangle2D Arc2D Ellipse2D Rectangle2D

9 9 Introduction Java’s coordinate system –Scheme for identifying all points on screen –Upper-left corner has coordinates (0,0) –Coordinate point composed of x-coordinate and y-coordinate

10 10 Java coordinate system. Units are measured in pixels

11 11 Graphics Contexts and Graphics Objects Graphics context –Enables drawing on screen –Graphics object manages graphics context Controls how information is drawn –Class Graphics is abstract Cannot be instantiated Contributes to Java’s portability –Class Component method paint takes Graphics object public void paint( Graphics g ) –Called through method repaint

12 12 Color Control Class Color –Defines methods and constants for manipulating colors –Colors are created from red, green and blue components RGB values

13 13 Color constants and their RGB values

14 14 Color methods and color-related Graphics methods..\..\week12\Color_2..\..\week12\Color_3

15 15 Font Control Class Font –Contains methods and constants for font control –Font constructor takes three arguments Font name –Monospaced, SansSerif, Serif, etc. Font style –Font.PLAIN, Font.ITALIC and Font.BOLD Font size –Measured in points (1/72 of inch)

16 16 Font -related methods and constants

17 17 Font -related methods and constants..\..\week12\Fond_4

18 18 Font Control Font metrics –Height –Descent (amount character dips below baseline) –Ascent (amount character rises above baseline) –Leading (difference between descent and ascent)

19 19 Font metrics

20 20 FontMetrics and Graphics methods for obtaining font metrics..\..\week12\FontMetrics_5

21 21 Drawing Lines, Rectangles and Ovals Class Graphics –Provides methods for drawing lines, rectangles and ovals All drawing methods require parameters width and height

22 22 Graphics methods that draw lines, rectangles and ovals

23 23 Graphics methods that draw lines, rectangles and ovals..\..\week12\Lines_6

24 24 Arc width and arc height for rounded rectangles

25 25 Oval bounded by a rectangle

26 26 Drawing Arcs Arc –Portion of oval –Measured in degrees –Sweeps the number of degrees in arc angle –Sweep starts at starting angle Counterclockwise sweep is measure in positive degrees Clockwise sweep is measure in negative degrees

27 27 Positive and negative arc angles 90° 0°180° 270° 90° 0°180° 270° Positive anglesNegative angles

28 28 Graphics methods for drawing arcs..\..\week12\Arc_7

29 29 Drawing Polygons and Polylines Class Polygon –Polygons Multisided shapes –Polylines Series of connected points

30 30 Graphics methods for drawing polygons and class Polygon methods

31 31 Graphics methods for drawing polygons and class Polygon methods..\..\week12\Polygons_8

32 32 12.8 Java2D API Java 2D API –Provides advanced 2D graphics capabilities java.awt java.awt.image java.awt.color java.awt.font java.awt.geom java.awt.print java.awt.image.renderable –Uses class java.awt.Graphics2D Extends class java.awt.Graphics
