Constructor Detail

AuxWindow

public AuxWindow(String title,
                 Component parent)

Constructs an AuxWindow.

Parameters:

title - the window basic title

parent - the parent component of the new window - may be used for positioning

AuxWindow

public AuxWindow(TopcatModel tcModel,
                 String viewName,
                 Component parent)

Constructs an AuxWindow which will watch a given table. Its title is modified as necessary if the table's label changes. This constructor is only suitable if the window is going to watch (be a view of) a single TopcatModel throughout its life.

Parameters:

tcModel - the model owned by this window

viewName - name of the type of view provided by this window

parent - parent component, may be used for window positioning

Method Detail

addHelp

protected void addHelp(String helpID)

Adds standard actions to this window, in the menu and toolbar. This method should generally be called by subclasses after they have added any other menus and toolbar buttons specific to their function, since the standard buttons appear as the last ones.

An ID can be supplied to indicate the page which should be shown in the help viewer when context-sensitive help is requested. This may be null if no change in the help page should be made (for instance if there is no help specific to this window).

Parameters:

helpID - the ID of the help item for this window

setBusy

public void setBusy(boolean busy)

Makes the window look like it's doing something. This currently modifies the cursor to be busy/normal.

Parameters:

busy - whether the window should look busy

makeVisible

public void makeVisible()

Ensures that this window is posted in a visible fashion.

setVisible

public void setVisible(boolean isVis)

Overrides:

setVisible in class Window

placeProgressBar

public JProgressBar placeProgressBar()

Creates a JProgressBar and places it in the the window. It will replace any other progress bar which has been placed by an earlier call of this method.

Returns:

the progress bar which has been placed

setCloseIsExit

public void setCloseIsExit()

Irrevocably marks this window as one for which the Close action has the same effect as the Exit action. Any Close invocation buttons are replaced with exit ones, duplicates removed, etc. Should be called before any call to addHelp(java.lang.String).

getToolBar

public JToolBar getToolBar()

Returns this window's toolbar. Any client which adds a group of tools to the toolbar should add a separator after the group.

Returns:

the toolbar

getWindowMenu

public JMenu getWindowMenu()

Returns this window's "Window" menu.

Returns:

the window menu

getHelpMenu

public JMenu getHelpMenu()

Returns:

the help menu

setMainHeading

public void setMainHeading(String text)

Sets the in-window text which heads up the main display area.

Parameters:

text - heading text

getMainArea

public JPanel getMainArea()

Returns the container which should be used for the main user component(s) in this window. It will have a BorderLayout.

Returns:

main container

getControlPanel

public JPanel getControlPanel()

Returns the container which should be used for controls and buttons. This will probably be placed below the mainArea.

Returns:

control container

getBodyPanel

public JComponent getBodyPanel()

Returns the panel containing the body of this window. This contains most of the content but not the parts that have to go at the top and bottom like the toolbar and progress bar.

Returns:

body panel

confirm

public boolean confirm(Object message,
                       String title)

title - confirmation window title

Returns:

true iff the user provides positive confirmation

createSaveTableAction

Parameters:

dataType - short textual description of the table content

tSrc - table supplier object

createImportTableAction

public Action createImportTableAction(String dataType,
                                      uk.ac.starlink.table.TableSource tSrc,
                                      String label)

Constructs and returns an action which allows a user to import a supplied table into TOPCAT as if it had just been loaded.

Parameters:

dataType - short textual description of the table content

Locates one window 'after' another one - probably a bit lower and to the right. The second window is repositioned relative to the first one.

Parameters:

first - first window, or null

second - second window

recursiveSetEnabled

public static void recursiveSetEnabled(Component comp,
                                       boolean enabled)
