TablePane concept...
(Sorry for posting here, but I am currently unable to post to
pivot-user@. Raised INFRA-2109 about it)
Guys,
I am struggling with TablePane, as it consistently refuse to work in a
fashion that I find "natural".
If I add() the ImageView instances to it, they all show up in cell
[0,0], and if I call setCellComponent() I get a
IndexOutOfBoundsException, even though I have added 2 columns and 1
row (in that order) before trying to set the cell.
But before starting on the real deal, I created an example where the
Rows were added before the Columns, and that worked.
How is it really intended to work?
Looking at the code, If one adds a Row, then all Components found in
the Row is added to the Pane, but I one adds a Column this is not
done.
Why do I need to bother with these kinds of details at all? Shouldn't
it be so much more natural to just have an indicator on how many rows
and columns one want, and a easier way to insert a new empty row or
column?
I just don't understand the thinking here...
Cheers

Without getting hugs from nice girls in a night club I was able to add
grandinj to the dev group.
Now we only need an answer to the question: what the hell are you
doing reading this list when you can get hugs from girls *in a
nightclub*? :-P

TablePane concept and tutorials and wiki
Posted by Noel Grandin <no...@gmail.com>.
When I see these kinds of emails bouncing back and forth, I start
thinking maybe we need an equivalent of the Swing Tutorial for Pivot.
I know that I spent an awful lot of time in there when I was learning swing.
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/TOC.html
Creating something similar in the Pivot wiki by cut'n'pasting from the
mailing list would be a good way to start.
Ah, I see we have one already. I was going to add Greg's reply to the
wiki at
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/PIVOT/Table+Panes
but my newly created account does not seem to have permission (username:
grandinj)
Can someone grant me edit access to the Pivot wiki?
Thanks, Noel.

It does.
Thanks.

TablePane has a "columns" collection and a "rows" collection. In WTKX,
you might define a table pane as follows:
<TablePane>
<columns>
<TablePane.Column width="120"/>
<TablePane.Column width="240"/>
</columns>
<rows>
<TablePane.Row height="80">
<ImageView image="a.png"/>
<ImageView image="b.png"/>
</TablePane.Row>
<TablePane.Row height="160">
<ImageView image="c.png"/>
<ImageView image="d.png"/>
</TablePane.Row>
</rows>
</TablePane>
This table pane would contain 4 ImageView cells, with column widths
and row heights as specified. It is analogous to defining a table in
HTML, only we require you to define your columns up front (so we don't
have to infer them) and we don't require the equivalent of <td> tags
(any component can be a cell).
In Java, it would look like this:
TablePane tablePane = new TablePane();
tablePane.getColumns().add(new TablePane.Column(120));
tablePane.getColumns().add(new TablePane.Column(240));
TablePane.Row row1 = new TablePane.Row(80);
row1.add(new ImageView(Image.load(getClass().getResource("a.png"))));
row1.add(new ImageView(Image.load(getClass().getResource("b.png"))));
tablePane.getRows().add(row1);
TablePane.Row row2 = new TablePane.Row(160);
row2.add(new ImageView(Image.load(getClass().getResource("c.png"))));
row2.add(new ImageView(Image.load(getClass().getResource("d.png"))));
tablePane.getRows().add(row2);
Hope this helps.
