I am wondering how I can realize something like this:

row 1

row 2

HEADLINE like 27.01.2011

row 3

row 4

HEADLINE like 28.01.2011

row 5

These "fake" rows should be only information-rows and not real rows. I couldn't find something like that.

I hope you understand my problem.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!

  • not supported in core nor any pre-fabricated table variants. As @mKorbel suggested (though not showed ;-), a tree-table-like component might be an alternative (though not exactly what you want): a two-level (below the root) treeTableModel with first level being the header and its children the "real" data – kleopatra Dec 20 '11 at 11:02

I think that you have look at JTreeTable, JXTreeTable by SwingX, OutLine by NetBeans, nice workaround by aephyr and one non-free product by JideSoft

  • hhmmm... TreeTable just doesn't look like what i am searching :( I have a table, say of 10000 rows, sorted by Date. The only thing i want is to highlight a new Day in my table with a little "headline" between the rows... – user1106224 Dec 19 '11 at 16:59
  • +1 for a comprehensive list of tree-oriented views. Does the image show [`RowNumberTable`](http://tips4java.wordpress.com/2008/11/18/row-number-table/)? – trashgod Dec 20 '11 at 03:20
  • The RowHeader is ok, but not exactly what i want. I "just" want a headline ABOVE a row. With the RowHeader there is alot of needed extra space and "overhead". – user1106224 Dec 20 '11 at 09:05

    a tree-table-like component might indeed be the nearest off the shelf component to get - but (cough) your screenshot doesn't get very near to the original requirement – kleopatra Dec 20 '11 at 10:58
  • @kleopatra I think that s/he has only some problem with different Class types in one Column :-) – mKorbel Dec 20 '11 at 11:08
  • could well be, but if so - why do you throw treeTables and row headers into the ring? That would be random clutter in relation to the problem as you see it ;-) – kleopatra Dec 20 '11 at 11:54
