I am attempting to fabricate a JTable to get behavior similar to Windows Explorer in Icons view mode. I am able to rebuild the model, shrinking and growing the number of columns, as the size of the table's parent changes. I have no doubt that I will be able develop a renderer that can make each cell look appropriate. I call JTable.setCellSelectionEnabled(true) and JTable.setSelectionMode(ListSelectionModel.MULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION); I also integrated code from Java Bug 4314209 that seems to fix a selection anomaly. Here's the problem: assume a 3 by 3 table. I select cell 0,0 and it correctly gets highlighted. I hold the control-key down and select 1,1 and, unfortunately, 0,0 and 0,1 and 1,0 and 1,1 all get selected when I really just want 0,0 and 1,1. If I initially select 0,0 and then control-key select 2,1 the following are selected: 0,0 , 0,1 , 2,0 , 2,1. The table utilizes a DefaultListSelectionModel for rows and a separate one for columns. DefaultListSelectionModel.addSelectionInterval() explicitly states that it is going to change the selection to be the union of the current and the requested selection, and I'm thinking that that union over the 2 models is the culprit. I'm looking at DefaultListSelectionModel with an eye to subclassing it with my own code but it's fairly forbidding so I figured I'd check with the list. It's ironic that ctrl-selection is a problem because I would think that shift-selection (i.e. extending a selection) would be more difficult. I'm thinking I might need to somehow track on my own the control selections and then merge them somehow but who knows? I really just want to select random cells and not have ctrl-select select more than one more additional cell. Surely others have had this desire and have confronted this problem. ??? Any suggestions? thanks much, rand -------------------------------- Rand Clark Software Design Engineer Transoft Networks a Hewlett-Packard company 805.883.4315 [EMAIL PROTECTED] -------------------------------- _______________________________________________ Advanced-swing mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://eos.dk/mailman/listinfo/advanced-swing
