Package details
Swing has lot of components built-in but still some are missing. This project
provides the developer community with these missing components, components
inspired (copied?!) from modern user interfaces.
The Components
* JButtonBar
it is a bar made of buttons [sic], you have seen it in Mozilla Firebird,
IntelliJ.
* JOutlookBar
as seen in Outlook, it stacks components together and allows only one of the
stack to be visible at a given time. The component extends the JTabbedPane, no
surprise regarding its API.
* JTaskPane and JTaskPaneGroup
lot of recent applications bring contextual item lists from which you can pick
tasks related to the current selection or context. The JTaskPane and
JTaskPaneGroup deliver this feature to java applications.
* JFontChooser and JDirectoryChooser
surprisingly Swing has no font chooser and using the original JFileChooser to
select a directory is kind of not so user friendly...well, you know how it
works. JFontChooser and JDirectoryChooser address these two issues.
* PropertySheet
it puts together a list of properties and their editors. Each property is given
a name, a type, a description.It also supports JavaBeans through BeanInfos and
PropertyDescriptors.
* JTipOfTheDay
it brings the famous "Tip Of The Day" dialog to the Swing toolkit.
