I developed a software solution to connect Java components visually and it works fine. My only problem now is that my dashboard is surrounded by a jscrollpane and thats good. But if i get out of the dashboard so that the jscrollpane have to grow, all the lines drawed to connect the components are moving from they position. I have search for methods to get the real screen size of the jscollpane but found nothing.
To grow the jscrollpane if needed i use:
Point p = (mainPanel.getMousePosition());
if(mainPanel.getWidth() - (p.x) < tmp.getWidth() && mainPanel.getHeight() - (p.y) < tmp.getHeight())
{
dim = new Dimension(dim.width+(mainPanel.getWidth()-p.x),dim.height+mainPanel.getHeight() - (p.y));
}
else if(mainPanel.getHeight() - (p.y) < tmp.getHeight())
{
dim = new Dimension(dim.width,dim.height+mainPanel.getHeight() - (p.y));
}
else if(mainPanel.getWidth() - (p.x) < tmp.getWidth())
{
dim = new Dimension(dim.width+(mainPanel.getWidth()-p.x),dim.height);
}
mainPanel.setPreferredSize(dim);
While the mouse is dragged.
So i need to get the coordinates of the left top point in the jscrollpane to calculate the new coordinates or something that shifts the lines correct back.
To draw the lines i use:
@Override
public void paint(Graphics g) {
super.paint(g);
Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;
g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
// test
Line2D tmp_line;
for (int i = 0; i < abuttons.size(); i++) {
// System.out.println(abuttons.get(i).out);
if (abuttons.get(i).out != null) {
int x1 = abuttons.get(i).getLocation().x
+ abuttons.get(i).connectBtn_right.getLocation().x
+ 12;
int y1 = abuttons.get(i).getLocation().y
+ abuttons.get(i).connectBtn_right.getLocation().y
+ 9 + 75;
int x2 = abuttons.get(i).out.getLocation().x
+ abuttons.get(i).out.connectBtn_left.getLocation().x
+ 12;
int y2 = abuttons.get(i).out.getLocation().y
+ abuttons.get(i).out.connectBtn_left.getLocation().y
+ 9 + 75;
tmp_line = new Line2D.Double(x1, y1, x2, y2);
g2d.setPaint(Color.BLACK);
g2d.setStroke(new BasicStroke(1.5f));
g2d.draw(tmp_line);
}
}
if (point1 != null && point2 != null) {
line2d = new Line2D.Double(point1, point2);
g2d.setPaint(Color.RED);
g2d.setStroke(new BasicStroke(1.5f));// set stroke size
g2d.draw(line2d);
}
}
Thanks for any help
