public class ScrollPane
extends Container

A container class which implements automatic horizontal and/or vertical scrolling for a single child component. The display policy for the scrollbars can be set to:

  1. as needed: scrollbars created and shown only when needed by scrollpane
  2. always: scrollbars created and always shown by the scrollpane
  3. never: scrollbars never created or shown by the scrollpane

The state of the horizontal and vertical scrollbars is represented by two objects (one for each dimension) which implement the Adjustable interface. The API provides methods to access those objects such that the attributes on the Adjustable object (such as unitIncrement, value, etc.) can be manipulated.

Certain adjustable properties (minimum, maximum, blockIncrement, and visibleAmount) are set internally by the scrollpane in accordance with the geometry of the scrollpane and its child and these should not be set by programs using the scrollpane.

If the scrollbar display policy is defined as "never", then the scrollpane can still be programmatically scrolled using the setScrollPosition() method and the scrollpane will move and clip the child's contents appropriately. This policy is useful if the program needs to create and manage its own adjustable controls.

The placement of the scrollbars is controlled by platform-specific properties set by the user outside of the program.

The initial size of this container is set to 100x100, but can be reset using setSize().

Insets are used to define any space used by scrollbars and any borders created by the scroll pane. getInsets() can be used to get the current value for the insets. If the value of scrollbarsAlwaysVisible is false, then the value of the insets will change dynamically depending on whether the scrollbars are currently visible or not.

Field Detail

SCROLLBARS_AS_NEEDED

public static final int SCROLLBARS_AS_NEEDED
Specifies that horizontal/vertical scrollbar should be shown only when the size of the child exceeds the size of the scrollpane in the horizontal/vertical dimension.

SCROLLBARS_ALWAYS

public static final int SCROLLBARS_ALWAYS
Specifies that horizontal/vertical scrollbars should always be shown regardless of the respective sizes of the scrollpane and child.

SCROLLBARS_NEVER

public static final int SCROLLBARS_NEVER
Specifies that horizontal/vertical scrollbars should never be shown regardless of the respective sizes of the scrollpane and child.
Constructor Detail

ScrollPane

public ScrollPane()
Create a new scrollpane container with a scrollbar display policy of "as needed".

ScrollPane

public ScrollPane(int scrollbarDisplayPolicy)
Create a new scrollpane container.
Parameters:
scrollbarDisplayPolicy - policy for when scrollbars should be shown
Method Detail

addImpl

protected final void addImpl(Component comp,
                             Object constraints,
                             int index)
Adds the specified component to this scroll pane container. If the scroll pane has an existing child component, that component is removed and the new one is added.
Overrides:
addImpl in class Container
Parameters:
comp - the component to be added
constraints - not applicable
index - position of child component (must be <= 0)

getScrollbarDisplayPolicy

public int getScrollbarDisplayPolicy()
Returns the display policy for the scrollbars.
Returns:
the display policy for the scrollbars

getViewportSize

public Dimension getViewportSize()
Returns the current size of the scroll pane's view port.
Returns:
the size of the view port in pixels

getHScrollbarHeight

public int getHScrollbarHeight()
Returns the height that would be occupied by a horizontal scrollbar, which is independent of whether it is currently displayed by the scroll pane or not.
Returns:
the height of a horizontal scrollbar in pixels

getVScrollbarWidth

public int getVScrollbarWidth()
Returns the width that would be occupied by a vertical scrollbar, which is independent of whether it is currently displayed by the scroll pane or not.
Returns:
the width of a vertical scrollbar in pixels

getVAdjustable

public Adjustable getVAdjustable()
Returns the Adjustable object which represents the state of the vertical scrollbar.

getHAdjustable

public Adjustable getHAdjustable()

setScrollPosition

public void setScrollPosition(int x,
                              int y)
Scrolls to the specified position within the child component. A call to this method is only valid if the scroll pane contains a child. Specifying a position outside of the legal scrolling bounds of the child will scroll to the closest legal position. Legal bounds are defined to be the rectangle: x = 0, y = 0, width = (child width - view port width), height = (child height - view port height). This is a convenience method which interfaces with the Adjustable objects which represent the state of the scrollbars.
Parameters:
x - the x position to scroll to
y - the y position to scroll to

setScrollPosition

public void setScrollPosition(Point p)
Scrolls to the specified position within the child component. A call to this method is only valid if the scroll pane contains a child and the specified position is within legal scrolling bounds of the child. Specifying a position outside of the legal scrolling bounds of the child will scroll to the closest legal position. Legal bounds are defined to be the rectangle: x = 0, y = 0, width = (child width - view port width), height = (child height - view port height). This is a convenience method which interfaces with the Adjustable objects which represent the state of the scrollbars.
Parameters:
p - the Point representing the position to scroll to

getScrollPosition

public Point getScrollPosition()
Returns the current x,y position within the child which is displayed at the 0,0 location of the scrolled panel's view port. This is a convenience method which interfaces with the adjustable objects which represent the state of the scrollbars.
Returns:
the coordinate position for the current scroll position

setLayout

public final void setLayout(LayoutManager mgr)
Sets the layout manager for this container. This method is overridden to prevent the layout mgr from being set.
Overrides:
setLayout in class Container
Parameters:
mgr - the specified layout manager

doLayout

public void doLayout()
Lays out this container by resizing its child to its preferred size. If the new preferred size of the child causes the current scroll position to be invalid, the scroll position is set to the closest valid position.
Overrides:
doLayout in class Container
See Also:
Component.validate()

layout

public void layout()
Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by doLayout().

Overrides:
layout in class Container

printComponents

public void printComponents(Graphics g)
Prints the component in this scroll pane.
Overrides:
printComponents in class Container
Parameters:
g - the specified Graphics window
See Also:
Component.print(java.awt.Graphics), Component.printAll(java.awt.Graphics)

addNotify

public void addNotify()
Creates the scroll pane's peer.
Overrides:
addNotify in class Container
Tags copied from class: Container
See Also:
Component.isDisplayable(), Container.removeNotify()

paramString

public String paramString()
Description copied from class: Container
Returns the parameter string representing the state of this container. This string is useful for debugging.
Overrides:
paramString in class Container
Tags copied from class: Container
Returns:
the parameter string of this container.
