How to highlight the text of a jtable cell?

I have a table that contains some data. When I preview the text in the text box, the table appearance, changes and text boxes disappear. I don’t know why, I don’t know if I am doing it right.

here is my whole code ..

package test;

import java.awt.BorderLayout;

    setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    setBounds(100, 100, 450, 346);
    contentPane = new JPanel();
    contentPane.setBorder(new EmptyBorder(5, 5, 5, 5));
    setContentPane(contentPane);
    contentPane.setLayout(null);

    JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane();
    scrollPane.setBounds(63, 52, 305, 191);
    contentPane.add(scrollPane);

    String columns [] = {
             "First Name", "Last Name", "Middle Name"

                sorter.setRowFilter(null);
            }else{
                sorter.setRowFilter(RowFilter.regexFilter("(?i)" + textForSearch));
            }

            for(int i =0;i<table.getColumnCount();i++){
                table.getColumnModel().getColumn(i).setCellRenderer(getRenderer());
            }
        }
    });
    textField.setBounds(262, 21, 86, 20);

}

   private TableCellRenderer getRenderer() {

                    textField.setText(arg1.toString());
                    String string = arg1.toString();
                    if(string.contains(textForSearch)){
                        int indexOf = string.indexOf(textForSearch);
                        try {

                        } catch (BadLocationException e) {

        };
    }
}

  • You are using a search text box as a means of displaying table cells. This makes all cells look like text boxes and the search box disappears from its original location.
  • You are installing an ActionListener to render a cell inside an ActionListener. This means that # 1 will happen after you try to find something.

I would suggest a slightly different approach:

Instead of getRender () returning an anonymous TableCellRender (), extend your code a little more to extend the JLable to return so you can freely change properties like setBackground (), setForeground (), etc. with much more freedom.

You will find more information here: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/table/TableCellRenderer.html

public class DefaultTableCellRenderer extends JLabel implements TableCellRenderer {

}

      



Here is a complete JList example that applies the same to a JTable, moving on to the appropriate interfaces: (focus on the last two if-else)

public class ThumbnailCellRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer {

    private static final Color HIGHLIGHT_COLOR = new Color(0,0,128);

    public ThumbnailCellRenderer() {
        this.setOpaque(true);
        this.setIconTextGap(12);
    }
    @Override
    public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList list, Object value,
            int index, boolean isSelected, boolean cellHasFocus) {
        // COMPLETE BODY
        Photo photo = (Photo)value;
        ImageIcon thumbnail = photo.getThumbnail();
        if(thumbnail != null) {
            this.setToolTipText("Double Click for Slideshow - "+photo.getName());
            this.setIcon(thumbnail);
            this.setText(photo.getCaption()+" - "+Utilities.getReadableDateAndTime(photo.getTime()));
        } else {
            this.setIcon(Icons.IMAGEREMOVED_ICON.get());
            this.setText(photo.getCaption()+" - "+Utilities.getReadableDateAndTime(photo.getTime())+" - Physical Image Removed");
        }
        if(isSelected) {
            setBackground(HIGHLIGHT_COLOR);
            setForeground(Color.WHITE);
        } else {
            setBackground(Color.WHITE);
            setForeground(Color.black);
        }
        return this;
    }

}

      

Finally, you just added the render as you do in your MainFrame code.

I hope this helps.
